Setting Up a New Language

Last Updated: 12/03/2015 Introduced in Verision: 2.0

To set up a new language, first enter a custom translation string, which is the text that should be translated. This text can be one or multiple words.
Then, you add the language for translation. Finally, you assign a value in that language for the custom translation string. 

Example

Begin by adding the custom translation string, the text that should be translated.

Navigate to the folder System > Administration > System Data > Languages and select Master Translation List in the folder data panel.

 selectMasterTranslationList
 
 
 
 
Click the Add String to Translate button.
AddStringToTranslate
In the New string translation pop-up,we enter the text to translate.

Next, add a language for translation.
Navigate to the Languages folder and select the Add Language button.
addLanguage
 
 
In the New Language pop-up, enter the language name and click OK.
nameLanguage
 
In the folder data panel, select the newly added language.

When viewing a list of details associated with the new language, the translation string entered displays. To associate the string with a translation into this language, select the text to translate, and select Set Translation from the actions menu in the lower right.
SetTranslation
 
 
In the New string translation pop-up, enter the translation for the selected string and click OK.
