# How does archiving affect translations?

Translations can be viewed and edited only for content/widgets in the Draft, Ready, or Production stages, and not for content in the Archived section.

**Case 1:** You archived content but there is still a version of that content in Draft, Ready, or Production.

> Translations continue to be available for the content in Draft, Ready, or Production.

**Case 2:** Your Archived content is the only version on the Dashboard.

> Translations are not available for this content, and the it is removed from the list of content in your translations.

When the Archived content is [restored](/desktop/docs/restore-copy-or-delete-archived-content-or-widgets), its translations before archival are restored.
