Experience fragment Localization issue

[bpeddapudi]

I am working on a project where experience fragments and pages are being translated. I am using an experience fragment in a page, when I got into a the language copy (translated ja_jp page) it not pulling the translated experience fragment. It's due to the folder structure of experience fragment which I can't change now. Is there any way to make translated experience fragment to show up in the page? 

When I copy the experience fragment at "content/experience-fragments/alexac/ja_jp/myef/master" to "content/experience-fragments/alexac/jp/ja_jp/myef/master". I can see the translated fragment in the page as expected. But unfortunately I can't move the content now.

Translated page path (example only): https://tester.com/content/alexac/jp/ja_jp/products/mypage.html

Experience fragment path: 

https://tester.com/aem/experience-fragments.html/content/experience-fragments/alexac/ja_jp/myef/master

Localization documentation I was referring to:

https://experienceleague.adobe.com/docs/experience-manager-core-components/using/components/experien...

I would appreciate any advice from the community.

Hi,

You can write custom class which implements ExperienceFragment and in initModel() update the XF path as per your requirement.

I ended up creating a custom model class. As we have the path for Experience fragment in JCR of the page I modified the path as my custom requirement. Updated the experience-fragment's htl code used my model.

Just updated data-sly-resource@path value. 

Default Experience fragment code below for reference:
