Setup guide

  1. Open Theme Editor

    In Shopify Admin, go to Online Store → Themes → Edit code. This opens your theme's file editor.

  2. Add the Lingvit script to theme.liquid

    Find theme.liquid and paste the Lingvit script tag just before the closing </body> tag:

    {%- comment -%}
      Add to the </body> section in theme.liquid
    {%- endcomment -%}
    <script src="https://cdn.lingvit.com/widget/v1/widget.bundle.js" async></script>
  3. Connect in the Lingvit dashboard

    Create a project at app.lingvit.com, add your Shopify store URL, select target languages, and verify the first generated translations before publishing.

Frequently asked questions

Does this translate the Shopify checkout?

The theme script does not guarantee coverage inside Shopify-hosted checkout or email notifications. Configure those surfaces with Shopify's supported localization features and test the complete purchase flow on your plan.

Does it conflict with Shopify's built-in translation features?

No. Lingvit operates on the browser-rendered HTML, independently of Shopify's native translation API. Both can coexist, though you'll typically use one or the other.

Does it work with custom Shopify apps and theme sections?

Yes. Any content that renders in the browser is translated — including custom sections, third-party app widgets, and metafield content.

Can I choose which pages to translate?

Yes. The Lingvit dashboard lets you include or exclude specific URL patterns. You can translate only product pages, the entire store, or anything in between.
