Add course translations

1. Log in to the web app.

2. Select Training from the menu on the left-hand side.

3. If you're on the "Learn" page, click Content at the top of the page and select Courses.

4. Hover your cursor over the course and click View or Edit.

5. If you're editing an existing course and it's published, click Edit on the upper-right of the page.

6. Select Set up at the top of the page and select Languages on the left-hand side.

7. In this section, ensure the course's actual language matches the first row of the "Translations" table. If not, click Update language and update the language accordingly.

   

8. Click New translation.

9. In the pop-up window, click Download in the "Manual" section and open the downloaded file.

   

In the Excel file, you'll find the existing strings in your course in column A, with column B to be used for the translated strings.

For each string in column A, add the translation to the corresponding cell in column B. We recommend editing directly in Excel rather than copying and pasting from an external source.

Please take note of the following as you prepare your translations:

• Enter translated strings as plain text, and don't use any Excel formulas.

• Remove all formatting from your translation, including text color, borders, etc. Learn how to clear cells of formatting in Excel.

• Retain any code or Markdown formatting from the original strings to ensure your translated courses are visually aligned, including <span>, ##, **text**, etc.
