Create a Multilingual Site

Create a Multilingual Site

Creating a multilingual site is a multistep process. It involves defining the languages you want your site to support, adding translated content for each language, and letting your site visitors choose their preferred language.

Required Editions

Available in: Salesforce Classic

Available for purchase in: Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited Editions

Available (with limitations) in: Developer Edition

User Permissions Needed
To add and manage language options:

Site.com Publisher User field enabled on the user detail page

AND

Site administrator or designer role assigned at the site level

To edit language content: Site.com Publisher User or Contributor User field enabled on the user detail page and any role assigned at the site level
  1. Set the default site language. It's important that you set a default language before you add translated content to your site.
  2. Add languages to the site.
  3. Set options for each language, such as the display language and fallback language.
  4. Add content for each site language using one of these steps.
    • Edit the page content for each language directly.
    • Export the content for translation and then import the translated content.
  5. Add a Language Selector page element to your site pages, so authenticated site users can choose their preferred language.
  6. If you have a self-service community built on the Customer Service template, add the Language Selector component to your community pages. This component lets guest users (users who aren't logged in) choose their preferred language.
Tip
Tip After you add language-specific content to your site, you can share a separate preview URL for each language. Switch to the desired language in the Site.com Studio language selector and click View Anonymous Preview. Then copy the link to send it to your reviewers.
