Hi,

How can use user fields as multi-language? Is is possible?

> /site/blueprints/users/user.yml

```
fields:
    title:
        label: Title
        type: text
    company:
        label: Company
        type: text
    biography:
        label: Biography
        type: text

```

Thanks

Just like other field labels:

```auto
fields:
  title:
    label: Title
    type: text
  company:
    label: 
      en: Company
      de: Firma
    type: text
  biography:
    label:
      en: Biography
      de: Biografie
    type: text

```

Or what exactly do you mean?

I want to translate the content not label.

That’s not possible, unless you use different fields for each language, I’m afraid. An alternative would be to store this kind of information as normal Kirby pages.

I’m using with ‘\_en’, ‘\_tr’ prefix for now.  
Is this feature considered in later versions?

I have no information regarding this feature (and wouldn’t be entitled to disclose it here at the mo, I’m afraid).
