DRUPAL TRANSLATION MANAGEMENT: THE OLD WAY
IT WAS CUMBERSOME…
- Export manually content to be translated in a format
that translators can process
- Send the exported content to translators, via email
- Quality-check the translations when ready
- Copy-paste translations back into Drupal, language by
language
- Edit language pages to correct layout errors
- Publish translated pages

OUT OF THE BOX
- Light Drupal plugin to install (Beebox for Drupal)
- The Drupal-Beebox solution:
– Tracks content additions and updates, down to sentence level – Recycles existing translations – Sends selected content to Connexion or your translation provider – Pushes translated content back to Drupal, automatically or supervised – Offers possible integration of Machine Translation – Optimises translation time and cost
