Forum posts now available in 10 languages!

Dear community members, :slightly_smiling_face:

We’re pleased to share an important update to make this forum more inclusive and accessible for everyone navigating the complex pathway with hepatitis B.

:speech_balloon: We recently have implemented an AI-powered translation feature that allows all posts and topics to be translated into more than 10 languages :globe_showing_europe_africa: (English, Chinese traditional, Chinese simplified, Vietnamese, Korean, Thai, Spanish, French, Swahili, Arabic).

You may have already noticed it. We hope this will make it easier to understand, share experiences, and access support for anyone in need.

Please note:

  • AI is used only for translation purposes. No other AI tools are used in this forum.
  • Private messages and posts that are only for members are not automatically translated.

:gear: How to Activate the Translation Feature

The feature may already be active on your account. If not, please follow these steps:

1) Check your interface language

  • Click on your profile icon

  • Go to Preferences

  • Select Interface

  • Choose your preferred language

  • Click Save changes


  1. Refresh the page and log out

  2. Clear your browser data (cookies, cache, etc.)

  3. Log in again to hepbcommunity. Org. Your interface should now appear in the selected language.

  4. Translate a topic

  • Open any topic

  • Click the AI translation icon


Translation is automatic. You can return to the original language at any time by clicking the same icon.

For visitors who are not logged in, the forum automatically detects the browser language and translates content when available.

We hope this feature helps expand access to trusted, community-led information and support. Please share the news and contact us if you experience any issues.

We would also love to hear your feedback.

Have a great day

Marion

Thanks @marion.heriveau for your support and highlighting this exciting new step.

I also wanted to clarify that even if you type in a different language (even outside these 10 languages) the translations will appear for everyone else. So we do encourage everyone to type in whatever language they feel most comfortable with when on this forum!

We are also keen to hear about everyone’s experiences (both positive and negative) around this new feature.

Cheers,

Thomas
