Language Settings

Language setup configuration

You can set up the default language for your site and the other languages it should be available in.

Note

This is for the language of the user interface of Plone. It will not make the content you create be translatable. For that, you should enable the add-on “plone.app.multilingual” which is available in the add-on section

Should you have multiple languages, and plone.app.multilingual, enabled, you can set various options in the Negotiation tab:

Note

These are important choices, which are hard to change after you have made them, so think about them carefully when setting up multilingual sites.

The Plone community has much experience with multilingual sites, so do not hesitate to ask for advice on one of the support channels, see “Further help resources” in the footer of this website.
