Overview
Custom HTML blocks previously sat outside Thrive's auto-translation engine, so learners in non-English locales could hit a block of untranslated English in an otherwise fully translated space or piece of content. This release closes that gap.
What's new
- Custom HTML blocks are now included automatically in Thrive's auto-translation engine
- No admin action is needed, translation applies on top of existing auto-translation
- This release covers automatic translation only, there is no learner-triggered option
Why / benefits
- Removes a real gap in language coverage for global organisations
- Keeps the learner experience consistent, with no untranslated islands of content
- Reduces the need for admins to manually build region-specific HTML blocks
How it works
- When a learner views a space or piece of content in a language other than the one it was authored in, any custom HTML block is translated automatically alongside the rest of the content
- No new settings or admin steps are required
Use cases
- A compliance space with a custom-branded HTML block summarising a policy is now automatically translated for every learner, regardless of language setting.
People/personas
- Learners in global, multi-language organisations get the most value from this, particularly where HTML blocks carry branded or region-specific content
