How to Translate your webshop into different languages

Important Notes on Adding Translations

  • Add the keyword or sentence you'd like to translate.
  • The "Key" field is the link between the translation and the webshop element and this must exactly match the text used in your Webshop Builder elements — capitalization and spacing must be identical.

    Tip: For longer sentences, copy the original text from the webshop builder element into Notes first, then copy it from there into the "Key" field to avoid formatting issues.

  • Always include the English version of the text under:

    • EN
    • EN-GB
    • EN-EU
  • And then put the translated version into the language you wish to translate to.
  • Press Submit.
  • Go to your website and change the language in the flag in the top right corner to see your changes.
  • Continue this process for each element in your webshop that requires translation.
