Getting Started in 4 Steps
Step 1 — Activate languages
Tenant Admin → Settings → Languages
Enable 2 or more languages, for example English plus Arabic. The language must exist in the system list — if one is missing, contact your platform provider.
Step 2 — Activate the plugin
Tenant Admin → Plugins → Multi-Lingual → Activate
After activation, Multi-Lingual appears in your sidebar.
Step 3 — Configure the AI provider
Tenant Admin → Multi-Lingual → Settings
Enable translations, select your AI provider, enter your API key, and save. See AI Provider Settings.
Step 4 — Start translating
Open any product, category, brand, blog post, or page for editing. You will see language tabs above each translatable field. Click a non-default tab → Auto Translate → review → save. See Translating Content.
Troubleshooting
Language tabs not showing? Confirm the plugin toggle is ON in Multi-Lingual → Settings, at least 2 languages are active in Settings → Languages, and ask your provider to run php artisan view:clear if needed.
