Portuguese Language Pack for Sitefinity CMS to Localize the Admin Interface

The Portuguese Language Pack for Sitefinity CMS enables full translation of the administrative backend into Portuguese. Ideal for organizations with Portuguese-speaking content editors or regional teams, this localization pack improves usability, accelerates onboarding and supports broader adoption of the Sitefinity platform.

Overview

The Portuguese Language Pack allows you to translate the backend interface of Sitefinity CMS, enabling content editors, marketers and administrators to manage websites in their preferred language. Compatible from Sitefinity version 4.1 through the current release, the pack ensures smooth platform use for teams in Brazil, Portugal or any Portuguese-speaking region.

The pack is fully supported through version 11.1. For versions 11.2 and higher, new backend labels may require manual translation for complete coverage.

What Is the Portuguese Language Pack?

The Portuguese Language Pack is a community-supported resource that localizes the administrative interface of Sitefinity CMS. It replaces system labels, menu items and backend UI elements with Portuguese translations — helping organizations deliver an accessible and efficient experience for their internal teams.

Integration Overview

The pack is installed by downloading the appropriate .resx files from GitHub and importing them into your Sitefinity CMS project. Once added, Portuguese becomes available as a selectable backend UI language, allowing users to manage the platform in their native language.
