On my sanity, it gives an error:
Invalid property value The property value is stored as a value type that does not match the expected type. Developer info The value of this property must be of type object according to the schema. Mismatching value types typically occur when the schema has recently been changed. The current value (string)

Hey User! Is this causing your Studio to crash or is it warning you that had already entered text into your
titlefield as a string before you changed the schema to an object? If it's the latter, you can just unset the field to continue using your
localeString.

It shows this when I added the fields for the language and change my type to object, before that everything is fine. I'm not sure what else is missing on my code.

// First, we must import the schema creator
import createSchema from 'part:@sanity/base/schema-creator'
// Then import schema types from any plugins that might expose them
import schemaTypes from 'all:part:@sanity/base/schema-type'
// Then we give our schema to the builder and provide the result to Sanity
export default createSchema({
// We name our schema
name: 'default',
// Then proceed to concatenate our document type
// to the ones provided by any plugins that are installed
types: schemaTypes.concat([
/* Your types here! */

Got it. It looks like you entered text into the field before you changed the schema to an
object. You can click the
Reset Valuebutton and you'll be able to edit the field.

I dont know if I need to add internalization, but I follow this youtube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bNYOn72c1g
It doesn't work, any input how to fix the error?
Also is there a video documentation that basically shows how to add multiple language or add translation using sanity and Next js? probably better so I can follow the tutorial, please advice

Is that error happening on your frontend? If so, it looks like you're trying to render the entire
titleobject instead of
title.enor
<http://title.fr|title.fr>. I don't think anyone's ever created a Sanity/Next specific video for i18n. There's a guide on i18n routing here , though.

I have another question, how should I create translation on the content blog sanity?Under the content category, I tried to add the EN and FR following the video, but doesn't seem to work.
Also if I want to have 2 images en and fr, how should I add it in my schema?
