Set up translations

Multiple languages are supported in Maxxton to present your content effectively. These languages can be utilised for translations, which enables you to display descriptions on your website in a unified language. This improves the booking experience for your customers and ensures that accurate information is conveyed regarding the accommodations, add-ons, and amenities. Additionally, translations can be used to display content for users based on the language they have selected in their profile.

Enable internationalisation

1. Navigate to Content Manager and expand the Configuration menu item, and select Internationalisation.
2. The Languages card appears, showing the languages set up for translations.
3. Click the Link language in the bottom-right corner of the panel to add more languages.
4. From the dropdown menu in the Link languages pop-up, select the language you would like to set up. Specify whether this is the default language.
5. Click the Link language. The selected language is added to the overview panel. The default language will be used whenever no input is provided for other configured languages. If you want to change the default language after configuration, contact Maxxton.
