• on 
• yes
• true
• off (default)
• no
• false

This directive controls if Markdown code blocks are ingested for translation.

When set to on/true, Markdown code blocks are not ingested into Smartling for translation.

• on 
• yes
• true
• off (default)
• no
• false

Enables the Yaml Front Matter block processing for the markdown.

Must be used with yaml_front_matter.

Used only as an external api parameter.

smartling.yfm_block_enabled=yes

• on 
• yes
• true
• off (default)
• no
• false

The option for recognizing Frontmatter allows you to include the YAML Frontmatter (yfm) block for translation. 

To exclude some of YAML Frontmatter variables, the following directive can be used:
smartling.no_translate_keys = <comma-separated keys>,
for example:

smartling.no_translate_keys = title, example.custom.text

smartling.yaml_front_matter = on

Smartling will capture content between each — for translation

smartling.yaml_front_matter = on

—
layout: post
title: Blogging Like a Hacker
description: This is a description
—

• on 
• yes
• true
• off (default)
• no
• false

Excludes some of Yaml Front Matter block keys from translation.

Used only when smartling.yfm_block_enabled is activated.

Used only as an external api parameter.

smartling.yfm_block_enabled=yes

variants_strategy

• none (default)
• context_match
• repetition_indexed

(case-insensitive)

This directive can only be used as an API parameter.

context_match: enables ICE variants functionality.

repetition_indexed: enables the "string indexes as variants for repeated strings" functionality that is the default behavior for business docs.

smartling.force_block_for_tags=br

Enables string separation by <br> tags

placeholder_format

Specifies iOS-style placeholders for the file.

smartling.primary_placeholder_format_custom = REGEX

smartling.primary_placeholder_format_custom=\{([^}]+)\}

Any characters surrounded by curly brackets, e.g., {first name}, will be treated as a placeholder.

Sets the percentage by which original strings are inflated when downloading pseudo translations. If this directive is not set, pseudo translations are 30 percent longer than the original strings.

smartling.pseudo_inflation = 80

Downloaded pseudo translations will increase the length of original strings by 80 percent.

whitespace_trim

on|yes|true or off|no|false or leading|trailing

The default value is on.

A whitespace is any character or series of characters that represent horizontal or vertical space in typography. When rendered, a whitespace character is not a visible mark, but does occupy an area or space on a page.

Although whitespaces are necessary within a string (typically to separate words), unnecessary whitespaces can be found at the start of a string (leading) and at the end of a string (trailing).

With this directive, you can trim whitespaces, as it enables or disables whitespace trim management for the ingested strings.

Whitespace is optionally trimmed from content then re-inserted on download for convenience so that translators do not have to manage the extra spaces. However, content owners may want to retain surrounding whitespace so that translators can
manipulate it during translation.

By default, the leading and trailing whitespaces are trimmed.

You can choose to disable trimming or specify trimming for leading or trailing whitespaces.

The directive can only be used as the API request parameter.

smartling.whitespace_trim=on

Smartling will trim leading and trailing whitespaces (default)

smartling.whitespace_trim=off

Smartling will not trim leading or trailing whitespaces

smartling.whitespace_trim=leading

Smartling will trim only leading whitespaces

smartling.whitespace_trim=trailing

Smartling will trim only trailing whitespaces
