Joomla integration

Connect seamlessly to your Joomla site to automatically pull your content into Smartcat and push it back when translated.

How does the integration work?

The integration pulls your content from a specific Joomla site to Smartcat. Once the translation is complete, it will be automatically pushed back to your Joomla site.

How do I use the integration?

1. In Joomla, install the Smartcat Translation Manager plugin.

2. In Smartcat, generate an API key and paste it in Joomla > Smartcat Translation Manager > Configuration.

3. In Joomla > System > Control Panel > Languages, choose the language(s) you want to translate to.

4. Whenever you need one or more articles translated, simply choose in Content > Articles and click “Submit for translation.”

5. Translate the content using standard Smartcat features.

Once the translation is complete, it will be automatically pushed back to your Joomla site.

How can I benefit from the integration?

Once the integration is configured, you'll have access to all of Smartcat's features for the benefit of your project.

  • You can translate your content without any delays, bypassing the need to download, upload, or send it to your translators.

  • You can leverage Smartcat’s translation memory and glossary features with your project to improve translation quality and consistency, as well as save money on repeated translations.

  • By using Smartcat’s machine translation features with your project, you can obtain a quick and rough translation of your content or configure hybrid machine-human translation processes.

  • Smartcat allows you to invite your translators to work on your project without providing them access to your source material or needing, and to find new translation providers in the marketplace.
