Step 1:Add Languages and Translate.
Go to Language in the menu bar and select all the languages you want to translate your Shopify store into.
After successfully adding a language, the translation will start. When the translation is complete, click the Manage button to go to the Manage Translations page.
Step 2: Edit Translation.
In the Manage Translation page, click on the store page you want to edit to go to the editing page.
After entering the editing page, the machine translation results are on the right side. You can correct the translation and then click 'Save' to save your edits. You can also quickly switch between sections using the drop-down menu at the top
If you can't find the content you want to edit, you can use the global search to locate it.
Step 3: Publish and Preview.
After editing the translation, you need to click the 'Publish' button to release that language into the live store and click Preview to preview the translated version of your store.
Access your store's website, and you can see our widget. You can check the translation status by switching the widget's language. At this point, the translation of your current store is complete.
If you wish to customize the widget further, please refer to this article.
Step 4: Auto update Translation.
If your store content is updated in the future and you want to automatically update the translations, enable the "Auto Translation" feature. Please note that only "Products" and "Collections" will be automatically sync. For other content, free plan users need to sync manually, while paid users will have an automatic sync from 2 to 3 AM daily. You can also sync immediately by clicking the sync button.
If you haven't enabled "Auto Translation," any updates to your store content will not be automatically translated. You can check the number of "Items Translated" to confirm if everything has been translated.
And you can click "Translate" to manually execute the translation process.
Please note that we currently interface with the Shopify API to obtain text for translation. If you find that the translation is not available through this method, it may be that the Shopify API does not provide it, it originates from a third-party app, or the text is in an Iframe format.
