Why modify translations?

Modifying translations allows you to adapt your store to the target clientele you are aiming for. A hip-hop clothing store will not use the same vocabulary as a luxury car dealership.

Modifying your translations therefore allows you to adapt the wording of your store according to the connection you wish to create with your clientele: formal, casual, humorous tone, the choice is yours!

How to modify translations?

The translation modification page is presented as follows:

1. Select the type of translation you wish to modify. You have the choice between back-office translations, front-office translations, translations of installed modules, email translations and other translations (various translations related to taxes, the catalog, etc.).
2. Choose the language whose translations you wish to modify.
3. Click on the “Modify” button.

A new screen will then appear, on which you can search for the texts to be translated.

There are two ways to carry out your search:

• by typing a word or phrase in the "Search for translations" search bar, located at the top left of the page
• by exploring the categories, located in the box on the left of the page

Modify the translation you wish to change, then click "Save" to save it. To return to the translation provided by PrestaShop, click "Reset". Your new translation is online!
