The ProcessMaker Platform user interface by default is in English. However, ProcessMaker Platform provides the following translations of the user interface:
German
Spanish
French
The Translations displays each label and message in the ProcessMaker Platform user interface in these four languages. For each label or message, the Translations displays the default English language as well as each non-English language. When the Language setting is changed in a user profile or user account, ProcessMaker Platform displays the appropriate labels and messages for that selected language. Changing the Language setting only affects that selected user account.
Optionally, use the Translations to edit the labels and messages that display in your ProcessMaker Platform instance. This may be useful for the following reasons:
Replace ProcessMaker Platform branding with our own: Your organization uses specific branding and/or terminology that you want displayed throughout your ProcessMaker Platform instance. In this regard, you are replacing ProcessMaker Platform's branding with your own.
ProcessMaker Platform is white-labeled: As a partner using ProcessMaker Platform for your client, your client may want you to white-label ProcessMaker Platform: hide all ProcessMaker Platform branding and terminology and replace it with theirs.
When replacing branding and/or white-labeling ProcessMaker Platform, customize the colors in the ProcessMaker Platform user interface to show your organization's or client's color palette.
