Changing your portal language

This guide explains how to change the interface language for all portal users (available to administrators only) or for an individual user account.

As mentioned above, the ONLYOFFICE platform offers two language selection types:

  • general - to set the language for new portal users,
  • individual - to set the language for a specific user account only.

General Language Selection

This language selection type is available to portal administrators only. Please proceed through the following steps to change your portal language:

  1. Sign in to your portal using your credentials.
  2. Click the Settings Icon icon in the upper-right corner to open Settings. The Customization page will be displayed.
  3. Open the Language drop-down menu and select the necessary language from the list of available options.
  4. Click Save.

The selected language will be applied to all portal users.

Individual Language Selection

This language selection type is available to any portal user. Please follow the steps below to change the language for your account:

  1. Enter your portal using your login details.
  2. Click your name at the top of the page and select Profile from the list.
  3. Select the language for your portal from the Language drop-down menu.

The default language on each user's profile page corresponds to the language configured in the portal settings by an administrator. Once the steps above are completed, the language change will apply to your account only.

Additional Information

Language not available in the drop-down menu

This means that no translation is available for this language yet, or that one is currently in progress. To contribute, refer this guide on becoming an ONLYOFFICE translator or write to us at documentation@onlyoffice.com. You can find the list of all languages that are already available at your portal or being translated here.
