The My Languages page is where you manage all languages available for your WalkMe content. From here, you can view your source language, add new languages, and track translation details across your account.

You can:

• Add a new language: Define the display name, short identifier, and visibility in the WalkMe Menu

How It Works

In the My Languages page you can manage existing languages and add new ones.

The language used to first build your content serves as the source language for all WalkMe items, the WalkMe Menu, and general settings.

• The source language appears on the first line of the My Languages page
• The status panel displays your total word counts, active languages, and number of items

On WalkMe products we now support and, provide localization for 38 languages:

• Each language shows an indicator of whether its supported for Action Bar and Menu localization
• Languages in the 38-language list display a verified badge
• Languages added outside this list are available for translation but do not receive WalkMe-provided default translations

Add New Language

1. Select +
2. In the Create new language select the Language (choose the language to add from the ISO standard list) and the Display Name (enter the name users see in the WalkMe Menu
3. Enter or select the Custom Identifier (short name) this is use in the  Auto-Toggle and Language Push (API) methods
   Note

   The short name must contain alphanumeric characters (for example, letters or numbers), hyphens and needs to be used with '-' and not '_' .

   

Language Settings

1. Check the Import translations from another language to copy  and imoprt  translations to the new language
2. To enable Visible to End Users turn on the toggle. When ON, the language appears in the language selector in both the Action Bar and the Menu for that system. When OFF, the language is available for content translation but not visible to end users.
3. Select Create Language

For the Global system, the + Create new language button is disabled.

The 38-language list is fixed and read-only at the global level.

• Builders can add / remove languages outside of the list of 38 languages at the Global level, but without localization support on WM side
• At a global level they builders can also add translations for the multi-location launchers they have created

When you serach for a language, fuzzy search makes an appropriate suggestion
