Translating Categories
Updated
by Jarratt Isted
Translating categories is pretty simple and you'll be able to keep track of what's translated with labels when you've switched to a secondary language.
If you haven't translated a category's information yet you'll see a Needs Translation label appear beside the title. Once you've translated that category the label will disappear.
Translating Categories
- Head to Content (or click here)
- Select a language from the language selector dropdown
- Click ⋮ More > Edit metadata on the category row you want to edit
- Translate the Title and Description
- Hit Save Changes
