Labels

Menu: Content → Labels (admin UI may show “Labels”)
Deep link: /_Admin/content/labels?SiteId={siteGuid}

Labels centralize multilingual copy for the site (buttons, hints, fixed paragraphs), avoiding hardcoding in pages/Views. Templates and KScript use k.label(), k.t() for the current language; see k.label API. For standalone SPA using /_spa/lang/{lang} dictionaries, see SPA multilingual.

Prerequisite: enable multilingual

Configure site languages under Site settings → Basic (e.g. zh, en), path about /_Admin/system/settings?SiteId=.... Without multilingual, the edit dialog usually shows one Value field. Setup also in k.label API · Prerequisites.

How to Open

1. Enter the site admin (address bar includes SiteId).
2. Open Content → Labels in the left sidebar.

List Views

Three list modes above the table (radio group):

Mode	Description
Default list	Flat list of all labels; References column (used by Page / View / Layout, etc.)
Page list	Grouped by page, labels under each page
Category list	Group by resource type (page / view / layout, etc.), then expand per resource

Column / action	Description
Name	Label key; cannot change after create (read-only when editing); English identifiers recommended, e.g. Cancel, footer_copyright
Value	Summary for default language (full per-language values in edit dialog)
References	Default list only: reference relationships, click to view
Last modified	Update time
Edit	Opens edit dialog
Version	Version history for the label (when site log permissions allow)

Supports search (filter by name or any language value), pagination, multi-select batch delete (permission label · delete).

Difference from k.content

	Labels	Content (content folders)
Purpose	UI copy, short phrases, reusable fixed text	Structured business data (articles, product descriptions, etc.)
Admin	Content → Labels	Content → Content
API	k.label() / k.t()	k.content.{folder}.…
Model	Key + string per language	Fields defined by content types

Usage in Templates and Scripts

// Copy for current site language
k.label('Cancel')
k.t('Welcome {name}', { name: '张三' })

More parameters, k.site.labels.all(), etc.: k.label API.

“Labels” vs “Element attributes”

Content → Labels (/content/labels) manages Label multilingual copy. Content → Element attributes (/content/text) manages HTML attributes for k-config in templates; see Element attributes.
