Translate Odoo without importing PO files every time.
Tecspek Translated Terms brings back the classic Translated Terms screen from older Odoo versions for Odoo 18. Edit Python, XML, QWeb, JavaScript, backend fields, and website snippets directly from Settings → Translations — sync once, translate inline, apply to your live website.
Translated Terms — one screen for everything
Search, filter, and edit translations inline. Status badges show what is done and what still needs work.
Why use this module?
In newer Odoo versions, the familiar Translated Terms menu disappeared. Translators were pushed toward PO file export/import cycles or the website editor alone — neither scales when you manage multiple languages across backend labels, Python messages, JavaScript, and homepage snippets.
No more PO round-trips
Type translations directly in Odoo. Changes apply to backend and frontend without exporting, editing, and re-importing PO files for every small fix.
Website snippets included
Homepage headlines, landing page blocks, and builder snippets sync into Translated Terms. One click Apply to Website pushes your translations to the live site in any language.
Code translations that stick
Python _() strings and JavaScript OWL labels load into the list and override module PO files at runtime via an in-memory cache.
Faster with Google Translate
Bulk or per-row auto-translate preserves Python placeholders like %(name)s. Review and fix before publishing.
What you can translate
Code (Python)
Backend messages, wizard text, validation errors from installed modules.

How it works — step by step
Load terms
Open Synchronize Terms. Enable Website Pages & Snippets. Select the target languages you need — any language installed in Odoo.
Fill values
Edit Translation Value inline, or use Auto Translate with Google. Each row’s Language field is the target language you are translating into.
Push to website
For website snippets, select rows and click Apply to Website. Backend code terms apply automatically on save via the translation cache.
Switch language on site
Open your website and switch between languages. Headlines and snippet text follow the visitor’s selected language. Clear browser cache if needed.
Which languages to sync?
This module works with every language installed in Odoo. Here is the simple rule:
Any installed language you want to translate into. Sync creates rows with empty Translation Value ready to fill.
Internal Source = original text from Odoo.
Translation Value = your translation.
Language = target language for that row.
Add as many languages as Odoo supports. Filter, group, and translate each one from the same list.
PO Import with code terms
Still use PO files when you want — this module extends the standard import to also load Python and JavaScript code translations.

Frequently asked questions
Does this work on Odoo Community and Enterprise?
Yes. Odoo 18 Community and Enterprise. Website snippet sync requires the website module (included in depends).
Does this work with all languages?
Yes. Any language active in Settings → Translations → Languages is supported for sync, edit, auto-translate, and website apply.
Why does the wrong language show on my website?
Usually translations were applied before saving the correct target language. Re-sync, confirm the Language field on each row, then click Apply to Website again.
I added a translation but the website still shows the source text?
Website snippet terms need Apply to Website after saving. Also check Internal Source matches the original text on the page exactly (spaces and punctuation).
Do I need internet for Google auto-translate?
Yes. Auto Translate uses Google’s public translate endpoint via the Python requests library. Manual editing works offline.
