Translate your Shopify store with Weglot

Below is a step-by-step guide for creating a multilingual Shopify store with Weglot.

1) Go to your Shopify admin dashboard and click on “Apps” and “Visit Shopify App Store”.

2) Search for “Weglot”. Once you’re on the Weglot Translate app page, click on “Add app”.

2) Click “Install app”.

3) Create your Weglot account.

4) Choose your original and destination languages.

5) Well done! Your store is now multilingual.

To see it, click on the “Visit your website” button. Otherwise, click on “Go to Weglot app settings” to start customizing your Weglot setup.

6) Welcome to your Weglot configuration dashboard!

On the left sidebar, you will find everything you need to customize your Weglot setup: how to edit the language switcher button, activate the auto-switch option, and exclude specific content from translation.

To see all your content and start translating it, click on the “Edit my translations” button. If you don’t see your translations yet on the Weglot platform, please visit your store in the translated language to help Weglot detect all your content.
