If you are building a site in a language other than English, the Site Language feature allows you to translate certain elements into your target language. Simply select your target language and the built-in text on several widgets will be translated into your target language automatically. The widget text has been pre-translated and cannot be customized.
Note:
This feature should not be mistaken for the Multi-language feature, which translates all text on the site using Google Translate. When Multi-Language is enabled, the default site language is set automatically, the Site Language tab will be inactive, and changes to the default language must be set via the Multi-Language feature.
To configure your site language:
- In the side panel, click SEO & Settings, and then click Site Language. Please note that if you need to select a non-supported language, you must do it from the Pages panel.
- If you are changing the default language to a language that has already been added to your site, click the dropdown menu next to the default language and select from the existing languages. If you want to add a default language that was not previously added to your site, click Manage Languages and select a new language.
- Select a language. The languages offered include:
| Dutch | Italian |
| English | Turkish |
| English (UK) | Portuguese |
| French | Spanish (LATAM) |
| German | Spanish (Spain) |
| Polish | Finnish |
| Latvian | Lithuanian |
| Arabic | Swedish |
| Icelandic | Norwegian |
| Danish | Hebrew |
| Russian | Catalan |
| Romanian | Chinese (Traditional) |
| Chinese (Simplified) | Greek |
| Korean | Vietnamese |
| Indonesian |
Note:
- If you select a language that is not supported, the default widgets will be in English.
- Language tags in the source code will be updated according to the chosen language.
