Working with Languages and Manipulators

When a specific language requires a manipulator you can this option with the ID of that specific language. If multiple languages require the same manipulator config, a comma separated list of language IDs can be provided.

When multiple language IDs are provided, the manipulator will apply its configuration to every content with those languages. So, if the manipulator adjusts the value of a specified field, the field for each language specified will be run through the manipulator with the set config individually. And, if the manipulator adds or replaces a specified field, that field will be added/replaced for each language specified.

As such, be aware, if a different value is required for different languages, then you will (often) need to create multiple manipulators with appropriate config for each language. i.e., The regex on the same field for each language is different. Then a manipulator for each language may be required. Or if a liquid template specifies values for a specific language to parse and apply to, the field may need to be added to that specific language.
