Hi Ramin. Thanks for bringing this to our attention. Currently, a few of our clients are helping us as volunteers with maintaining our translation files. If you are interested to help us with maintaining the Persian translation, please contact our support team by logging into your community with your admin account, and click on the "chat with us" button. 

Below is an example code that adds two languages to the top navbar (English and French):

<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>

You can modify the code to add more language to the drop-down. 

Hi @Mike van der Valk26. 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: 

Now, based on the preferred language that this user has picked (e.g. Dutch Language), if the Translation App30 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.
