Multilingual Pages

Resources that cover migrating multilingual Confluence pages to SharePoint.

Multilingual pages are pages, whose content has been translated to more than one language.

How does the translation work in Confluence?

There are third-party apps that enable users to translate whole pages in Confluence. WikiTraccs currently supports Scroll Translations.

How does the translation work in SharePoint?

SharePoint has a history of more or less usable approaches to multilingual user interfaces and content.

WikiTraccs supports different ways of migrating page translations from Confluence to SharePoint:

Some options will be supported in a future version of WikiTraccs and are not yet available.

migrating only one language, the translation with most content in Confluence (not recommended)
migrating only one language, as chosen via configuration (not yet documented)
migrating all translations to a single SharePoint page (default mode, supported as of WikiTraccs 1.4.2, recommended)
migrating each translation to a separate page in SharePoint
