|
||||||
|
can choose their preferred language using the :ref:`language selector <translate/language-selector>`.

Your website is displayed in the language that matches the visitor's browser's language, unless that

The :ref:`Translate <translate/translate>` feature on your website allows automatic translation of

particular language has not been installed. In this case, the website is displayed in the

standard terms and provides a tool for manual content translation.

in the language menu.

Translating the contents
|
|
||||||
========================
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Once the languages have been added, you can translate the contents of your website. To do so, go to
|
|
||||||
your website, select the language from the language menu and click the :guilabel:`Translate` button
|
|
||||||
on the right part of the task bar to activate the **translation mode**.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||

||||||
:alt: Translate button
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
As a result:
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- Text strings that have already been translated are highlighted in green;
|
|
||||||
- Text strings that need to be translated are highlighted in yellow.

|
||||||
:alt: Text to be translated highlighted in yellow
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can then replace the original text with the translation by clicking the block, editing its
|
|
||||||
contents and saving.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. tip::
|
|
||||||
- Once the languages have been installed, you can also translate some items (e.g.,
|
|
||||||
the product's name and description) from the backend (e.g., in the product template). To do so,
|
|
||||||
click the language code (e.g., :guilabel:`EN`) next to the text you want to translate (e.g.,
|
|
||||||
the product name) and add the translation.

||||||

||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
- You can also :doc:`export/import translations <../../../../developer/howtos/translations>`
|
|
||||||
to translate multiple items (e.g., product names and descriptions) in one go.

|
||||||

|
||||||
|
|
||||||

|
||||||

|
||||||
|
so, click the :guilabel:`Header` block and go to the :guilabel:`Navbar` section to edit the
|
||||||
|

Translate your website
|
||||||
|
======================
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Select your desired language from the language selector to see your content in another language.
|
||||||
|
Then, click the :guilabel:`Translate` button in the top-right corner to manually activate the
|
||||||
|
translation mode so that you can translate what has not been translated automatically by Odoo.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Translated text strings are highlighted in green; text strings that were not translated
|
||||||
|
automatically are highlighted in yellow.

||||||
|
.. image:: translate/translated-text.png
|
||||||
|
:alt: Entering the translation mode
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
In this mode, you can only translate text. To change the page's structure, you must edit the master
|
||||||
|
page, i.e., the page in the original language of the database. Any changes made to the master page
|
||||||
|
are automatically applied to all translated versions.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
To replace the original text with the translation, click the block, edit its contents, and save.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. note::
|
||||||
|
When a website supports multiple languages, the content is accessible through different URLs,
|
||||||
|
depending on the language selected. For example,
|
||||||
|
`https://www.mywebsite.com/shop/product/my-product-1` is the URL to the master page, in English,
|
||||||
|
while `https://www.mywebsite.com/fr_FR/shop/product/mon-produit-1` is the URL to the French
|
||||||
|
version of the same page.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
.. tip::
|
||||||
|
Once the desired language is installed, you can translate some items from the backend (e.g., the
|
||||||
|
product's name in the product form). To do so, click the language code (e.g., :guilabel:`EN`) next
|
||||||
|
to the text you want to translate and add the translation.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Content visibility by language
|
||||||
|
------------------------------
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You can hide content (such as images or videos, for example) depending on the language. To do so:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
#. Click :guilabel:`Edit` and select an element of your website;
|
||||||
|
#. Go to the :guilabel:`Text - Image` section and :guilabel:`Visibility`;
|
||||||
|
#. Click :guilabel:`No condition` and select :guilabel:`Conditionally` instead;
|
||||||
|
#. Go to :guilabel:`Languages` to configure the condition(s) to apply by selecting
|
||||||
|
:guilabel:`Visible for` or :guilabel:`Hidden for`, and click :guilabel:`Choose a record` to
|
||||||
|
decide which languages are impacted.
