How ConveyThis works on Zendesk

ConveyThis runs inside your Zendesk help center theme. You paste the snippet into the document_head.hbs template, publish, and the help center gains a language switcher that translates articles, section and category pages, search results and request-form labels for each visitor.

It does not touch tickets, agent replies or emails, only the public help center pages carrying the snippet. Because translations are produced automatically, you avoid writing a translated copy of every article with matching translated sections and categories, which is how Zendesk's built-in localization works.

Zendesk help center translation: common questions

How is this different from Zendesk's translated articles and dynamic content?
In Zendesk, a translated article is a separate version you add per language (by hand, or with Zendesk's AI article translation if you have the Copilot add-on), and it only shows if its section and category are translated too. Dynamic content is for short snippets such as a welcome message or footer text. ConveyThis translates the rendered help center automatically, keeps edits in its own dashboard, and picks up new articles without anyone creating language versions.
Where does the snippet go in my Zendesk theme?
After creating your ConveyThis account and choosing Zendesk, copy the snippet. In Zendesk, open Knowledge admin (formerly Guide), click the Customize design icon, open your theme and choose Edit code. Select document_head.hbs under Templates, paste the snippet and publish. The Zendesk setup guide shows each step.
Do new and updated help center articles get translated?
Yes. The widget reads the page each time it loads and keeps watching it, so an article published this morning, a reworded paragraph or search results that appear after typing are translated without a manual sync. Changes you make in the visual editor are kept, and glossary rules make sure product and feature names come out the same way every time.
Will translated help center pages get separate URLs for Google?
On yourcompany.zendesk.com ConveyThis runs in its default mode. For language sub-domains, the help center needs a custom domain whose DNS you control; Zendesk calls this host mapping and uses a CNAME record for an address such as support.yourcompany.com. With that set up, sub-domains with hreflang tags are available on the Business plan or higher. Read the sub-domain setup steps.
Can I leave some help center sections in English?
Yes. Use excluded-page rules to skip URLs that start with, end with, contain or equal a path you enter, such as an internal-only section, or the whitelist to translate only the pages you list. Inside a template or article you can add the conveythis-no-translate class to a single element. Both are described in excluding pages and elements.
