Setup guide

  1. Create a Lingvit project

    Sign up at app.lingvit.com, create a project for your BigCommerce store and select your target languages.

  2. Connect with Script Manager or edge subdomains

    Use the @lingvit/bigcommerce integration to inject the widget via BigCommerce's Script Manager API, or add DNS CNAME records for edge language subdomains.

  3. Review and publish

    Translations are served live. Customize terminology in the Lingvit glossary and review translations in the dashboard.

Frequently asked questions

How does Script Manager injection work?

The Lingvit integration uses BigCommerce's Storefront Script Manager API to inject the translation widget into the page head cleanly without touching Stencil theme files.

Does it work with BigCommerce Multi-Storefront (MSF)?

Yes. Each storefront can be linked to dedicated language sets or separate Lingvit projects.

Does it cover hosted checkout?

Storefront and cart pages are translated. For BigCommerce hosted checkout, use BigCommerce's built-in multi-currency and localization settings.

Will theme updates overwrite Lingvit?

No. Because scripts are injected via Script Manager or edge DNS routing, Stencil theme updates leave the translation setup completely intact.
