Translate Centrestack to another language

CentreStack allows administrators to customize language localization for the web portal and desktop clients.

It supports several default languages, while others can be manually translated within the platform for a tailored user experience.

1. Login web portal as cluster admin. Go to 'Cluster Dashboard' at the top right, and then 'Languages'

2. From the languages list, select the language you want to translate, click 'SET LANGUAGE'

3. After selecting a language, the web portal displays a list of resource files that need translation. Translate all necessary strings and save the changes to apply the localization.

Key resource files include:

/portal/strings_mac.aspx – strings for the Mac client

/portal/strings_win.aspx– strings for the Windows client

/portal/webui_strings.aspx – strings for the Web File Browser

4. When a resource file is selected, File Path shows where the file will be stored on the CentreStack server. click 'VIEW/EDIT RESOURCE STRING'

5. The resource file displays all available text strings, with English as the default language. To localize the interface, translate each string accordingly. Once the translation is complete, click SAVE to apply the changes

6. After all resource files are translated, click PUBLISH LANGUAGE

7. Once the translation is saved, the new language will appear as an option in the web portal's language and in the Windows/Mac client branding

8. The translated resource files are stored both in the database and on the CentreStack server. If you have multiple worker nodes, perform the translation on one node. Once completed, go to Server Farm > Worker Nodes and click 'Apply Localization Change' on all other nodes. This will retrieve the translations from the database and generate local resource files on each node.

After upgrading CentreStack, you must also click 'Apply Localization Change' to reload translations from the database and update the local resource files
