Adobe Experience Manager - Integration / Setup

Translate your Adobe Experience Manager website

Translate all your content and make your Adobe Experience Manager website multilingual within minutes.

1) Create a Weglot account

This is where you’ll manage your website translations, manage your translation settings, and other customizations depending on your needs. Create account.

You’ll then receive a validation email that will take you to the Weglot Dashboard.

Add a project name (e.g. your website name) and select your ‘Website technology’ – in your case, it’s ‘Other’.

2) Add your new languages and select your URL structure

The next step is to add the URL of your website, the original language of your website, the languages you’d like to translate it into and your URL structure.

You can choose the type or URL you wish to use for the integration. Both options are good for your SEO. The only differences are the URL structure. For example, for the French version of your website, the URLs would look like:

Subdomains: fr.yourwebsite.com
Subdirectories (beta): yourwebsite.com/fr

If you don't have a domain name yet, click the "Use Javascript integration" link instead. You'll only have to provide the original and desired languages to translate your website into. Proceed to step 4 of this guide.

3) Create your subdomains (important for multilingual SEO)

In this step, you’ll create your SEO-friendly subdomains, for example, fr.mywebsite.com (if you want to translate your website into French).

You will need access to your domain name provider account. The following video demonstrates the process with Google Domains – check our videos for other domain name providers or contact us at support@weglot.com if you need any help.

In the section where you add your CNAME entries, ‘name’ will be the language code given to you in the Weglot setup process and the ‘data’ section will be the value given by Weglot.

Here, the name is fr, and the value is 47cbfc60.translate-sp.weglot.io.

⚠️ The value is an example and will be different in your case.

After you’ve saved this entry in your domain name provider, go back to your Weglot account and click on the ‘Check DNS’ button. This should turn green but may take up to 10 minutes to do so.

4) Add your language switcher

Here you’ll need to copy and paste a piece of code from your Weglot account setup into Adobe Experience Manager.

In Adobe Experience Manager, open up your ‘Template HTML page’ and paste the code inside the ‘Head’ section.
