Prior to installing Translations for Craft, it's strongly recommended that you backup your site.

Sites

Sites

Before creating translations, you'll want to make sure you have some sites setup. Sites can be added by going to Settings > Sites > New Site. For more information on Sites, view Craft's documentation here.

Sections

Sections Now that you have your sites setup, ensure that they are enabled for the Sections you want to target.

Note: You must have the "Propagate entries across all enabled sites" enabled in order for Entry drafts to be created in target sites

Fields

Translation Method Option

Finally, for each field that you want translated, make sure you have that fields Translation Method enabled.

For Matrix blocks, you'll generally want to enable Manage blocks on a per-site basis. Don't forget to enable the translation method for sub-fields!
