In this article, learn more about:
Adding a language to your site
With Wix Multilingual, you can add multiple languages to your site, and manage them from your dashboard.
When adding a language to your site, you can choose to translate your content automatically or manually, and ensure that visitors can enjoy your site, no matter the language they speak.
To add a language to your site:
- Go to Multilingual in your site's dashboard.
- Click + Add Language.
- Select the language you want from the Language drop-down.
- Select a flag to represent the language from the Flag drop-down.
- Click Add Language.
Showing or hiding a language on your site
Any time you add a secondary language, it is hidden by default. When you finish translating that language and are happy with how it looks, unhide it to show it to the world.
To show or hide a language:
- Go to Multilingual in your site's dashboard.
- Click the Status drop-down next to your language and select an option:
- Visible: The language is accessible to site visitors and appears in the language menu.
- Hidden: The language is not accessible to site visitors (even with a direct link) and does not appear in the language menu.
Tip:
You can change the status from the Translation Manager too.
Deleting a language from your site
When you delete a language, its translations and any changes you made to that language are permanently deleted.
To delete a language:
- Go to Multilingual in your site's dashboard.
- Click the More Actions icon next to the language you want to delete.
- Select Delete Language.
- Click Delete to confirm.
