How to Duplicate a Pro Site for Translation
SimDif allows you to create copies of your Pro site for translation into different languages. Duplicate sites allow you to customize content, design, and domain names for different countries.
SimDif's Duplicated Pro Sites Offer:
• If you duplicate a site for translation we will give you the first 2 months of the new Pro Site for free.
Follow these Steps to Duplicate Your Site:
• Go to "Site Settings" > "Languages" > "Manage Translation"
• Choose "Duplicate Sites"
• Enter the name of the new site – You can change this to a custom domain name from YorName in settings later if you wish
• Choose a language
• Choose either manual or automatic translation*
• Click "Apply"
*Duplicate Sites allow one-time automatic translation.
Managing Duplicated Sites
Duplicated sites can have different photos, headers, logos, themes and so on, from your original site. Updates to the original site will not be applied to the duplicated sites, and vice versa.
Each Duplicated Site:
• Is connected to your main site by a language menu in the header
• Can have its own domain name. For example: mywebsite.fr, mywebsite.es
How to ensure high quality translation
It's important to start with a well written main language site. Following this, if you are not fluent in both languages yourself, working with a professional translator is the only way to guarantee good translation.
