Translating content

You can translate content that you and other community members created, without leaving your Jive community.

If Content Translation Service is enabled in your community, you can see a Translate link in the Actions menu of published content, including comments.

  • To translate the user-generated content into your default language, click Translate.

    Note: Your default language is the language that your Jive application is in. You can view your default language by clicking Your Avatar > Preferences and looking under Language. For more information, see Supported languages.

  • Comments are translated separately. Go to the comment you want to translate, and click Translate.

  • If you want to translate into a language other than your default, click the drop-down arrow next to Translate and select a language from the list that appears.

  • After content is translated, Translate changes to Undo Translation. Select that link, leave the page, or refresh the page to return the content to its original language.

Tip

The Translate link translates user-generated content only. If you want to use Jive in a different language, change your default language by clicking Your Avatar > Preferences and selecting a different Language.
