Translate your store with pro translation drivers π§π·
After the app installation, you can translate content with one pro translation driver and get higher quality translations (instead of automatic translation where the app uses seven machine drivers).
LangShop integrates with Google and DeepL translation drivers. For this, you need to have a paid subscription and a generated API key in your account that you can enable in LangShop Settings > Translation drivers.

Edit translations manually π§π΄
You have full access to edit translations manually for each version of your store.
Steps:
- From your LangShop admin, go to Products > All Products.
You can select any other category where you want to edit translations. - Select a product from the list.
- Open
the language tab
. - Start editing product info.
- Click
Save
.
If you already have translations for products, collections, pages, you can use LangShop import and load translations with CSV or PO file format.
NOTE π·π΄
The CSV (PO) file structure differs from the Shopify's one as it only imports translations (target languages).

Order translations with TextMaster π¦π·
If you don't want to spend a lot of time translating your online store into five or more languages, the app took care of integration with the industry-leading translation agency. You can order professional translations handled by native speakers directly inside the app interface.

Customize language & currency selectors πΊπΎ
By default, LangShop adds language and currency buttons to your storefront (for all the themes). However, all the elements are visible to Admin-only
or store owners.
Before publishing the buttons with default styles, you can adapt them to your store design, change colors, position, size, font, text in the app settings, and change the status to Published
afterward.
Steps:
- From your LangShop admin, go to Settings > Selectors.
- At the left-side panel, find
Language Selectors
.
You can also customize recommendations and currency selectors too on this page. - Open the selector that you want to customize.
- Apply new changes.
- Click
Save
.

Translate third-party apps π¬π«
LangShop continues its integration with third-party apps on Shopify to be able to translate apps content. You can check the list of currently available apps in the Apps
section.
If you can't find the app in the Apps
section, you can always translate third-party apps content using dynamic translation. The logic of the dynamic translation feature lies in finding and replacing texts into different languages.
TIP π¬π§
Get to know the app better, learn more about dynamic translation.
Translate static text, images & tags π»πͺ
You will need to create a LangShop theme if you have static text which inserts directly in the theme code, sort your inventory with tags, and want to change images for every language version in your online store.
Shopify doesn't have native functionality to translate tags, images, and static text in the original theme.
Steps:
- From your LangShop admin, go to Online Store > Themes.
- Select a theme.
- Click on
Actions
>Duplicate Theme
. - In the dialog window, click
Create
to confirm the action.
Please wait for LangShop to create a LangShop theme. Make sure to publish the LangShop theme and check translations for tags, images, and static text on the storefront.
