How do I translate custom fields based on the recipient's language?

With Cloze you can translate custom fields and templates to ensure that the recipient receives your content in their local language. For example, when sending properties to a potential buyer the template can dynamically change to display the description, email subject, custom field labels, and button labels in the recipient's preferred language. Cloze will use the country and formatting options set in their Cloze profile to display the translated content. By default, the contact's country is used to select the formatting and translated content. 

Translating specific content

For any Cloze template you can translate:

• The subject of the email
• The body of the email
• Custom Fields and associated picklist values (see below for more details)
• Property (or Deal, Project, Sale, Job, etc..) descriptions
• Marketing Email button labels (see below for more details)

Cloze automatically selects the translation based on the contact

In this example, because the formatting is set to automatic and the country is set to Italy, any content that has been translated to Italian will be used. 

A preferred language can also be set by tapping on the Formatting dropdown and selecting a language. 

In this example, because the formatting is set to English, any translated content will use English instead of Italian. 

How to translate custom fields based on the recipient's language

Both custom field labels and values (picklists) can be translated. 

Here are step-by-step instructions on how to create translations for a Custom Field. 

1.) Tap on More (...) in the lower right of your screen on mobile (iOS/Android) and lower left on cloze.com. 

2.) Tap on Settings

3.) Scroll down to the Customizations section and tap on Custom Fields to expand the section. 

4.) Tap on the gear icon next to People, Companies, or Deals (Projects/Properties/Jobs, etc.).

5.) Tap on the gear icon next to the field you wish to translate. 

Or, if you are creating a new field tap on the Add button and then select Field. 

6.) Then name your field and select and select the Date Data Type from the dropdown.

In this example, we are adding translations to the custom field called "Price".

7.) Tap on Add next to New Language. 

In this example, we are adding translations to the custom field called "Price".

8.) Select each language you wish to include.

Cloze will include a translation for the field name automatically, but you can make refinements as needed after you select each language. 

 9.) Tap on the Save button when you are done.
