How to implement localization in web.sitemap

Question

Can you explain how to implement localization in web.sitemap please?

Answer 1

Use a global resource file.

App_GlobalResources\Web.sitemap.resx

Then use keys in the web.sitemap like;

<siteMapNode url="somepage.aspx" title="Name"  resourceKey="PageName"/>

Answer 2

If you have global resources you can use it like this

<siteMapNode url="~/Default.aspx" Title="$resources:SiteMapLocalizations,HomePageTitle"></siteMapNode>

Where SiteMapLocalizations: is the resource Name HomePageTitle: thee resource Key

It's worthy to notice that you also need to set enableLocalization="true" at siteMap tag. Otherwise it will not work.
