Adding languages to your account
Before you can create multi-language stories in StoryChief, you'll need to first add languages to your account. To do this, follow the instructions below:
Step 1. In the right top corner, click on your user profile and select "Settings" in the dropdown menu.
Step 2. Select "Languages" under "Stories".
Step 3. Click on the "Add Language" button
Select a language from the predefined list.
🔔 Note: If you have an external website with multiple languages make sure to match the language codes. For instance, for a WordPress website with the language code nl-BE, you will need to fill in nl-BE in the code field.
Translating stories
Now that we have multiple languages we can translate our story.
In the Stories overview page, a new "Translate" option will be available. Click on it and choose the language you want to use.
Clicking on "Translate" will duplicate the chosen story, link it to the original version, and forward you to the editor where you can begin to translate it. You can change the set language of the story by going to the "Summary" tab.
