Aurora: View text keys in your community

In Designer, you can turn on an option to view community text strings as text keys instead of the normally displayed screen text. This enables you to identify the text key value and edit it in the text properties files accessible from Dev Tools.

Note: In a future release, admins will be able to edit text keys within the Aurora user interface.

When you turn on this option, it is enabled only for the currently signed-in community admin. Other admins (unless they also turn on the option) and community members don’t see an option in the community for toggling on and off text keys.

To view text keys in the community:

  1. Open the Account menu and go to Designer > Community Text.
  2. Turn on the Toggle text keys in the community option. 
    The Currently enabled for [current username] text appears to let you know that the feature is turned on only for you while you browse the community.
  3. Go to a page in the community where you want to view the text keys.
  4. View text keys as necessary.

You can toggle text keys off and on using the Settings menu at the bottom-left corner of the page and clicking either Hide Text Keys or View Text Keys. If you click Turn off Text Key Toggle, the Toggle text keys in the community option is turned off automatically in Designer and all text keys are hidden.
