Closed Caption Translations (1 training in multiple Languages)
Hello Articulate Storyline Experts!
I work for a global company where we have people that speak a variety of languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Japanese & Korean).
For these we typically have a training in English, and then subtitles in each of the variety of languages.
Is there a trick to creating 1 training with options to choose which language the Closed Captions should be? (Right now I'm creating each training first in English, then Copying the training & adding a different Language in the CC. Making 6 different files).
Or a trick to Exporting the Closed Captions typed in to be translated?
Any input is appreciated.

Hi Carola!
Thanks for reaching out!
I've added your voice to the feature report being tracked and will update this discussion if it makes it onto our Feature Roadmap.
Have a great day!
Please also add my name to the request. Not only is my company a global entity but each of our locations employ a diverse population with first languages other than English. Having the ability to offer our in-house courses with the ability to change easily to their language would be a useful and inclusive tool.
Hi Amanda!
Thanks for sharing feedback on the type of functionality you'd like to see in Storyline 360!
I've included you in the feature report and will update this discussion as soon as we have news to share. If you'd like to stay up to date, you can bookmark our Feature Roadmap.
Have a great start to your week!
Please also add my voice to the feature request! We've got 2024 and this feature is everywhere, so why not in Elearning courses with ARticulate?
I agree that this functionality would be incredibly useful. As previously mentioned, by another poster, this function is available in Rise...so having it available in Storyline is the clear next step.
Hi. We've done some great work with Storyline and credit to the Articulate Team for reaching out and have an open dialogue with customers.
Is there an update on the language support for closed captions - there are threads within the forum where customers - have requested/asked for the functionality over 5 years ago?
With video/animation now being so integral to many workplaces and many organisations supporting multiple languages this is a level of functionality that is now becoming required with the L&D toolkit.
Thanks for reading,Hi,
Please add my voice to the request. We have over 80 languages for our content. I hope you start making updates to the software very soon.
Hi, please add me to this list. I work for a global company and need translations into 11 languages. It's really disappointing that this is not available in Storyline 360, especially as it is already available in Rise.
Hi there - please also add me to the list of users requiring the multiple languages in closed captions functionality. It is a game-changer for us!
I need this feature too. I'm really surprised that Articulate 360 doesn't offer this functionality for global companies. I have a Storyline 360 course in English. The owner needs closed captions added in 5 languages. Similar to a webpage, I'd like to see an option in the player to select from multiple languages and display the language in closed captions.
Hello Tanya,
Thanks for letting us know that multiple languages for Closed Captions will also be helpful for you! I've added your voice to the request.
Agreed! My global team really needs a product that works for a multilingual audience! Add me to the list of users who really need this feature!
Hi Erin!
