What is "private mode"?
In this article, you will find out how to use private mode on your website - A feature allowing you to disable the translations display for your visitors when making revisions to your website.
1) When you set up Weglot, all languages you add are set to "public" by default. All your visitors can access the translated pages.
2) How to switch to private mode?
Go to your Weglot Dashboard > Projects > Select a project > Translations > Languages
Click on the "Options" button on your chosen language and switch off the "Make public" option:
That way, you can set private mode on a specific language(s) or on all of them.
3) Display the translations while in private mode
When you set a language pair to "private", you can still display the translation by adding the query ?weglot-private=1
at the end of the URL in your browser's address bar (then hit Enter to reload the page). Please don't use a space or any other character between your URL and the query, just add it directly after your URL. For example, it should look like this: yourwebsite.com?weglot-private=1
All the languages that you set to "private" will then be displayed. If you had set all your languages to "private", the language switcher will also be displayed.
