User-submitted translation - perhaps two instances of Scripto?

[AdamArcher]

Our collections contain a lot of manuscripts and books - which we rely on users to transcribe. We use Scripto for this and it works wonderfully.

The problem is, a lot of our collection is not English, and it would be wonderful to allow users to submit translations as well as transcriptions.

Is there an easy way to do this? Or is somehow hacking a second Scripto into the system the only way to go?

Thanks!

There’s no way to do this out-of-the-box. I’m not sure if anyone has had success in hacking a second Scripto into the system, but it doesn’t seem easy. Perhaps instead you could use the Discussion section to collect translations instead of discussions.
