How to handle db migrations of translated source page types?

[leonh]

I have a site with 1000's of edited translated versions of my class LocationPage(Page): model , about half are just 'alias' version of the source language with the other half being translated either partially or fully.

If I add a new field to LocationPage and run my db migrations then I see many warning about the translated page content being out of sync with the source model

I know this can be fixed on a page-by-page basis through the "sync translated pages" option on the source page.

However this will take a very long time to do through the interface....

Is there a 'proper' way to perform this in bulk , which could be written into a data migration?

Also I have run into error using "sync translated pages" when the source model has had a field removed?

wagtail-localize/wagtail_localize/segments/ingest.py

Line 230 in 8ee52c8

field = translated_obj.__class__._meta.get_field(field_name)

Is failing because there is a reference to a field on the source model that no longer exists

I'm not sure how best to handle migrations with regard to my translated content?

This would be very useful ! I don't know if I should reply in here. Should we create an issue for this?
