If you would like to build a website in a language that is not English, the Site Language feature allows you to translate certain elements into your preferred language. Simply select your preferred language and the built-in text on several widgets will be translated into your target language automatically. The widget text has been pre-translated and cannot be customized.
This feature should not be mistaken for the Multi-Language Feature which translates all text on the site using Google Translate. When Multi-Language is enabled, the default site language is set automatically, the Site Language tab will be inactive, and changes to the default language must be set via the Multi-Language feature.
To configure your site language, follow these simple steps:
- Click on Settings from the left-hand menu within your Website Editor
- Select Site Language
- Select a language. The languages offered include:
- Arabic
- Dutch
- English
- English (UK)
- Finnish
- French
- German
- Italian
- Latvian
- Lithuanian
- Portuguese
- Polish
- Spanish (Spain)
- Spanish (LATAM)
- Turkish

Notes: This feature only translates the texts listed above and these texts cannot be edited.
Some widgets allow you to select a widget language in the Content Editor (for example, Business Hours, Cookie Notifications). If you selected a language for the widgets, they will remain in the selected language until you change the Site Language.
