multilingual site created by duplicating the main site

is it possible to view or publish the contents of the main site blog (news) on secondary sites?

I am working on a multilingual site (4 languages).
I've created duplicates of the main site for each language so that I can translate the main menu and footer as well.
Is there a way to display the blog (news) of the main site on the other sites? So that the news can always be the same without having to individually update all the blogs of the different sites? Can you embed the blog code only (not the whole page) in a frame? how would it work on mobile?
Do you know of other solutions?
Unfortunately squarespace support has no solution.
Thank you

Can you share link to blog page where you want to embed? We can take a look.

Not related, but you can use bradguide to do this on same site, no need to create 4 sites. I just helped a member creating "3 category sites" on same site with different logos, logo link, main navigation, footer

hi

this is the link to the blog

https://sedagroup.com/seda-news

and this to the summary page

https://sedagroup.com/news

unfortunately we have already created two out of 6 clones
but I'm going to see the guide
thank you very much

Add a standard page on other sites >> Add a Code Block >> Paste this code

<iframe src="https://sedagroup.squarespace.com/seda-news" class="t-news"></iframe>

When you're done, share link to that page, we will continue check code to achieve your request.

hi

I had already tried with iframe but unfortunately I could not manage the display but only the frame size
in addition, the menu always appears
but maybe you have a solution... 🙂
thank you very much

Add to Test01news page header

<style>
  iframe.t-news {
    position: fixed !important;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 99999999999;
    overflow: hidden;
}
header#header {
    display: none;
}
body, html {
    overflow: hidden;
}
footer#footer-sections {
    display: none !important;
}

</style>

thank you very much
I'm sorry but we had to stop for a moment with work
i saw the solution
now you see the whole page without frames!
the problem is that the menus of the source page are also incorporated and not the translated menu
in this way by clicking on a menu item you can browse the source site ...
can only the page block be incorporated? without menu?
Thanks again

Use this new code in Page Header

<style>
  /* make iframe fullbleed */
  iframe.t-news {
    position: fixed !important;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 99999999999;
    overflow: hidden;
}
  /* disable scroll bar */
body, html {
    overflow: hidden;
}
  /* remove default footer */
footer#footer-sections {
    display: none !important;
}
/* hide header inside iframe */
  .code-block>div {
    overflow: hidden;
}
header#header {
    background-color: #dedede !important;
    z-index: 99999;
}
</style>
