Dictionary Configuration

Dictionary Configuration Settings

The Dictionary configuration section provides access to settings relating to editing the data dictionary, and downloading translations and exceptions reports for the site.

The Dictionary Editor is a powerful tool for the administrator. Much the text on the site is editable using the dictionary editor. (For example, the Promo text on the Portal/Home page, or the Contact Us text in the Help/FAQ section.)

Dictionary Reports

Dictionary reports are available to administrators for use when either translating a site or auditing it for policy reasons.

They provide the ability to download all the text for a site that could be shown to a job seeker or employee. You can provide the reports to a third-party translator to get translated, or an auditor to ensure that the messages on the site meet organizational policies.

The reports are generated in Excel (CSV) format. They include tags that are for site text, email messages, error messages, apply modals, referral messages, user messages and help messages. They exclude configuration area elements.

The settings for the dictionary reports are in the Configuration area's Dictionary section. There are links to download two reports:

Translations
Exceptions

The Translations report includes:

A list of dictionary tag names.
The Data Class (Exception or Default).
Time stamps of when the tags where last rendered.
All language translations for a tag, downloaded in separate columns for each translation.
Client exceptions.
Where there isn't a translation exception, the corresponding field is blank.

The Exceptions report includes:

A list of tag IDs.
With the corresponding tag name.
Locale ID.
Tag value.
