Remove content

If you find source content that is wrong or no longer needed in your localization, you can remove this content by either clearing all entries collected using Automatic Text Capture (ATC) or manually removing source content. When you remove source content, you also remove any associated translations.

Clear unmodified auto-captured entries

You might want to remove some auto-captured entries if the ATC tool collects strings that shouldn't be translated, such as usernames, user-generated names, or chat strings. This option only clears auto-captured entries that you haven't manually edited.

To clear unmodified auto-captured entries:

1. In your game's localization page, click Settings.

2. Select which time period you would like to clear strings from in the dropdown list. This clears all entries that were auto-captured from the specified time period.

3. Click the Clear button.

   

Manually remove source content

You can also remove entries manually. This is recommended if you have specific entries you want to remove or if the entries you want to remove were manually modified in any way, such as content that is added manually or ATC entries that have been manually edited.

To remove source content through the localization table on Creator Dashboard:

1. In your game's localization page, click the Translate button on the top right.

2. Select Game Strings.

3. Click the entry you would like to remove in the Strings column.

4. Click the trash can icon to the right of the 'Text to translate' section.

5. Click the Delete button in the confirmation dialog.

   

To remove source content through a .csv upload:

1. In Studio, open Localization Tools from the Window ⟩ Localization menu.
2. In the Cloud Localization Table section, select Download to save the .csv.
3. Open the .csv in your preferred spreadsheet editor.
4. Delete the entire row for any entries you would like to remove, and save.
5. In Studio, in the Cloud Localization Table section, select Update and upload the new .csv file.
6. Click Confirm on the Confirm Upload prompt to save the new entry to the cloud localization table.
