My customer base uses multiple languages... I'd like to be able to write changelog entries in multiple languages accordingly.

    Okay, thanks! But can I write a single changelog entry which includes translations for each of (for example) three languages? Or would those be three separate entries, each in its own language? And then how does that get sorted out on the frontend? (In other words, where/how do I designate that a changelog entry is in a particular language?)

      With the current solution, these would have to be separate entries.

      For each entry, you can specify which users get access to it.

      For example, you can first create user roles for: "Language A", "Language B", etc.

      Then you can create segments for these roles, (e.g. Language A segment will only select users in the Language A role):

      After that, you can simply pick the newly created language segment when creating a changelog for each language under the "Targeted users" section:

        Let me know if you're interested in the user roles feature so I can put you on the enterprise trial. It isn't very expensive if you only need that feature from it.

    Hey @Andrew Martinez-Fonts,

    This is already pretty much available via our changelog segmentation feature.

    With the Enterprise plan, you could assign users to roles to specify their language and then send separate changelog entries to each language (specified by the role).

      Interesting workaround Bruno! 🙂

      But this workaround won’t work for a public changelog where users are not signed in.

      I also think it would be much easier for a user to have a single post with translations to set.

      Or maybe just an auto-translation with a LLM. Like for feedbacks auto-translated
