Translating Your Landing Page
FamilyID is now available in multiple languages. The Languages available with Google Cloud Translation feature are:
- Chinese
- Italian
- Portuguese
- Somali
- Vietnamese
- Spanish
FamilyID users can navigate the FamilyID platform in their preferred language.
All navigation on your organization's Landing Page is automatically available in the above languages. You can add translations of your custom content, such as your organization description, to make your entire landing page available in the languages you select. You have the option of manually translating your custom information or enabling the Google Cloud translation feature.
Adding the different languages to your Programs is an optional feature. By enabling the language feature, families will be able to view your programs and registration forms in the selected language(s) of your choice. Content that is native to FamilyID, including headings and standard fields, will be automatically translated.
For your custom content, we now offer a brand new interface for storing your custom translations. Your custom content includes:
- Your program description
- Your sections and section options
- Your add-ons
- Your custom fields
- Your policies and agreements
- Your payment and refund instructions
- And more!
A new feature added to FamilyID is translating all your custom content using Google Cloud Translation. You can now choose to translate your organization's custom information, such as Locations, Links, Contacts, etc., on your Landing Page and Programs using this feature.
Helpful hint: If you want families to answer your questions in English, make sure to let them know!
