Web Application .Net is supporting up to two languages. The language translation is done on the Web Application source code level (this page) and on the database level (see WA4.1 Language selection and translation tables). 

The Web Application language localisation is using the default ASP.Net Globalization and Culture configuration. The translation is based on resource files. The generic application is translated into English-language and French-language.

In order to facilitate the translation of the Web Application and to have a common repository for language packs for openIMIS, we have subscribed to lokalise.com. If you wish to add new languages to openIMIS Web Application, you can request the access by visiting the Web Application project on lokalise. For more information on the translation platform please check Translation Management platform page.
