Working with translations

NB! This is not an automatic translation tool - it assumes that you have or will make a human translation of the document.

Possible error to avoid: that you paste spanish text in the english version. Make sure that you are in the spanish version before pasting by looking in the right column under translation.

Adding translations

  1. Click "Manage" under "Translations" to the right after you have started to edit the page.
  2. Choose a language from the list and click "Add"
  3. Click "translate" to start translating with the english version showing to the right - or click "Edit" if you want to edit without the English version displayed beside.
    NB! As default the translation will have all the English filled in.
  4. When you click "Edit" you are returned to the English version, to edit another language alone select it under translations and click edit.
  5. Remember to publish or save draft at the end as the translated versions are only stored once the English version is.

Editing translations

When translations exist they will show under Translations when you edit a page. To edit one of them select it and then click Edit.

Showing translations

Translations will show in the right column of articles. You can also link to the translation in the text if desired by copying the url and linking in any part of your article.

Deleting translations

  • Click "Manage" under translations
  • Tick off to the right of the translation you want to delete and then click "Delete"
