Systems and methods for multilingual metadata

A system, comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions translatable by the at least one processor, the instructions when translated by the processor cause the system to manage multilingual metadata in a content management system by:
• receiving, through a user interface, an indication that a metadata field associated with a managed object contains multilingual metadata;
• creating, by the content management system, a new custom metadata table for the managed object using information from an original metadata table for the managed object;
• creating, by the content management system, a multilingual locale metadata table ancillary to the new custom metadata table to provide support for multilingual metadata;
• receiving, by the content management system through the user interface, at least two metadata field values for the metadata field, wherein the at least two metadata field values represent at least two languages;
• tagging, by the content management system, the metadata field with locale information;
• and
• storing, by the content management system, the locale information in the locale metadata table in association with the metadata field in the new custom metadata table.
