The Multi-Lingual Configuration page (Configuration Menu > Discovery > Display Configuration > Multi-Lingual Configuration) configures the rules needed to mark Subject, Creator, and Contributor fields with a language-specific identifier so that the Services page can display only fields associated with the user's preferred language.

For records that contain multilingual content, you can display the supported fields based on the user's preferred language. Previously, the system displayed the supported fields for all languages in the record's details. For example, if the following Subject fields are defined in the catalog:

• If multi-lingual fields are not configured, the system will display all Subjects, regardless of the UI's language setting:
