Translating in the editor
Translating one field, translating everything, choosing languages — and what counts as “saved”.
One field or everything
Choose a foreign language at the top. Every field now has a translate button that carries the text over from the primary language. In the primary language, the globe button translates a field into every language at once; “Translate all” in the action bar translates the whole entry.
Ctrl+click (Mac: Cmd+click) on a language button takes that language out of such runs — for example when you have it translated by hand.
What gets translated
Titles, descriptions, SEO texts, handles, alt texts, product options and their values, metafields, metaobject fields, menus, theme text and system text. Which additional product metafields are included is set under Settings → Metafields — including fields owned by other apps.
Saved means confirmed
A translation counts as saved only once Shopify echoes it back. If Shopify does not accept a translation, you see it on the affected field — instead of a success message about something that never arrived.
