Introduction

Chime websites are currently only built in the English language. However, there are many tools that can be used to produce literal (not localized) translations of website content. One of those can be configured for your Chime-built website but it is a manual process.

The provider currently used on Chime websites for this purpose is https://gtranslate.io/

Adding a Translation Widget

If you would like to add a translation widget to your website, please send a request to our Support Team (support@chimeinc.com) and request that it be added to your website. There is currently no setting in the CMS that can be used to enable this on your end.

Customizing Languages

Currently, the only languages available with the translation widget are those listed below. If you request for the widget to be added to your website, all of the following will be enabled by default on a Chime-built website 

• English
• Chinese
• French
• Japanese
• Spanish

If you would like to choose only certain languages from the above list to be enabled on your Chime-built site, please provide that detail in your request submitted to the Chime Support Team (support@chimeinc.com).

If you need a language that is not currently supported, please submit the request to determine if implementation is possible.
