Nested Segmentation?

Has anyone successfully nested segmentation for dynamic display on Landing pages? Scenario is that we were going to segment by language-locale to present a language experience, but within each of those be able to segment and provide a different form based on what we know about the user but in language.

Thoughts? GO!

I do not think nesting is possible within the segmentation. Would love to see if anyone has implemented a work around for this. 

We had a similar challenge for one of our clients. We had to create multi-lingual forms and basis the inferred country, we would display the localized version of the form.

Did you try creating a separate custom field Language-locale, which combines the data for the current Language and Locale fields, and uses that for segmentation? Will that cause any issues?

Re: Nested Segmentation?

So we ultimately went a different route. We ended up segmenting the entire page based on LCID, except for the forms. We wrote some custom code that swapped out form labels based upon LCID. This allowed us to segment the form on an additional pivot since it no longer required the LCID segmentation. We did have to go back and add some additional code to store language based upon LCID the form was being displayed on.
