<h3>How to use</h3>
<p>You can manage translated templates in two ways:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>(recommended)</strong> create linked translations for a template and only set display conditions on the default language.</li>
<li>create separated translations for a template with their own display conditions.</li>
</ul>
<p>See an example:</p>
<pre><code>Site languages:
 - EN (main)
 - ES
 - IT

- Option 1 (linked translations only main language has display conditions):
╔═ Archive Template A (EN) -> condition category is "Red (EN)"
╠═ Archive Template A (ES) -> none (in front checks if category is ES translation of "Red (EN)")
╚═ Archive Template A (IT) -> none (in front checks if category is IT translation of "Red (EN)")

- Option 2 (not linked translations, all languages has display conditions):
══ Archive Template B (EN) -> condition category is "Red (EN)"
══ Archive Template B (ES) -> condition category is "Rojo (ES)"
══ Archive Template B (IT) -> condition category is "Rosso (IT)"
</code></pre>
