Multi-language

exported by ox-hugo on Org_Mode & Emacs Hextra supports creating site with multiple languages using Hugo’s multilingual mode.

Enable Multi-language

To make our site multi-language, we need to tell Hugo the supported languages. We need to add to the site configuration file:

hugo.yaml
defaultContentLanguage: en
languages:
  en:
    languageName: English
    weight: 1
  fr:
    languageName: Français
    weight: 2
  ja:
    languageName: 日本語
    weight: 3

Manage Translations by Filename

Hugo supports managing translations by filename. For example, if we have a file content/docs/_index.md in English, we can create a file content/docs/_index.fr.md for French translation.

      • _index.md
      • _index.fr.md
      • _index.ja.md
  • Note: Hugo also supports Translation by content directory.

    Translate Menu Items

    To translate menu items in the navigation bar, we need to set the identifier field:

    hugo.yaml
    menu:
      main:
        - identifier: documentation
          name: Documentation
          pageRef: /docs
          weight: 1
        - identifier: blog
          name: Blog
          pageRef: /blog
          weight: 2

    and translate them in the corresponding i18n file:

    i18n/fr.yaml
    documentation: Documentation
    blog: Blog

    Translate Strings

    To translate strings on the other places, we need to add the translation to the corresponding i18n file:

    i18n/fr.yaml

    A list of strings used in the theme can be found in the i18n/en.yaml file.
