Sitecore offers possibilities including a CMS-only option, an ecommerce solution and a fully-fledged digital experience management and delivery system.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.translationplugin.com\/index.php\/sitecore-translation\/\">GPI&#8217;s Translation Services Connector for Sitecore<\/a> enables users of Sitecore-based websites to translate content with just a few clicks and gain access to an array of reports to track and manage global translation projects through GPI&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.translationportal.com\/\">Translation Portal<\/a>. In the following sections, we&#8217;ll cover the main features of the GPI connector.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Exporting Sitecore Content for Translation<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>GPI&#8217;s Translation Services Connector for Sitecore offers two ways of sending content for translation. The first one is called the <strong>Bulk Export Method<\/strong>, which is used to select multiple items from Sitecore&#8217;s content tree and send them for translation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/gpi20sitecore20connector20image201_900x595.jpg\" alt=\"GPI-Sitecore Connector-1\" width=\"900\" height=\"595\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The second option is called the <strong>Single Item Export<\/strong>, which allows you to pick an individual item from Sitecore&#8217;s content tree and send it for translation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/gpi20sitecore20connector20image202.png\" alt=\"gpi-Sitecore Connector-2\" width=\"775\" height=\"763\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The connector can be configured to export only the items you selected from Sitecore&#8217;s content tree or it can be configured to export related items as well. For example, if an item has a data source and points to other items in some of its fields (i.e. a field of type drop link), then the connector can be configured to also export those items.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Importing Translations into Sitecore<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Once the translations are ready, the connector allows you to import the translations by simply clicking a button. Each time you import translations, the connector will create a new version for each item and target language. For example, if you exported the item <em>About Habitat<\/em> for translation from English into French, German and Spanish then, when importing the translations, the connector will create a new version for each language (French, German and Spanish) for the item <em>About Habitat<\/em>. By doing that, you&#8217;ll be able to navigate through the history of the translations in Sitecore.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.globalizationpartners.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/gpi20sitecore20connector20image203_899x565.jpg\" alt=\"GPI-Sitecore Connector-3\" width=\"899\" height=\"565\" \/><\/p>\n<h5><strong>Supported Sitecore Products<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>Among the different products that Sitecore offers, GPI&#8217;s Translation Services Connector for Sitecore supports <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sitecore.com\/products\/sitecore-experience-platform\"> Sitecore Experience Platform (XP)<\/a><\/strong>. The supported versions are mainly 8 (on premise) and 9 (on premise), but it also supports older versions like 6 and 7.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p>GPI&#8217;s Translation Services Connector for Sitecore provides an integration between GPI and Sitecore to translate your content with just a few clicks. It alleviates the process of getting the content out of Sitecore and entering the translations manually.
