Localize Org Chart in SharePoint and Microsoft Teams

Org Chart allows changing strings in the user interface since version 2.2.30. You can use this functionality to translate user interface to your language.

Note

You may find the full structure of the localization object at the end of this article.

The picture below will help you to understand the structure of the localization strings:

Localization strings

You need to open the configuration wizard and navigate to the Custom code step. Then you can override strings like this:

Plumsail.OrgChart.LocalizationStrings.SearchInputWatermark = "Suche";
Plumsail.OrgChart.LocalizationStrings.Settings.PrintOrgChart.Title = "Drucken";
Plumsail.OrgChart.LocalizationStrings.Settings.ManageVacancies = "Stellenangebote";
Plumsail.OrgChart.LocalizationStrings.Settings.ClearCache = "Cache leeren";
Plumsail.OrgChart.LocalizationStrings.Settings.Help = "Über";
Change Localization Strings
