Lingvit

Translate PrestaShop with native module or edge routing

Connect PrestaShop with the official Lingvit module for 1-click pairing, /fr/ path routing, and automatic cache purging, or point language subdomains at Lingvit for zero-install edge delivery.

What gets translated

  • Product and category pages
  • CMS pages and blog modules
  • Cart and search pages rendered by your store
  • Navigation, breadcrumbs and footer text
  • Meta descriptions, Open Graph tags and image alt text
  • Translated URLs and hreflang, with a localized sitemap
  • displayHeader hook switcher injection

Setup guide

  1. Install the native module

    Upload lingvit-prestashop.zip in PrestaShop Admin → Modules → Module Manager, or create a project for edge subdomain routing.

  2. Connect with 1-click pairing

    Navigate to the Lingvit module configuration page in PrestaShop Admin and enter your pairing code.

  3. Select languages and review

    Choose your target languages. The module hooks into displayHeader to inject the switcher and routes localized traffic seamlessly.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a native PrestaShop module?

Yes. The official Lingvit module is compatible with PrestaShop 1.7, 8, and 9, featuring 1-click pairing and automated Smarty cache invalidation.

Does it cover checkout?

All on-site cart and checkout steps rendered by PrestaShop are translated. Third-party hosted payment gateways (such as PayPal redirect) use their own localization.

How does cache purging work?

When translations are edited in the Lingvit dashboard, the module automatically clears matching Smarty and PrestaShop template cache tags.

Can I use language subdomains instead?

Yes. PrestaShop stores can also be translated at the edge using DNS CNAME subdomains with zero modifications to your store.
