Create an account to set up your multilingual website, manage your translations, and customize your settings depending on your needs.

Once you’ve signed up, you’ll receive a validation email that takes you to the Weglot Dashboard and the setup page.

Add a project name (e.g. your website name) and select your ‘Website technology’ > ‘Other’.

Now indicate the original language of your website and the languages you want to translate it into.

After clicking on "Next", you can add the URL of your website.

Here, you’ll create your new language subdomains, e.g. https://en.mywebsite/ (for the English version of a website). This involves connecting your DNS records, so you’ll need access to your domain name provider account. If you don't manage your own domain name, please click on "connect Weglot to your website without it." and ignore step 3 of this guide.

Note: this example is using Gandi. Check out other subdomain/ DNS setups here or contact us if you need further help: [email protected].

In your Weglot account setup process, you will find your DNS entries, like the screenshot below. (This example shows an English entry).

Go to your domain name provider account and locate the ‘DNS’ tab. Here, you’ll need to create new entries in the section that should be called something like ‘custom resource records’.

Select CNAME as the ‘type’, enter your 2-letter language code in the ‘name’ section, and the record itself in the ‘data’ section. For instance, 'xxx.translate-cf.weglot.io'.

Click 'Save all changes' and then go back to your Weglot Dashboard. Click on the green ‘Check DNS’ button. This can sometimes take up to 10 minutes, so don’t be alarmed if the green tick doesn’t appear immediately next to your DNS records.

The last step is to copy and paste a piece of code given to you in your Weglot account setup into your The Church Co dashboard.

Open a new browser tab and login to The Church Co if you have not done so already. In your Church Co account, navigate to Settings > Integrations > Weglot.

Copy your Weglot API key. The API key is the text that starts with wg_. Copy the text within the quotation marks like the image below:

Paste the API key into the Weglot API key input field, then change "Enabled". Make sure to save your changes.

It’s done! Your Church Co website is now multilingual. You can now see a language switcher on the bottom of your website and switch between your original and destination language.

Note that if you want to edit your translation you can follow the instructions here. Don’t hesitate to reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions.
