Multilingual blog using Joomla Articles was created by Opendreas
Hello,

Is it possible to create a multilingual blog using Joomla Articles?
Due to the fact that in the settings you can select only 1 Joomla category for a blog, all articles will fall into one category. I thought it would be possible to make subcategories with different languages that would only appear for their language, for example: 

Blogs
- Language 1
- Language 2
- Language 3

but articles are created with the language setting "All", it is not clear whether all articles will be displayed in the Blogs category or only articles from the current language category. But even if it works, it is not a beautiful solution in my opinion. 

Another issue I noticed is that the text field in the Cassiopeia template on mobile cannot be scaled and is too small.

I just tried it and this solution does not work, all articles with the language setting "All" are displayed in the Blog category regardless of the subcategory language setting.

I also noticed that posts created through Community Builder are not displayed in Joomla Backend.
The problem is similar to this

With CB Blogs? No it is currently not. It will only accept "All" language categories and articles will be created with "All" language.

Another issue I noticed is that the text field in the Cassiopeia template on mobile cannot be scaled and is too small.

Can you provide a screenshot of your issue? TinyMCE should let you adjust it by dragging the corner unless you've non-HTML blog posts enabled.

I also noticed that posts created through Community Builder are not displayed in Joomla Backend.

Please be sure articles aren't being filtered using the filtering options. They should display perfectly fine in backend.

I'm sure there is no filtering.

The problem is not only in the backend, but the Activity also does not display the article. Something went wrong error message is displayed. Perhaps the problem arises due to the multilingual nature of the site.

PS: I can't attach a screenshot to the forum
