The information below is quite lengthy and complex. If you need help or notice any inconsistencies, please let us know on the l10n forum.
Table of Contents
What are UI strings?
Each element of the SUMO site interface that is text, but not the help content itself - all the buttons and navigation links. The text of each such element is a "string".
We currently have two servers for SUMO:
- https://support.mozilla.org - our real server, also known as "prod" (short for "production")
- https://support.allizom.org - out release testing server (this is not a server to test localizations - a broken string will be a broken string both here and on the production server).
The strings you translate are regularly transferred to the testing and production servers, where you can see them in action.
Where can I localize strings?
We use different tools to localize UI strings, depending on the choices made by locale teams. Please ask your Locale Leaders about the details for your locale.
UI strings for SUMO are localized in a variety of tools:
- Pontoon - the most popular tool - developed and maintained by Mozilla's L10n Team. You can find the documentation that explains how to use Pontoon here.
Pootle is still being set up for Mozilla l10n, more links will appear below as they become available. Thank you for your patience.
- Pootle - used by several locales - an updated version of the legacy tool (Verbatim)

Detailed instructions for using Pontoon can be found here.
