[ic] Template Locale & page edit on 4.7

[matjones@mickey.korksoft.com]

Hi,

I am currently setting up a catalog on 4.7 which will allow me to have my
store
in several languages. I have read the docs and managed to get the images
and pages loaded from seperate 'english,german, french' directories. 
My only problem now is with the template files. Is there a key I can use
in the locale DB similar to: 
PageDir english
Locale fr_FR PageDir francais
Locale en_US PageDir english

Surely there must be a way for me to have seperate language directories
for my templates, since I cant use the [L][/L] tag within the
'components'.

Also, I am not sure if it is related to my particular installation, but
when I use the page edit tool in the UI it erases all the tags which
display the leftside category listing and the specials,cross-sells etc.
has anyone else experienced this??
 Hope someone can help

thanks
