From the PIM interface, you have several options for translating the content of localised attributes.
Enter the details manually directly on the product page.
Go to the relevant product page and click on the current language.
Select the language into which you wish to translate the content of your attribute (for our example, we are selecting Français (FR)).
Go to the attribute you need to fill in.
Enter the translated text and click ‘Save’
Translate using the translation feature on the attribute.
Go to the relevant product page, navigate to the attribute you wish to translate, and click the ‘Manage translation’ button at the end of the input field.
Enter a manual translation in the input fields for the other data languages, use the automatic translation (engine: Google Translate) by clicking the button at the end of the input field, or use the translation for empty fields (engine: Google Translate) by clicking the button at the top of the window.
Once the data has been translated, click:
‘Validate’ to temporarily save the translations and close the window, or ‘Validate & Next’ to temporarily save the translations and move on to the next localised attribute.
Once you have entered all the translations, return to the product page and click “Save” to permanently save your changes.
Saving on the product page is crucial. Without this, the translations will not be retained.
The translation feature for empty fields only fills in fields that contain no data. Fields that are already filled in remain unchanged.
Translate using the translation feature on the product page.
Go to the relevant product page and click on the ‘More actions’ button in the top right-hand corner, then click on ‘Translate attributes’.
A window (Translation Mode) will open. You will first need to select the source language , then the target language.
You can then either translate attributes one by one using the ‘Translate’ button that appears when you click on the relevant field,
or translate all attributes that do not yet have a translation in the target language by clicking on ‘Translate empty fields’.
Once you have finished translating, don’t forget to click the ‘Save’ button in the top right-hand corner of the window. You can also use AI translation via the ‘More actions’ menu on the product page and via the advanced search.
NB: You can use this tool to translate the content of multiple attributes belonging to the same product or to different products in bulk. To find out how to do this, please see this article.
Textmaster is also a great solution to translate your content.
