UI Localization / Customization

Purpose: change the default language for better localized user experience

The language displayed in MetaDefender Kiosk can be changed from the Configuration > Languages

The default languages included are:

  • English
  • Arabic
  • French
  • German
  • Hebrew
  • Japanese
  • Korean
  • Spanish
  • Vietnamese

Edit a language

Click on Add Display Language if you wish to add a language or edit existing languages displayed on the Kiosk UI.

Add a language

Click Add Display Language to add a new language, then type in the desired language name. On the following page, create translations for the text to be displayed in MetaDefender Kiosk. Each string has a max limit of characters to avoid any display issues on the UI. It is recommended to keep messages as concise as possible.

  • If the language you are adding reads right to left, make sure to check Right to left option
  • Languages can be either disabled or enabled through the Management Console. Disabled languages will not be available to Kiosk users as options.
  • The Language Order value will determine the order in which languages are displayed to Kiosk users when they are selecting a language in the Kiosk user interface. Lower numbers will be displayed first.
  • Upload Disclaimer value will show the corresponding disclaimer HTML file of that language. By default, the Opswat's EULA in English will be used. However, you have the option to browse and upload your own customized disclaimer file to replace it. For more detailed information, please refer to Disclaimer Screen Customization

Once finished, click Save at the bottom of the page and the language will now appear in the Choose Language drop down.

Allow users to select languages

Configuration -> Advanced Configuration -> Allow user to select languages controls whether users can select which language to use from the UI. If the option is deselected, the current active language will be locked in and users will not be able to modify the language to display.
