Set up workflows on memoQ server

To start translating a WordPress job, you need to create an online project from it. memoQ server can do this automatically, if the CMS dashboard has a workflow for that job.

A workflow matches a translation job if:

  • it comes from a connection that is specified in the workflow, and
  • its source language is one of the workflow's source languages, and
  • all of its target languages in the job are listed in the workflow.

To create a workflow:

  1. Open the CMS dashboard, and click the Workflows tab.
  2. Under the Automated workflows list, click the Add new workflow button.
  3. Fill in the fields under Workflow details: Type a name for the new workflow.
  4. Choose its Source language.
  5. Add Target language(s) as needed.
  6. Choose the Project template you want to use. memoQ server has a built-in template called Default CMS workflow. Try it, and change it as needed.
  7. To view information about the selected project template: click the links under Project template.
  8. Click Naming patterns and hints to see how the project resources are named, and gives tips about how you should set them.
  9. Click Review the template settings to open the Template overview window.
  10. Select a Project manager for the projects created with this workflow.
