Before You Begin
Make sure you have:
Added the languages you want to translate to your site
Access to accurate translations (manual translation recommended over machine translation for legal accuracy)
Time required: About 15-30 minutes per language

Translation Best Practices
Use professional translation: Legal consent text requires accuracy—avoid relying solely on machine translation
Maintain tone consistency: Match the formality level of your default language
Keep button text concise: Shorter translations work better for button labels
Review on mobile: Test how translations display on smaller screens
Cultural adaptation: Adjust phrasing to be culturally appropriate, not just literally translated
What's Next
After translating your banner content, you should:
Test the banner in the translated language on your website
Repeat the translation process for additional languages if needed
Troubleshooting
Changes aren't appearing on my website
Why this happens: Language detection relies on the lang attribute in your website's HTML.
Solution:
Verify your website's
<html>tag includes the correct language code (e.g.,<html lang="fr">for French)If the
langattribute is missing or incorrect; update it in your website's templateClear your browser cache and refresh the page
Some fields show placeholder text instead of my translations
Solution: Return to the language editor and verify you've filled in all required fields. Empty fields will display default language content as a fallback.
Rich text formatting disappeared after translation
Solution: Use the formatting toolbar (B, I, U, lists, links) in the editor to reapply formatting to your translated text. Formatting doesn't automatically carry over from the default language.
