[TYPO3] multiple frontend versions of a site

[Andreas Becker]

Hi David

we did a similarthing here with one of our Minstries!

We changed the Parameters in CoolURI.XML and that did it. Also wie entered
the Names wie entered for L=1 L=2 and so on as Languages. TIP choose a
language which you will never use on your site and then you could have even
both available. Locations and Languages :-)

*<valuemaps>
   <valuemap>
      <parameter>L</parameter>
      <value key="">0</value>
      <value key="en">1</value>
      <value key="de">2</value>
      <value key="fr">3</value>
      <value key="Ort1">4</value>
      <value key="Ort2">5</value>
      <value key="Ort3">6</value>
      <value key="Hurra wer findet mich">7</value>
      <value key="Hier kann im Grunde alles moegliche stehen">8</value>
      <value key="wir machen das hier mit cooluri, geht sicher aber auch mit
anderem">9</value>
  </valuemap>
  </valuemaps>*
