Setting up Translator Accounts

Before you can send contents to translation, you need to set up translator accounts.
You can choose your own translators or translation services.

Go to Administer › Content management › Translation Management › Manage Translators.

This page shows all the translators in your site. Initially, it will be an empty list, so go ahead and click on Add translator >>.

First, choose the translation languages. Then, select where to get translators from.

You will see different translation services to choose from (the enabled translation modules in your site) and your own translators.

In this example, we're showing ICanLocalize and your own translators.

When you choose ICanLocalize, you get a list of translators in the language pair you've selected.

You can invite all of them to apply for your work, or send invitations to specific translators.

When you add your own translators, you'll get a list of Drupal users to choose from.

Each of your translators needs to have an account in Drupal. If they don't have one, you can create a new account and then return to this page.

Your own translators don't need to have any writing or editing privileges in Drupal. The Translation Management module gives them specific privileges to translate between the languages that you assign.
