Projects can be created to manage translations, track progress, and make estimates for groups of related documents. Typically, a project consists of group documents with similar deadlines, content, and translation settings; however, a project can be used in any manner that makes sense to your organization.

To create a project,

After creating the project, you will be able to assign desired personnel.

Once a project is created, a workflow can be assigned. The workflow automatically controls many default settings (such as default source/target language settings, assigned translators, etc.). 

Choose Resources

Next, designate which resources should be available to each linguist and optionally set a due date. 

Upload Documents

 After selecting the desired resources, you will be ready to upload documents to the project.

Override the Workflow

In some situations, you may need to override the project’s workflow. If you need to override the workflow, you can do it in several ways.

Document Actions can override almost every aspect of the workflow. Use document actions to add a target language, skip a workflow phase, and more. Click here for an overview of each available document action.

Edit Project Details

Once a project is created, you can rename it or share it with other project managers. 
Additional project features allow you to change project information, delete an entire project, move documents to another project, or allow translators to download documents within a project.
 

Translate Web Content

Translate Websites

If you need to translate an entire website, many automated options are available. Integrations are available for major Content Management Systems - such as Drupal, Adobe Experience Manager, and Oracle Web Center. Please contact support@lingotek.com for more information.

If you often need to translate news or blogs published via an RSS feed, you can automate the process.
Go to the project and enter the RSS feed URL. Then, Lingotek will pull articles from the RSS feed into the translation management system as individual documents. These documents can then be translated or deleted as needed.
