Mighty Networks does not have full language localization, meaning some defaults aren’t available in languages other than English. However, many non-English and even multilingual Mighty Networks have leveraged the ability to customize their communities in fantastic ways!

​
What You Can Customize

You can rename the following in any language:
  • Your Network name
  • Collections
  • Spaces
  • Features within Spaces

​
Example: Creating a Spanish Network

For a Spanish-language network, you might use terms like:
  • Talleres (instead of Workshops)
  • Chat Comunal (instead of Community Chat)
  • Grupos Cercanos (instead of Local Groups)
  • Miembros (instead of Members)
This customization gets you about 85% of the way to full localization.

​
Addressing Default Terms

For default terms that cannot be customized (like “Personal Settings”), you have options:

​
1. Welcome Video

Create a quick welcome video explaining what default English terms mean in your members’ language. This helps onboard members who may not be familiar with English.

​
2. Google Translate Extension

Show members how to use the Google Translate browser extension to automatically translate any default text in a Mighty Network to hundreds of different languages.

​
Best Practices for Non-English Networks

  • Customize all customizable elements in your target language
  • Create onboarding materials that explain any English-only defaults
  • Use your network description and welcome content to set language expectations
  • Consider creating help articles or FAQs in your members’ language
  • Build a welcoming committee of multilingual members who can help new members navigate
While not perfect, these customization options allow you to create an engaging, accessible community experience in any language.
