Room Language Setting

Written by Joice

Overview
Aligned doesn't currently have a built-in language setting for Rooms. Content will need to be entered manually in your preferred language, or you can use a translation tool as a temporary solution.

Prerequisites & Requirements

  • Permissions: Room owners and internal room collaborators can add and edit content in a Room.

  • Aligned does not currently support automatic translation or a built-in language toggle.

How to Add Content in a Different Language

  1. Open the Room.

  2. Add or edit the section where you'd like non-English content to appear.

  3. Manually enter the text in your preferred language.

Temporary Workaround: Using a Translation Tool

  1. Draft your content in a translation tool of your choice (e.g. Google Translate, DeepL).

  2. Copy the translated text.

  3. Paste it into the relevant section or tab in your Room.

Note: Since there is no built-in language setting, translated content will need to be manually updated any time the source content changes.

Best Practices

  • Keep a source document of your original content so it's easy to re-translate if updates are made.

  • Double-check translations for tone and accuracy before sharing with buyers, as automated tools may not capture nuance.

  • If you work with buyers in multiple languages, consider creating separate templates per language.


Troubleshooting & Common Questions

Is there a way to set a default language for my Room?

Not at this time. This has been raised as a recommendation to our R&D team for future consideration.

Will translated content update automatically if I change the original?

No. Since translation is done manually, any updates to the source content will need to be re-translated and re-entered.
