How does Auto translation work in Transtore?

Our Transtore app leverages AI algorithms to automatically scan and translate your storefront's content, eliminating the need for manual updates.

Where translations appear

Translations are applied directly on your storefront, so they may not appear in the app editor.

Benefits of Auto translation​

This streamlined approach offers several advantages:

  • Real-time Translation: Ensures that your translated content is always up-to-date, reflecting any changes made to your original content.
  • Time-Efficient: Saves you valuable time and effort by automating the translation process.
  • Consistent Quality: Maintains consistent translation quality across your entire store.

Important limitations​

Auto Translation is convenient for storefront visitors, but keep these limitations in mind:

  • SEO and product feeds: Auto-translated content is applied on your storefront, not saved to Shopify as a manual translation. As a result, Google Merchant Center and SEO tools that read Shopify’s saved translation data may show your default-language content. Create manual translations if you need translated content to be available to these tools.
  • Brief display delay: It may take around one second for the translation to appear on your storefront.
  • Manual translations need separate updates: If you manually edit a translation and later change the original content, the saved translation is not updated automatically. Update it separately to keep it in sync.

While our AI-powered translation offers significant benefits, it's essential to consider these limitations and plan accordingly.
