Edit any text on your site
Find any interface phrase — a button, a menu link, an error message — and rewrite it in each language your site uses.
Use this when a label doesn’t match how your organisation talks: “Events” should read “Fixtures”, “Shop” should be “Pro Shop”, or an error message sounds too blunt. Every interface phrase is editable, with no developer and no release. You need access to Settings.
How phrases are organised
Each phrase has a key — a fixed name the platform uses to find it — a group for the area it belongs to, and one column for each language switched on for your platform. You change the words; the key never changes.
Edit a phrase
- 1Open Translations
Go to Studio → System → Settings → Locale → Translations.
- 2Find the phrase
Type the words you can see on your site into Search by key or text. Narrow long results with the group menu, which starts on All groups.
- 3Edit the row
Click the edit button on the row. A field opens for each language your site uses.
- 1Save
Change the wording and click the save icon at the end of the row. The new text is live straight away.
- 2Check it in place
Open your public site and find the phrase where visitors see it. Menu links and buttons have limited room, especially on a phone.
Common changes
| You want to | Search for | Keep in mind |
|---|---|---|
| Rename a menu link | The link text, such as Shows | Change the page headings that use the same word, so the menu and the page agree. |
| Soften an error message | A few words of the message | Keep the meaning — viewers act on what it tells them. |
| Reword a plan or checkout button | The button text | Check it on a phone, where buttons are narrowest. |
| Prepare a new language | Any phrase in its group | Switch the language on first so its column appears, then complete the wording before you make it the site language. |
Your own content — event titles, article bodies, product names — isn’t on this screen. Edit those on the item itself.
