Overview
Taxonomies are controlled vocabularies that generate drop-down value lists in ICA-AtoM to restrict data entry in certain fields to certain values. ICA-AtoM stores these values as term records in the database, associating each term with a particular taxonomy.
Translating a taxonomy involves two steps: (i) translate the name of the taxonomy; and (ii) translate the terms that comprise its values.
For more on taxonomies, see in this manual:
Translate taxonomy name
st is therefore really just translating a series of database records from the Term table and follows the same logic as described above (Translating records).
1. Log in.
2. In the Language menu click the language into which you want to translate.
