Multilingual sections

Set localized titles for your site, sections, section groups, and navigation

Localized titles let you show different titles for different languages on your published site.

Visitors see the title that matches the language they’re browsing in. If a translation isn’t set, GitBook shows the fallback title instead.

Use localizedTitle for header links and buttons, footer links, and footer groups. See Layout and structure.

Localized titles only appear when your site includes content in more than one language.

Set up localized titles

1

Open the structure editor

From your docs site, open Site structure, under General in the site sidebar.

2

Find the title you want to translate

Open the title field for your site, a section, or a section group.

3

Set the fallback title

By default, the fallback title is set to the current section name.

4

Add each translated title

Open the language selector again and choose a language.

Enter the title for that language, then repeat for each language you support.
