Translate content of static page

The content of most pages in ICA-AtoM is dynamically generated by context and depends on which record(s) the user has requested by which action (view, list, edit, search, etc). The application does ship, however, with two pages whose content is always the same (pages):

  • The home page displays a welcome message to users
  • The about page displays information about the application

Editors and administrators can edit these pages, which are just text with HTML tags stored as database content.

For more on customizing pages, see manage pages.

To translate a page:

  1. In the language menu, click the language into which you want to translate
  2. Navigate to the page you wish to translate
  3. Click "Edit this page" in the lower left corner of the page
  4. Enter or edit the translation in the box below the page text
  5. Always include the HTML coding in the translation
  6. Click the "Save" button to save the translation
