Wix Multilingual: Translating Your Site
4 min read
Important:
This article applies to sites built in the Wix Editor and Editor X. Sites built with Wix ADI are currently not integrated with Wix Multilingual.
Create a tailored, personalized website experience for visitors around the world using Wix Multilingual. In this article, you'll find a step-by-step guide, from adding Wix Multilingual to translating your content.

Step 1 | Add Wix Multilingual
First, you need to add Wix Multilingual to your site and choose your main and secondary languages. When selecting your main site language, keep in mind that this is the default language your site visitors will first encounter.
There are a variety of ways to add the app to your site. Learn how to add Wix Multilingual
Important:
- Once you've selected your site's main language, you cannot change it to a different language. If this is something you'd like to see in the future, you can vote for that feature.
- We recommend reviewing our list of translatable content before translating your site. Learn more about what apps can and can't be translated with Wix Multilingual

Step 2 | Switch to a secondary language
After adding Wix Multilingual to your site, switch to your secondary language to start working on the translation. The Switch Languages panel at the top left of your Editor allows you to navigate between languages with just one click.

Editor X
Step 3 | Translate your Editor content
After switching to your secondary language, translate each part of your content in your Editor. With Wix Multilingual you can translate your site's content (e.g., text, images, links, etc.) in two ways:
- Automatically: Use Auto-translate to translate your site in one click.
- Manually: Translate your site's content manually by entering your own translations.

Step 4 | Translate your apps
After translating elements in your Editor, head over to the Multilingual dashboard to translate your app content. You can translate various Wix apps like Wix Stores, Wix Events and Wix Chat. We are working on making all Wix apps and third-party apps translatable.

Step 5 | Make the translation visible
Now you're ready to go live. Go to Site Languages in the Multilingual dashboard to make the language visible. Then head over to your Editor to publish and make the changes live.
To publish your translations:
- Go to Site Languages in the Multilingual dashboard.
- Click the Status drop-down next to your language and select Visible.
- (In the Editor) Click Publish at the top right to publish your site.
