Create separate content versions for different languages by clicking the "Add" button at the bottom of your main content sections (Bio, Overview, or Description). Select a publication from your assigned list, choose the language for that publication, then write your content in that language. Each listing can have unlimited language versions, allowing you to communicate authentically with diverse communities across Heritage Web's network.

Multi-language content lets you reach clients in their preferred language across Heritage Web's 300+ publications. Rather than using automatic translation, you create authentic content in each language, ensuring cultural appropriateness and professional communication.
