How to manage automatic translations
In this article, you will learn more about automatic content translations and how to manage them.
When you deactivate the automatic content translation feature, you will then have to approve all new content manually before Weglot generates the translation. This prevents your word count from increasing and reduces unwanted translations on your site.
1. Why consider turning off automatic translations?
- Disabling automatic translations can have several purposes:
- It helps you control the word count
- It helps you control the quality of translations. Here, you can see the original content that needs to be translated, which can help you decide if it needs to be translated.
2. Deactivate automatic translations
- Automatic translations can be deactivated in the Dashboard > Settings
You can find the automatic content detected:
- In the list of languages
- Via the action button > View detected content
3. Approve/reject translations
