Renaming Custom Text & Translations

Renaming Custom Text & Translations

About

You can rename any piece of end-user visible text across the entire ScaleGrowth platform – and add other language translations for it! This guide shows you how.

Renaming Custom Text on ScaleGrowth is very easy.

In most cases, you can use our contextual Settings menu to do this.

For example, let's say you are looking at a Space and want to rename the "Name" label for the Add/Edit view.

  • Enter Admin if you aren't already
  • navigate to the Space you want to modify
  • click Settings in the top right
  • scroll down to find the Text & Languages section
  • this menu will show you all the relevant pieces of Text you can Customize for this Space
  • look for the text you want to replace

Hint: you can use your browser's "Find on page" functionality to look for the current version of the text – it should show up as the default placeholder text in here.


But what about text that's not part of a Space – such as the global "Log Out" menu name for example?

These live in a central place:

  • Enter Admin if you aren't already
  • navigate to Settings > Text & Languages
  • look for the text you want to change there


Finally, what about translations to other languages? You can add support for your favorite languages in the same place:

  • Enter Admin if you aren't already
  • navigate to Settings > Text & Languages
  • look for Number of Languages in there
  • you will note it says 1 by default – that's English
  • change the number to enable additional language support

Once you do, all the Custom Text menus above will also allow you to add translated versions for your extra languages!
