# Translate Modules

### Overview

Network administrators can configure module label translations in the Admin Portal to support up to 30 languages, ensuring users see labels in their preferred language. If no translation is available, the system defaults to English. Admins can also edit the default system labels, though the translation feature must be deactivated to modify these default labels.

### Customizing System Default Labels Without Translation

Admins can modify the default system label of a module without using the translation feature.&#x20;

To do this, navigate to the **Admin Portal** > **Modules**. Select the module (e.g., Home) and click the **Module** **Settings** button.

Enter the desired text in the label text box then click **Save** to set the custom label.

{% hint style="danger" %}
The translation feature **must be deactivated** to make these changes. Activating translation  will reset any custom labels.
{% endhint %}
