InfiPlex uses Google translation for the translation values. An admin has the ability to override that translation by using the Translate tool. To access the Translate tool, go to the Admin Tools (wrench icon in upper right) and choose the purple Translate tool on the right hand side.
In the English/English text box, start typing the label that you want to change, when the label appears in the list of options, click on the box that contains that label you want to change. Scroll down the list to the language that you want to translate to and change the translation as neccesssary and save your changes. Your translation will now be the transation used on the user side, provided that the proper system settings are set to allow a user to select their preferred language.
Please note: The translate tool does not translate website content, just the system labels used in the Shop system.
Allowing a User to Choose Their Language
There are two system settings that must be set to allow a user to choose their preferred language when logging in. To set those settings use the Admin tools (wrench in upper right) Settings tool option and search for:
- user_account_language_options which is a comma separated list of two character values for the languages that a user is allowed to choose from, or leave blank to allow a choice of all languages in the system.
- user_account_enable_language_selection, value is yes or no. If set to yes, a user can select their preferred language when creating and updating their account.
The language preference will be a part of the user profile on the myaccount page of the site and a user will be able to edit their preferred language from there.
