Hi Bhawna, the dictionary folder is removed from settings section. Instead you can manage the dictionary items in an own section "Translation". But this section is not shown for users per default. You must add this section for your user group:
The important thing to note is that the default administrator doesn't have access to Translations so you will need a seperat user account in the backend with access to Translations
In my case, after upgrade my site from Umbraco 7.7.6 to 7.15.4, the Dictionary node disappeared and I found that it's because I didn't override the tree.config file. the new Dictionary node in tree.config has type "Umbraco.Web.Trees.DictionaryTreeController, umbraco" now instead of "umbraco.loadDictionary" like before, correct it then you will see the Dictionary node in the backoffice.
Dictionary folder not found in Umbraco 8
For some reason the dictionary folder in not present in Umbraco 8, is there any way I can bring it back or any other alternative for that?

Hi Thomas,
you can also set the permission for translation section to the administrator user group. Then it works for the default administrator, too.

Hi Sören,
I tried adding translators user group in administrator user group(one with ID= -1) and there is no way you can add or remove any user group in that.
But when I created another user, it had the option to add user group.
Sören Deger, I think they changed that i v8 so that an administrator can't grant him self more access, or it could be a bug.
At least I had to create another user, the other way is through the database that also works.
In my case, after upgrade my site from Umbraco 7.7.6 to 7.15.4, the Dictionary node disappeared and I found that it's because I didn't override the tree.config file. the new Dictionary node in tree.config has type "Umbraco.Web.Trees.DictionaryTreeController, umbraco" now instead of "umbraco.loadDictionary" like before, correct it then you will see the Dictionary node in the backoffice.
Hope it help.
Cheers
Nick
