Translations for Confluence Data Center/Server

Overview

With Translations for Confluence, you can add and edit content in different languages on the same Confluence page.

• Choose any combination of over 40 language macros.

• The individual user sees content only in the language of their choice.
  If no macro exists for the user's preferred language, the app checks if there is a macro for Confluence's default language that can be displayed. → See Which language is displayed?

• Quickly switch between existing languages by using the language drop-down.

• If the title of a page is translated too, the translated titles will appear throughout Confluence.

• Enable or disable the Language Macros individually in the Administrator Interface.

• Compatible with Jira Service Management.

• Translated content can be searched in Confluence’s advanced search.
