The Translation Dashboard shows you the status of the site you are translating, and allows you to launch the contextual Translation Interface. It helps you find content available for translation, especially on pages that aren’t visited often, so that you can help ensure a site is 100 per cent translated.

The Translation Dashboard provides the following information for each language:

  • Completed translations
  • Strings available for translation
  • Percentage complete
  • Your recent activity
  • URLs available for translation
  • Most active volunteer translators  
  • Comparison of the language completeness vs other languages

To login to the Translation Dashboard:

 

To select a language:

  •  On the Translation Dashboard, from the language drop-down menu, select a language.

To launch a site for translation:

  • On the Translation Dashboard, under Available for Translation, click the URL you want to translate.
    A new window opens and the site is ready for translation in the Translation Interface.

When I click on an available for translation URL, a server ask me to input a username and a password! I tried with my registration information, but the server didn't give me any access. How I have to do?

There is a hard-coded password on the page itself, above the counters

You say "Click your organization's translation URL". Where is that list available? I don't see it.
