Making a page group available in another language

When a page group is created, it is available in a single default language (specified at creation time). You can subsequently create translations of the page group to make it available in other languages. Creating a translation means content contributors can seamlessly add content to a page group in a particular language, and if users choose to view the portal in that language, they will see the appropriate content. Creating a translation does not translate the content of the page group.

To create a translation for a page group, you must have at least one of the following privileges:

Before you can make a page group available in a particular language, the application messages for that language must have been installed. For information about this, see the Oracle9iAS Portal Configuration Guide.

To create a translation:

  1. In the Navigator, click Properties next to the page group with which you want to work.

  2. Click the Translations tab.

  3. In the Language list, choose the language in which you want to make the page group available.

    Note: This list displays only those languages for which the application messages have been installed and made available for user data translation, and for which a translation does not already exist.

  4. Click Create.

    The translation is created and displayed in the Edit Translation section where you can change its status, if required.

  5. Click OK.
