Good day!

How to create multilingual application in Corona SDK?

The term you are seeking is ‘localization’:

You can search the site for that as follows:

Google ==> site: coronalabs.com localization

https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=site+coronalabs.com+localization

That search turned  up this info, but I’m sure there will be more: https://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/distribution/localization/index.html

Note: This is not a small topic, so be prepared to do a bit of work on this, depending on how extensive your assets and app are to be localized.  i.e. It’s pretty easy to change a few images based on locale, but if you need to change all of the text, sounds, … that will be more work to set up and achieve.

My free plugin will help with the in-game language translation.

I activated the plugin, but no download links.

Have done in the documentation to look at, thanks!

I believe you activate the plugin, add it to your build.settings,  and the files magically appear when you build. :slight_smile:

There should be a link for the documentation, but here is it as well.
