Getting Started

Get Started with Weglot library

Getting started

Let's include Weglot's client code into your site and get started with translations.

1. Go to your Weglot dashboard (https://dashboard.weglot.com/) , start a new project. Depending on the technology you chose, you will integrate Weglot using the Javascript library.

2. Edit your HTML file, and right before the</head>tag, append the code that is shown to you. It should look like:

<script type="text/javascript" src="https://cdn.weglot.com/weglot.min.js"></script>
<script>
    Weglot.initialize({
        api_key: 'YOUR_API_KEY'
    });
</script>

Make sure you replace YOUR_API_KEYwith the API key you got in the step one.

Your API key is then used to retrieve the settings of your project from your Weglot dashboard, like the original language, the languages you want to translated into, the things you don't want to translated etc...

• Add more settings in this object, see the options page.

• Interact with the Weglot instance, see available methods.

• Design your own switcher, move it in your page: go to the link hooks guide.

• You can also translate an iframe.
