Localization
English is the default language for FreelanceEngine; however, the platform supports the addition and use of any language, allowing you to tailor your website to your preferred linguistic needs, regardless of your location. This feature enables you to select your desired language and modify all text within the theme accordingly.
Location
Navigate to: Engine Settings → Theme Options → Translations
Instructions
Website Language
Select your preferred language from the provided list. The system will automatically save your selection and update the website to reflect the change.
If your desired language is not available, you can add a new one at any time:
Click Add a New Language to input your language.
Press Enter on your keyboard to save.
Note: Adding a new language requires manual translation of the site’s content.
Translation Process
From the dropdown menu, choose the language you’ve added for your website.
Translate the text for each field as needed.
Click Save once all translations are complete.
Recommendation: To prevent data loss, save your progress after every 20 translated strings.
Important Note
After selecting a language, your site may become temporarily unresponsive. To mitigate this issue, we recommend using the Firefox browser when utilizing the localization feature, as it helps prevent potential crashes.
