Currently, SignUp is only available in English. However, many non-English-speaking participants successfully navigate our platform thanks to its simple and intuitive interface.
Using Your Preferred Language
You can define Spots (shifts, appointments, jobs, or items participants sign up for) in any language by entering your preferred terms in the text description fields. For example:
-
ToDo: Library Helper / Ayudante de Biblioteca
8 AM - 10 AM (5 spots) -
ToBring: Snacks for 20 kids / Bocadillos para 20 estudiantes
11 AM (1 spot)
Navigating the Site
While system buttons like Sign Up, Save, and Done are in English, they are designed to be intuitive and easy to understand. Additionally, Google Translate provides a free browser tool that can instantly translate SignUp’s interface.
Options:
- Make manual assignments: If only a few participants need assistance, you may choose to give them assignments manually. Learn how here: How can I add an assignment for a participant or volunteer?
- Use the Google Translate Extension in Chrome: If you have many non-English speakers, consider guiding them on using the Google Translate extension in their Chrome browser. More details: Accessing SignUp in Spanish (or another language) in Chrome
