Languages & Translations

Supported languages

Supported languages depend from the component of Peripass:

  • Self service kiosk: 15 default languages + any language* you configure yourself.

  • Driver communication: any language* you configure yourself

  • Management portal: 6 fixed languages: English, French, German, Dutch, Spanish & Italian

*Only languages with roman characters. On the kiosk languages can be displayed, but input is limited to qwerty, azerty and qwertz.

🖥️ How to set up

Peripass allows to translate all your communication in any language (1). In a lot of places in Peripass, you will see a tab name “Translations”. This means that the topic you are configuring could be displayed to visitors and therefore needs a translation.

Translations can be imported in bulk: Bulk translations import/export

For each tenant, you can choose what languages should be supported. You can do this in the general configuration.


What custom languages are supported?

Peripass supports all roman languages.

For non roman languages following limitations apply:

Troubleshooting

After uploading the excel there is a "success" message and then nothing happens

Behavior: There is no line in the log informing that the import is “running”.

Probable root cause: the excel file has been altered in a way that prevents it to be uploaded.

Solution: take a new export. Copy paste the data of your original file in the new exported file and upload again.
