Import ItemTypes in DW8 with multiple language layers

Hi guys,

I have a solution running 8.9.2.20 where I need to import ItemType based pages. The source files is pretty simple and each property from the source is mapped to a property from the ItemType.

In the DataIntegration job, I am using ItemProvider and I have selected a page on the master website, under which I want my pages to be created.

The first issue I've got is related to the pages created. The system creates pages in every language layer but without supplying a PageMasterPageID.

The second issue is related to ItemCreation. Even though the import job creates pages in each language, it creates a single instance of the ItemType and saves that ID on all pages created. And because of this, editing the item is impossible.

I have solved the first issue by running a SQL script at the end of the ImportJob. But the second issue seems a lot more complex.

Is there a LanguageManagement setting that I am missing or a known bug? Do I have any workaround solutions?

Just to be clear, Upgrading to 9.x is out of the question at least for the next year.

Thank you,
Adrian
