Below is an example code that adds two languages to the top navbar on the home page (English and French). You can replace the languages in the code to show any other language that you want.
The codes should be inserted to Admin Panel> Theme> Advanced Settings> <body> tag

<div class="ui compact menu"> 
	<div class="ui simple dropdown item"> 
	Language Picker 
		<i class="dropdown icon"></i> 
		<div class="menu">
			<a class="item" href="?locale=en">English</a>
			<a class="item" href="?locale=fr">French</a>
		</div> 
	</div> 
</div>

However, the code above does not "save" the language for the user's account. If you want it to be saved for the user account, you need to use this code:

<div class="ui compact menu">
<div class="ui simple dropdown item">
Language Picker
 <i class="dropdown icon"></i>
 <div class="menu">
  <a class="item" href="?setLocale=en">English</a>
  <a class="item" href="?setLocale=fr">French</a>
 </div>
</div>
</div>

Translation AppLanguage Updates

Answered 7 months ago

Hi @Mike van der Valk39. Recently we added Multilingual App for our Enterprise and Premium clients that allows their members to change the interface language for their own view. Each user can change the language from here:

Account Settings> Account> Display Language> Update

Now, based on the preferred language that this user has picked (e.g. Dutch Language), if the Translation App68 is enabled on your community, all the posts in a language different than Dutch, can be translated to the Dutch language. Therefore, the translation app converts all the post to the language defined as a preferred language for this user.

Now, if you are using SSO and you already have information about what the preferred language for your user is on your main website, you can use Tribe Webhooks to automatically change the interface language for that user inside the community accordingly. You can add a webhook for user.signup and then use our user update API (PUT /api/v1/users/{userId}) and set locale in the data.
