The video is a step‑by‑step tutorial that shows Wix users how to add and configure the Multilingual feature directly within the Wix editor. It begins by opening Settings → Multilingual, clicking Get Started, and selecting a main language and location. The user then adds a first additional language, chooses its flag, and can later add more languages. The language menu that appears on the site can be styled and positioned. In the editor, a language flag lets the user switch between languages to edit content. Text, buttons, and images can be translated by selecting the element and choosing Translate, with image translation allowing a new image to be set. Menus are localized via Menus and Pages → three‑dot menu → Rename. Any new content or design changes automatically propagate to all languages. The Preview mode lets the user switch languages to see the result, and the Manage Languages panel (accessed via the flag) lets users add or remove languages and control visibility. Finally, after the language is live, the site is published so visitors can view the multilingual version. The tutorial emphasizes that the process is repeatable and the video can be revisited for help.

In this video, you'll learn how to make your website multilingual so you can speak to your visitors in any language inside the editor. Go to Settings and select Multilingual. Click Get Started and choose your main language and location. Then select the language you want to add first and its flag. You can always add more languages later. Great. You've added Multilingual to your site. This is the language menu your visitors will see. You can customize the design and move it anywhere on your site. When visitors click on it, they can choose their language. Back in the editor, you'll see a flag in the top left corner. Here you can switch languages to edit the text and images. Now select the text and click Translate. It works the same for a button. Just click the button and select Translate. You can even localize images. Just click the image and select Translate. Then change Image. To translate your menu, select Menus and Pages. On the left hand side, click the three dots icon and click Rename. Then type in your new text. If you add something new or change your design, you'll see it in all languages. Click Preview and Switch Languages to see how it looks. When you switch back to English, you'll see the text and images have stayed the same. To manage your languages, go to the flag and click Manage Languages. Here you can easily add a language and show it on your website. Once your language is live, head back to the editor and publish your site so visitors can see it. And that's it. Now you can translate your website into any language with Multilingual. This video is always here, so come back and watch again for more help.
