The entity reference will be referencing a unique set of paragraph entities. When using Lingotek for translating that entity with those paragraphs, the translation download will be translating those paragraphs. But as the reference set is the same, if you edit the source paragraph references, the target references will be updated too. So, translation is fully supported, but localization is not. You cannot adjust the references for the source and target paragraphs to better suit your target audience. If you require localization, you should install the paragraphs asymmetric translation widget and use scenario three.

Although we technically support this method, it is not recommended for anyone using the versions past 8.x-2.22 / 3.1.x. We also highly recommend you update to the latest version of the Lingotek module if you want to translate paragraphs. |
When translating an entity with paragraphs marked as translatable, the download will create the translated paragraph and update the references in the translation. Since the reference set is different for the source and target paragraphs, editing the source paragraph references will not update the target references. This allows you to localize your content by treating your source and target paragraphs differently. You will need to re-upload the source content and re-download the translated content to make the target content match the source. Although this technically supports localization, it is not ideal since it requires a new round-trip any time you want to update the target paragraph.
