Front End Language Options

The Google Search Appliance can present search results pages in a language other than English, the
default. You also can have several languages active for your users and the search appliance will present
search results for an active language based on the settings detected in the user’s computer.

The search appliance allows multiple stylesheets that present the search page, advanced search, and
results pages in different languages, all associated with a single front end. The language-specific
stylesheet is selected based on the Accept-language header sent from the user’s browser. The
stylesheet is selected from the set of languages marked “active”; if there is no match, the default
language is used.

Selecting a Language for a Front End

To change the default language for a front end, use the Language drop-down menu on the Output
Format tab of the Search > Search Features > Front Ends page in the Admin Console.

To make a language active, use either the Page Layout Helper or the XSLT Stylesheet Editor. A
language-specific stylesheet is created when you make a language active. You can customize the
stylesheet for each language independently.
