Foreign Language Translation and Multi-Language Configuration
Easy is a word that almost everyone can understand. Thankfully, we make it easy to welcome visitors from around the world 🇫🇷 �🇯🇵 �🇦🇷 🇮🇹 with language translation and multilingual configuration.
�
There are three ways to be sure that you can communicate with shoppers, no matter what language they speak ��
�
Provide Custom Content in the Language of Your Choice
Many aspects of setting up a Volusion store require you to provide your own custom text (for example, category and product names and descriptions). You can type this content in any language of your choice.
�
Translate Page Text Articles Manually
There are many default text areas throughout your store that are in English by default. You can manually translate them using the storefront editor, or by going to Design > Page Text, clicking List All Records, and using the Search feature on the right to locate the text you want to translate. We highly recommend that you do not edit any dynamic variables (numerals between curly brackets) or HTML markup in the articles to prevent shopper confusion.
�
Replace Default Graphics With Your Own Custom Graphics
Numerous buttons and images used throughout your store contain English words. You can create replacement graphics on your own and replace the default ones using the storefront editor, or by logging in to your FTP account.

Notes
Please keep in mind that some aspects of the Volusion platform are hard-coded in English and cannot be changed. Furthermore, the use of special characters on the checkout page may make the page non-functional.�

Summary
By setting up translation ability on your store, you open yourself to a world of shoppers and make it easy for them to do business with you.
