Working with translations

If your webshop supports multiple languages, you can manage translations in Merchant Center in a few ways. You can translate specific pages such as products, categories, or brands, or use the import tool to update translations in bulk.

Here’s a quick guide on how to find and manage translations. Some areas also includes links

Translating Products, Categories, and Brands

Each product, category, or brand has a Translate tab to manage text translations.

Go to the Translate Tab: I n the Translate tab, you’ll see the default language text on the left and fields for the selected language on the right.

Select a Language: Use the**"Translation to"** dropdown to choose your target language.** Make Edits and Save:** After editing the fields, click** Save . Translatable Fields** - Basic text fields and meta information can be translated for products, categories, and brands.

• For products, additional fields with free text (parameter type: Text) are also eligible for translation.

Bulk Translations via Import Tool

Bulk translation updates via the import tool is available for products and categories.** For Categories:**

• Prepare a file with columns:** Name**,** LanguageId**, and the text fields you wish to translate (e.g.,** Name**,** Description**,** MetaTitle**,** MetaDescription**).
• Go to ** Import Tool > New**, upload your file, choose ** Category**as the template type, map the columns, and start the import.

• Go to ** Import Tool > New**, upload your file, select ** Productas the template, choose ** Insert/Update, map the columns, and start the import.

Campaign Translations

The ability to translate campaigns varies by type:

• ** Promo Codes:** No translatable fields.

-** Cart-based Campaigns:** The campaign title is translatable. Use the language selector (flag icon) next to the title.

-** Product Price Campaigns:** The campaign title and, if a landing page is created, the title, description, and meta fields can be translated.

** Note:** A landing page can only be created if the campaign includes a specific product selection (not all products).

Menus

Due to its nature, menus can include predefined items (like category names) and custom links with text added directly in the menu. Translation methods may vary based on the item type.
