# LMS Contents Translation
Translatable LMS Contents are:
* [**Lessons**](#translate-lessons)
* [**Assignments**](#translate-assignments)
* [**Quizzes**](#translate-quizzes)
* [**Courses**](#translate-a-course)
* **Course Bundles**
## Example Course Translation
Before translating a course, its contents[^1] should be translated first. We will translate one existing course as an example. Here is the example course, **Web Coding and Apache Basics**:
We will translate its lessons first, then the assignments.
{% hint style="success" %}
First, make sure you[ **have translated**](https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/masterstudy-theme-documentation/additional-features/polylang-integration/..#translating-lms-pages) all the **LMS Pages.**
{% endhint %}
### Translate Lessons
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Follow **WP Dashboard > MS LMS > Lessons.** On this page, click on the ➕ icon in the :flag\_es:**Spanish** column:
{% hint style="info" %}
This action creates a new lesson with empty content and assigns this lesson as the Spanish duplicate of the selected lesson.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Write down the **title** of the lesson in Spanish and click on the **Publish** button:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Click on the **Edit with Course Builder** to edit the lesson content:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Provide the translation of the lesson duration, short description, and the lesson content. In our example, it's Spanish. Then click on the **Save** (*Guarder* in Spanish) button:
{% hint style="info" %}
Media content (videos, audios, etc) can not be translated and replaced. The same media will be used for all languages. Only text-based content can be translated.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English (Original)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Spanish (Translated)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
### Translate Assignments
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Follow **WP Dashboard > MS LMS > Assignments.** On this page, click on the ➕ icon in the :flag\_es:**Spanish** column:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Provide the **title** of the Assignment and click on the **Publish** button:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Edit the Assignment with Course Builder:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Provide the translation of the **Assignment Content** and **Save** the changes:
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English (Original)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Spanish (Translated)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
### Translate Quizzes
{% hint style="info" %}
Quizzes in MasterStudy LMS are a **collection of questions**. But questions and their answers are linked to each other, and this complex connection makes the **questions untranslatable**, unlike other LMS content. However, you can translate the quiz title.
As a solution, a new quiz with its questions in Spanish can be created from zero for the course inside of the Course Builder.
{% endhint %}
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
First, we should have an existing translated course. In the curriculum of the translated course, you can create a new quiz:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Enter the questions with answers, and save the changes:
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
Here is the result:
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English (Original)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Spanish (Translated)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
However, if you prefer to translate the quiz only, leaving the question, you can follow these steps:
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Follow **WP Dashboard > MS LMS > Quizzes.** On this page, click on the ➕ icon in the :flag\_es:**Spanish** column:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Provide the **title** of the **Quiz** and click on the **Publish** button:
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}
### Translate a Course
After translating the Lessons and Assignments, you can translate the course itself.
{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Follow **WP Dashboard > MS LMS > Courses.** On this page, click on the ➕ icon in the :flag\_es:**Spanish** column:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Provide the course title and click on **Publish**:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Edit the Course with Course Builder:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
The new course comes with an empty curriculum. We have to create new sections and import the translated lessons. So, first create sections:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
To import the lessons, click on the Search Materials, then choose the translated versions of the [**Lessons** ](#translate-lessons)and [**Assignments**](#translate-assignments), then click on the **Import** button. You can use the search field or filtering to find the lessons:
{% hint style="info" %}
For the quizzes, it is recommended to create them right here in the course builder.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
Once you are finished with the Curriculum, move to the Settings (*Ajustes* in Spanish) tab:
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
All of the course settings except for **text-based info** are already inherited from the original course. Therefore, here you have to provide the translation for the **Course Description** and the **Course Preview Description**:
{% hint style="info" %}
Make sure you select the course category.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="success" %}
In the **Certificates** tab of the [**Course Settings**](#user-content-fn-2)[^2]**,** you can attach any certificate to the course.\
Certificate translation is not required—in fact, there's no need to translate an existing certificate. Instead, simply[ **create**](https://docs.stylemixthemes.com/masterstudy-theme-documentation/masterstudy-lms-pro-addons/certificate-builder#creating-a-certificate) a version of the certificate in the target language and assign it here. You can attach different certificates for the same course, each in a different language.
{% endhint %}
{% endstep %}
{% step %}
### Great, now you can view the course:
{% tabs %}
{% tab title="English (Original)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% tab title="Spanish (Translated)" %}
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Besides LMS Contents, you can translate the rest of your website (header, footer, other theme elements) and add a **Language switcher** accordingly. To learn more about the Polylang features, kindly refer to this manual:
