Make your website available in multiple languages

In this guide, you will learn how to internationalize your website by making it available in multiple languages. To learn more about why internationalization is important, visit the page Internationalization of a website.

Before you begin:

To add an international version, you must first have editor rights on the website.

Create an international version of a website

In RevasOS, different language versions of a website behave as separate entities, even if they are all linked to the same domain. To add a new language version to a website, follow these steps:

1. Open the Websites application in RevasOS;
2. In the Dasboard, locate the group of sites to which you want to add a version in another language;
3. Click on the Create Website button;
4. Enter the same domain as the website group to which you want to add a language and select the new language from the drop-down menu;

This creates a new empty website that has the same theme and branding as the website group, but which must be structured from scratch.

To do this, follow the steps in the guide on how to create a website.

Advantage

Thanks to RevasOS, the two versions of the website are like two autonomous and separate websites: this way it is possible to have different website structures and page contents depending on the language, to better adapt to the different cultures of the users.
