Correct a translation by hand

Edit any translated string, and keep your wording through every later re-translation.

Machine translation is right most of the time. For the headline, tagline or product name where it matters, you can write the translation yourself.

The plugin's Manual overrides screen, listing translated strings with their language and whether each is up to date or edited by hand.
  1. Open Manual overrides

    In Zinn Digital® → Translate, open the Manual overrides tab.

  2. Find the string

    Use Search translations to find the text you want to change.

  3. Write your version and save

    Edit the translation and save. The status changes to Edited by you — kept.

  4. Your wording survives

    A string you edited is never overwritten, even when the page is re-translated. Other strings show Up to date, or Source changed — will be redone when the original text has changed.
