Q: Features.
I would like to inquire about the bilingual capabilities of Brilliant Directories, particularly in the context of Canada, where both French and English hold official status. Is there a built-in feature that supports content in both languages?
Additionally, I am curious about the verification options available within the platform. Can users display a "verified" badge on their profiles, and if so, is it possible to change this status to "verification in process" at a later stage?
Furthermore, I am interested in the potential for a traffic light signaling system to indicate a user's availability for new patients. Would it be feasible to implement a system where red signifies that a provider is not accepting patients, yellow indicates a moderate capacity, and green shows that they are open to new patients?

🇨🇦 Bilingual (English / French) Support
Yes, BD supports bilingual and multilingual sites. You can enable the built-in Google Translate option to allow visitors to switch between English and French, which works well for Canadian audiences. If you want more control, third-party tools like Elfsight or GTranslate.io can also be used to manage and refine multilingual content.
✅ Profile Verification Badges
Yes, profiles can display a “verified” badge. Verification status is managed by the site admin, and you can update the label over time (for example, verified, pending verification, or in review) to match your process.
🚦 Availability / Status Indicators
This can be achieved using a custom field (for example: Open, Limited, Not Accepting). With a small UI customization, that field can be visually represented as a traffic-light style indicator (green / yellow / red) on profiles or in results. It’s not a one-click feature, but it’s a practical and commonly implemented approach.
Overall, these use cases are well aligned with how BD is designed to work, using built-in features plus light configuration where needed.
