Manage Languages
As a site administrator (Manager) you can define which languages the user interface will appear in, within your Plumi site. By default, Plumi offers both English and Indonesian languages (the interface is already translated into Indonesian), with more languages in the pipeline. Once you have made this language available, any Member can translate certain types of content into that language.
Note: content that has been contributed by members of your Plumi site will remain in the language it has been added, there is no machine translation in Plumi.
Currently full translations of the Plumi interface are only available for English and Indonesian. However, much of the interface is inherited from Plone, which has been translated into many different languages. If you choose to enable one of these other languages, only some of the interface will be translated.
If you wish to assist in translating the Plumi interface into another language, please consult this FAQ or contact the Plumi developers for more info.
If you wish to switch the language you are viewing the Plumi site in (from available languages) visit this chapter.
