Introduction
The functionality can be found in Administration -> System Configuration -> Translations tab and allows to manage three types of translations:
- System translations - translations of user interface elements, e.g. names of buttons, tabs, messages, etc.
- Config translations - translations of elements defined in the system, e.g. names and descriptions of document classes, indexes, organizational units, views, etc.
- Custom translations - other translations that are not included in system translations, config translations and xpdl translations.
After selecting the translation type, you can select the language. Default and custom translations for selected language will appear. Available languages are defined in the SupportedLanguages system parameter.
Searching for translations
System translations
Translations view is divided into two sections: Default translations and Custom translations. In order to find the translation to overwrite, you can use one of auxiliary filters that narrow down translation list:
- Select sources - multi-select combobox containing sources of translations, i.e. name of the plugin or system (plusworkflow).
- Filter keys - dynamic search bar allowing to search by keys of default and custom translations.
- Filter default/custom translations - dynamic search bar allowing to search by values of default and custom translations.
Config elements
Translations view is divided into two sections: Default translations and Custom translations. In order to find the translation to overwrite, you can use one of auxiliary filters that narrow down translation list:

Custom translations
Translations view is divided into two sections: New translation and Custom translations. In order to find existing custom translation, you can use one of auxiliary filters that narrow down translation list:
