Overview

When creating onboarding content for teams across different countries or locations, it is important that your content is available in multiple languages. Appical allows you to translate page content quickly using the translation settings in the course editor.

With the translation feature, you can automatically translate the content of a page into one or multiple languages with just a few clicks. This helps you maintain consistent content while making it accessible for new hires who prefer to read information in their own language.

Example
For example, if your organization has employees in Spain, Germany, and the Netherlands, you can create onboarding content once and translate the page into Spanish, German, and Dutch so new hires can follow the course in their preferred language.

📌 Important:

  • Before translating your page content, make sure the languages are added in the course settings.

  • Only languages that are enabled in the course settings will be available for translation.
