@José Fournier can you please confirm this issue is really specific to Fedora websites is using Zanata?
I feel like your first comment could totally apply to any other projects.

It's true that the project layout is non-standard, but depending on the source tree setup, it may be quite difficult to push/pull all those Fedora websites as multiple files under a single Zanata version (eg F27) in a single project. For instance, perhaps each website lives in a separate git repo. Not easy to make that a single project version, at least with the Zanata client we have right now.
It seems like this use case is related to the version groups problem.
eg the Fedora-27 group could contain alt.fedoraproject.org/F27, budget.fedoraproject.org/F27, etc etc - ie one project per website, one version per branch, all tied together by the F27 version group.

The issue was due to the incorrect use of version and file structure in Zanata.

@José Fournier
Looking at the project now in Zanata (https://fedora.zanata.org/project/view/fedora-web), I think the project was not set up according to how Zanata would structure a project. All the "versions" in https://fedora.zanata.org/project/view/fedora-web contains only 1 file to be translated, which suggests that all of them should be inside a version under the project.
The more appropriate structure would be a list of version named "F26, F27, F28..." under the https://fedora.zanata.org/project/view/fedora-web. Consolidate all the single file into one of the version, e.g F27
That way, when you navigate into F27, you all see a screen of image2 with a list of languages on the left side, but on the right side, it will be a list of files for F27, e.g. alt.fedoraproject.org, budget.fedoraproject.org
It is best to contact the project maintainers to discuss about restructuring.

Hi Damian,
I am not sure I understand you explanation. In all Fedora project there are versions — generally Fxx e.g. F27 and master. Each version includes a collection of documents (files) as you explain. The only difference is that when you try to know what is the progress of work for the files in the project for a given version and for your own language, you need to pass through the 3 stages I described above and do so for each file.
I don't know what to do to make my point be considered. At first, I wanted to declare a feature request on Bugzilla for Fedora but I had trouble finding under which component to do so, thus I declared it here.
I am now going to fill a feature request on Bugzilla under a rather imprecise component called Localization.
I will refer to this page so your comment will be a good starting base to make me understood.
Regards
As a translator or a reviewer, whenever I try to have an overview of the progress of work for a project, I am presented a list of files in the project with a global (for all languages) percentage of translation that I am not interested in. What I would like to have is a list of files in the project with a specific (for my own language) percentage of translation.
Instead of this, if I want to know what is the progress of work (translation in my own language) for files in the project I need to :
select one file;
select my language and look at the result
then come back to the file list to choose an other and redo the same.
These 3 operations — that I have to repeat for each file — is generally long and fastidious. Why not to have filtering operating for a single language at a time ?
