# settings.py

    # ... other apps
    "wagtail_localize",
    "wagtail_localize_dashboard",  # Add after wagtail-localize
    # ... other apps
]

# urls.py

from django.urls import path, include

urlpatterns = [
    # ... other patterns
    path("translations/", include("wagtail_localize_dashboard.urls")),
    # ... other patterns
]

3. Run Migrations

python manage.py migrate wagtail_localize_dashboard

4. Calculate Percentages

python manage.py rebuild_translation_progress

5. Access Dashboard

Navigate to /translations/ in your Wagtail admin, or click "Translations" in the admin menu.

Configuration

Customize behavior in your Django settings:

# settings.py

# Enable/disable the entire feature (default: True)
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_ENABLED = True

# Enable automatic TranslationProgress updates via signals (default: True)
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_AUTO_UPDATE = True

# Track translation progress for Pages (default: True)
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_TRACK_PAGES = True

# Show dashboard in Wagtail admin menu (default: True)
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_SHOW_IN_MENU = True

# Menu item configuration
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_MENU_LABEL = "Translations"
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_MENU_ICON = "wagtail-localize-language"
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_MENU_ORDER = 800

# Items per page in dashboard (default: 50)
WAGTAIL_LOCALIZE_DASHBOARD_ITEMS_PER_PAGE = 50

Usage

Dashboard

The dashboard shows:

• All original pages (not translations)
• Translation progress for each locale (0-100%)
• Color-coded status badges
• Quick links to edit pages

Management Commands

# Recalculate translation percentages for all pages
python manage.py rebuild_translation_progress

# Clean orphaned records and rebuild
python manage.py rebuild_translation_progress --clean-orphans

Programmatic API

from wagtail_localize_dashboard.utils import (
    get_translation_percentages,
    create_translation_progress,
    rebuild_all_progress,
)

# Get translation percentage for a specific locale
from wagtail.models import Locale
page = Page.objects.get(id=123)
locale_de = Locale.objects.get(language_code="de")
percent = get_translation_percentages(page, locale_de)

# Update progress for a page
create_translation_progress(page)

# Rebuild all progress
stats = rebuild_all_progress()
print(f"Processed {stats['pages']} pages")

How It Works

1. Database Table: The TranslationProgress model stores pre-calculated percentages
2. Signals: Listen for translation changes and update TranslationProgress table automatically
3. Dashboard: Displays TranslationProgress data for each page
4. Management Command: Rebuilds TranslationProgress objects when needed
