Botpress noob here. Question: If I want my chatbot in another language, what do I do?

07/07/2023, 1:42 AMHey @echoing-bear-33041, what do you mean it's in other language? You wrote the questions and texts in one language and you need it to be displayed in another?
early-train-33247
07/07/2023, 1:42 AMIf yes, enable the Translator Agent, and it will speak whatever language the user speaks

07/07/2023, 1:43 AMYou could also hard-set the language at the first node, by adding a Set Language card

07/07/2023, 5:10 AMHey @early-train-33247
I want to make the bot userfriendly for Swedish people so I would like for them to ask the chatbot in Swedish and I would like the chatbot to respond in Swedish.
Thanks in advance! 🙂

07/08/2023, 12:55 AMSo it should be user-friendly to Swedish people TOO or ONLY? haha
I ask because the configuration is different for each

07/08/2023, 12:56 AMIf you want the bot to be multilingual, enable the Translator Agent (robot head), and enable both options. Then it shall speak whatever language the user does! 😉

07/08/2023, 1:00 AMThank you so much for your help!
I actually re-read what you wrote after I sent my last message and today when I tried my first ever chatbot I used Translator Head for the bot to be multilingual and it's amazing!
The only downside is that in some nodes, I have to use Swedish in the "text" card so that the bot delivers the message in Swedish but sometimes it translates the Swedish to English and in those nodes I have to use English in the "text" card because it then correctly translates it into Swedish, not sure how to fix that. 😄

07/08/2023, 1:04 AMThat's a paradoxical bug, I didn't quite get it 🤔 haha
early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 1:04 AMYou should use the same language throughout the bot, to avoid any problems
early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 1:06 AMAnd if you would like to allow users to define the language, you could ask them with a Single Choice card, store the value in a variable, and use that variable as an input for the Set User Language card, which hard sets the language

07/08/2023, 1:06 AMin which case you would need to disable both options of the Translator Agent

07/08/2023, 4:21 PMI like that idea!
I am still a noob but I think I understood what you wrote and I will do my best to implement it!

early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 4:21 PMGo to the first node of your conversation, and click Add card
early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 4:22 PMIn the bottom of the Cards panel that will show up, there is an "Set User Language Card", click on it and it will be added
early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 4:22 PMNow type in the desired language in the ISO format - en, fr etc
early-train-33247
07/08/2023, 4:23 PMThis will only work if you have the Translator Agent enabled and with both options disabled

echoing-bear-33041
07/08/2023, 4:25 PMJust did it, thank you for the guidance!
I did kind of like the bot being able to answer the questions in any language the user used but I think this is better and with less bugs, the advance stuff will come with time. 😄

07/08/2023, 8:41 PMI have sent you two questions which I have deleted since I resolved the issues I had but I would love to ask you another question, and if you are busy - no worries.
I did exactly what you said with the language card.
I enabled the agent and disabled both options. When I got to my knowledge base node it translated my Swedish question/(single choice question) for the user into a English one.
I put the language card in the first option inside the knowledge node (which is the node where the actual typing of questions start) and I also tried switching the language card to the first node closest to "start". None worked.
I then disabled the agent and now when I ask my bot questions in Swedish, it replies in Swedish, only sometimes it replies in English (When I ended the question for the chatbot with English words).
This became a very long message, appreciate any help! 🙂
