Best Practice: Language Translation

Property Meld does not currently support localization or translation within the application.  With Property Meld being a web-based application, there are options available for configuring a browser to support the translation of the text on the webpage.  The following provides an approach for each of the popular browsers.  Google ChromeTM has the most straight-forward and best available mechanism.

Google Chrome™

Step 1:

Click Optionsicon, click Settings

Firefox

Firefox will need an extension to be able to translate languages.  The best option available is Google Translate.

Microsoft Edge™ or Internet Explorer

Any Microsoft browser requires the use of Microsoft Translator, but that will require copy and paste.

Alternatively, use Microsoft Translator for Edge to translate websites; however, this only works for Microsoft Edge and not any version of Internet Explorer.

Safari

Safari users (specifically on mobile devices) must also download Microsoft Translate to effectively translate pages from English to other languages.
