Tip: You can keep a language turned off until you have completed your translations so they are only shown to guests once you have finished a your translations.

What your guests will see:

When sharing with guests, the language displayed to them will be their web browser’s default language, if that is a language that you have created translations for and chosen to display. Otherwise the English version will be used as default.

Guests can edit the language they see by selecting the globe icon on the HOME tab when using your guidebook:

Note: Any Memo message templates will have the same tabs for language as any other text or content boxes. When creating invitations you can select the language of the guest and the message will be sent using your content in that language. 

If you would like a language that we don’t currently support then please send us a support message with your request.
