Before You Begin

Before you can start translating your "FAQs" page, you will need to make sure your Translation settings are properly configured, including linking a Google translate key.

Once you have enabled multiple languages, you can begin the process of translating your FAQs page.

 

Translate FAQs Categories

First, you'll want to update any FAQs categories you have created for your page.  This will come in handy later on when you are translating and sorting individual FAQs into the proper category.  To begin, go to:

Settings > Design Forms & Website > FAQ > FAQs > Categories

On the "Manage Your Categories" page, click "Options", "Edit" next to the category name you'd like to translate.

On the Edit Category page, click the blue "Change" button next to the language flag/name.  

A pop-up window will appear where you can select which language to switch to.  Click the radio button next to the language and click "Change".

Use the blue "Translate with Google" buttons to translate each content box to the new language. 

Click the blue "Save Category" button at the bottom of the page to save the translated category.  

The newly translated category will be listed under the section for your second language.  If you look under the "Language" column, you will now see "2/2", meaning both languages have a published post. 

You can switch between versions by clicking the flag icon next to the "Add Category" button.  

 

Translate FAQs

Once you have translated your FAQ categories, you can translate each FAQ.  Go to: 

Settings > Design Forms & Website > FAQ

Select "Options", "Edit" next to the post you would like to translate. 

On the Edit FAQ page, click the blue "Change" button next to the language flag/name.  

A pop-up window will appear where you can select which language to switch to.  Click the radio button next to the language and click "Change".

After changing the default language at the top, blue "Translate with Google" buttons will be inserted next to each content box. Click the button to translate each section.  

 

Once you have finished translating the post, click the blue "Save" button.

The newly translated post will be listed under the category for your second language.  If you look under the "Language" column, you will now see "2/2", meaning both languages have a published post. 

You can switch between versions by clicking the flag icon next to the "Add Blog Post" button.
