Hi everyone 👋 

Weglot 4.69 is now available! This release contains a new feature that allows you to create variables containing multiple words.

Improvement Variable with multiple words 

If you have very similar but not identical content, you may have multiple translations that would increase your total word count. 

For example, if you want to welcome your customer you may have several translations such as “Hello Marie Josephine Scott”, “Hello Michael Lindsey”, “Hello Ava Silva”… 

The variable feature will allow you to combine all those translations into a single one with a variable, and therefore reduce your word count.

To set them up, go to the "See details" panel then to the "Variable" tab, and click on "define variables”. From there, highlight the word (or words) you want to transform into a variable.

When creating your variable, you can now choose if it contains only one or multiple words. If you highlighted multiple words you won’t be able to change it but if you highlighted only one word you can activate the switcher, then Weglot will find all matching translations with one or multiple words.

The preview shows you the matches found, these matched translations will be deleted when you click on "Save" and replaced with a unique translation that contains a variable.

Hi everyone 👋 

This week’s release is a mix of improvements including a rework of the import/export, as well a newly added feature about the tone of traduction. 

new Choose your machine translation tone

This feature is available for all users with an advanced plan or above. 

For certain language pairs, you are now able to set the tone you want your website to be translated into, whether that be formal or informal.

You can access this functionality directly when adding a language and change it anytime through your Languages tab by clicking on options.

Note: This feature is not available for all language pairs, if you have an advanced plan or above and the option is not available it's because the language pair doesn't support this option.

Improvement Import/Export

We've added another verification layer when importing a file to your project. This avoids any import that could damage your translation project. 

We've also improved how we communicate the progress of your import. This is thanks to a redesign of the import preview as well as the file received by email so you can better understand if there is a problem.

If you have a custom language you are now able to import translations (not glossary rules or slugs) using the custom code you defined and not the default one Weglot uses. When exporting your translations, this same language code will be displayed.
