How to create labels for your translations?

In this article, you'll learn how to create labels for your translations to improve the translation management of your project(s).




1. What is a label?

You can create labels for your translations. This is useful as it allows you to group your translations into several categories or to find them in your Translation List easily.


To access the feature, go to your Weglot Dashboard > Translations and click on the language pair you want to edit.

Next to each translation, you will see a three-line button when you hover over the translation ("See details" button). 

Click on it to access the panel. 

You will have access to different tabs. You can click on the "Information" tab to find the "Labels" feature.

When you select a language pair and reach your Translation List, you can see the filter button on the right side (Search Filters - How to easily find a translation?).

Using it, you can see the "Label" filter and select one or several labels to find and display the associated translations to edit them. 

You can also use the "Quality" filter or any other filter we propose to target your translations better.


2. How to modify labels?

When you access the "Labels" feature on a translation, you can enter the label you want by typing its name and hitting a comma or pressing Enter.

By clicking in the "Labels" field, you will access the "Edit labels" window to edit or remove your labels easily.

Click on "Edit labels".

To edit a label, click on it and enter a new name, then press Enter or click the blue button.

You can also delete a label by clicking on the bin icon on the right of a label.

3. What are automatic labels?

Here is a list of some "automatic" labels that can be added by Weglot to your translations:

  • SVG: for translations coming from SVG files
  • Bubble: for translations coming from automatic custom codes* when using Bubble
  • Wix: for translations coming from automatic custom codes* when using Wix
  • Shopify: for translations coming from automatic custom codes* when using Shopify
  • Squarespace: for translations coming from automatic custom codes* when using Squarespace
  • LD+JSON: for translations coming from custom codes* applying to <script> tags with the attribute type="ld+json"

  • Sitemap: for translations coming from your sitemap
  • RSS

  • Custom definition: for translations coming from custom codes*

*Custom codes are codes added in the back office by the Weglot team to ensure the full translation of your website. Automatic custom codes are codes that are not added by Weglot Support members after a user's request, but by Weglot by default, to have a website properly translated.
