After your Mintlify docs are set up and translating, use this guide to keep them up to date as your content and language needs change.

## Keep translations up to date [#continuous]

Locadex uses the trigger saved in **Generate translations and push**. Use **A pull request changes** to translate proposed changes before merging, or **A commit is pushed** to translate updates after they reach the target branch. Locadex reuses an open pull request for the same automation branch and opens a new one after the previous PR is merged or closed.

Open **Project > Automations**, select the automation, and click **Run now** to trigger it yourself. Review or change automatic merging in [Auto-merging Locadex PRs](/docs/platform/locadex/guides/auto-merging-prs).

## Add or remove languages [#languages]

1. In the Dashboard, open **Project > Automations**.
2. Select **Keep locales in sync**, creating it from the template if necessary.
3. Click **Run now**, then change the **source locale** or add and remove **target languages**.
4. Confirm the run. Locadex opens a pull request that updates the locale configuration and the `docs.json` navigation, and translates content for any newly added languages.
5. Review and merge the pull request to apply the change.

Only locales that map to a supported Mintlify language can be added. See [Locales](/docs/integrations/mintlify/reference/locales) and the shared [Managing languages](/docs/platform/locadex/guides/managing-languages) guide.

## Edit generated translations [#edit]

Translations are stored as files in your repository, so you can edit them like any other content:

* Edit the translated `.mdx` or `.md` files directly and commit the change.
* Edit translations in the General Translation Dashboard.

Locadex translates new and changed source content and does not overwrite your manual edits to already translated pages.
