How to change your versioning to translate your XLIFF doc for Rise. This is the process I use and it work.
- Log in to your Rise account using your credentials.
- Search the Rise module that needs to be translated.
- Click on the tree dot in the top right corner of the module.
- Select “Duplicate” and create a copy of the module.
- Access the copied module by clicking on it.
- Click on setting on the top bar
- On the Translation tab, click on “Export XLIFF File” button
- An XLIFF life has been downloaded in “Your Download”
- Open your XLIFF using Notepad++ (Right click on it and choose “Open with”)
- Click on the text on the top of the screen. The firs section will turn yellow, and, in that section, you will need to replace the versioning 1.2 by 2.1 (3 different place as shown in the picture bellow)
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 2.1
- Access your translation engine (DeepL, etc) and download the XLIFF doc for translation
- Once the document is translated, download it back into “Your download”
- The translated document will end with “fr-ca.xlf”
- You need to repeat the same process as #8 and change it back from 2.1 version to 1.2 at the same tree places using Notepad++.
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 1.2
- Access back your copy of the Rise module that you have exported the XLIFF doc and click on “Import Translated text” and select your document that finishes with “fr-ca.xlf”.
- Update the label to “French”
- Close this window by clicking on the “Close” button on the top right corner.
- The module is translated and ready for French QA
DeepL work around for Storyline:
If you export version 2.0, you can open the file in Notepad and change the version number in the header information to 2.1, save the file and then drop it into DeepL. Then take the translated file and open it in Notepad and change the version number in the header back to 2.0. Then you can import the translated file into your Storyline course.
Don't have a work around for Rise courses, however, as can't get an edit to a 1.2 version file to work the same way. The header is built differently, and it doesn't work the same way.
...AND... we have a few hundred Rise courses we need to translate and are under a tight timeline...so not sure what to do about that... We REALLY need to have Rise able to export version 2.1 immediately!!
