How to edit product texts in other languages

If you support multiple languages, update product texts directly on the product page or in bulk using the import tool.

Key features

  • Edit default-language texts directly on the product view
  • Edit other languages on the Translate tab
  • Update texts in bulk with the import tool

Editing on the product page

Default language: edit the default-language text using the text fields on the main product view. These fields are usually named Text1, Text2, Text3, but can have different names in your system.

Other languages: go to the Translate tab. The default-language texts appear on the left, and the translation fields for the selected language on the right.

  1. Click the Translation to dropdown and select a language.
  2. After editing, click Save.

Editing via the import tool

Prepare a file with the required columns: Name, Language, and the text fields (Text1, Text2, Text3). Then:

  1. Go to the Import Tool and click New.
  2. Upload your file.
  3. Choose Product as the template type and select Insert/Update for the import mode.
  4. Map the columns you want to update.
  5. Start the import.

Make a test import on one product to verify which text fields match the columns Text1, Text2, Text3 in the product import for you.

Be careful not to map empty fields, as this may delete existing texts.
