Change Search Client Interface Language

You can change the interface language of your search clients if you are an admin. SearchUnify remembers your language settings so that all new users can interact with their search clients in the new default language and the existing users can migrate to the new language interface by deleting their browser cache.

Support for interface languages comes in two categories: 

  1. Native Support: Arabic, German, French, and Mandarin Chinese.
  2. Extended Support: Armenian, Basque, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Catalan, Czech, Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Gaelic, Greek, Hindi, Indonesian, Irish Gaelic, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Kurdish, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, and Thai.

Changing a search client interface to a Native Support language has been explained in Changing Interface Language (Native). Using a search client interface in any of the Extended Support languages is slightly more complex and the instructions are in Changing Interface Language (Extended) .
