Translation Overview
The translation tool available in the platform allows each of your users to view your accessplanit platform in other languages. You can also enable our 'In-line Edit Mode' to make global changes to the translations, any changes you make to translations using the In-Line Edit Mode will apply for every user that views your accessplanit platform in that language.

Where to find the Translation area
You can toggle the language used in the platform from the top right, below the Administration menu option.
The language can also be set on the login screen, and within your Shopping Basket & Learner Portal
You can also view and update the language selection for each of your users via the Users DataGrid using the Preferred Language field.
How does the Translation tool work?
The accessplanit translation tool works by using Google Translate and updating the content of your accessplanit platform into your choice of language!
This means if Google translate updates their translations, you platform will automatically receive these updates too.
If you find that any of the translations are incorrect, or there is a better word to use, we have developed an inline dynamic edit tool which allows you as admins to easily override any individual term translated by Google, meaning that you can personalise and fix individual translated terms to be exactly what you need them to be. We recommend that a small amount of time is spent during implementation (or when you first begin to use the translation tool) to review and edit the most important terminology translations. We recommend this is also regularly reviewed thereafter. Please see What is the Dynamic Editor? lower in this page to learn more.
The Translation Tool will update all text that is 'off the shelf' within your platform; this includes all standard words, phrases, field names, and menu options, so that your users can navigate around your platform in their chosen language with ease.
The Translation Tool has been specifically designed to not translate any text that you or your users add into your platform; for example user's names, course names, course descriptions and venue names are not translated.

What is the Dynamic Editor?
The Translation Dynamic Edit Mode allows you to make changes to the platform translations. The changes you make will be applied to every user so you will not need to ask everyone to make these changes individually.
The Dynamic Editor is not available to all Training Administrators by default, please get in touch with a member of the accessplanit team if you would like to have access to this tool.
Please see our https://accessplanit.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/HG/pages/379813986 guide to learn how to use the Dynamic Editor
