How to do it…
Proceed with the following steps to translate the JIRA UI elements:
1. Select the
Switch off Translation
option from the user profile menu.
2. Hover your mouse over the UI element that you want to translate and click on the
Translate this
button. Note that not all elements can be translated. If you do not
see a
Translate this
button, it means the text cannot be translated.
3. Enter the translation in the
Translated message
text area.
4. Click on
Save
to create the translation. The following screenshot shows a transla-
tion add-on page:
You can also search for text strings directly from the translation panel and translate the text.
Not all text can be translated in JIRA; if you hover your mouse pointer over an item that
does not turn green, it means it cannot be translated. Generally, most of the UI elements are
translatable.
