How to translate your Shopify store?

The current Ciwi translation workflow is built around four product areas: Language, Translate v4, Manage Translation, and Publish.

Step 1: Add the target language

Open the Language page and add the market language you want to support. This defines which targets Ciwi can use in later translation jobs.

Step 2: Prepare quality controls

Before a large run, add glossary entries for your most important brand and product terms. This is the easiest way to reduce repeated wording issues across pages and products.

Step 3: Create jobs in Translate v4

Open Translate v4 and choose:

• one or more target languages
• the Shopify content modules you want to translate
• the AI model
• whether to overwrite existing translations
• whether to include custom Liquid content when needed

The app shows an estimate before you commit. If credits are not enough, you can buy more and continue.

Step 4: Monitor job progress

Each selected target language becomes its own job. That makes it easier to track progress, retry one language, or review results market by market.

Step 5: Review in Manage Translation

After the job completes, use Manage Translation to inspect modules such as products, collections, pages, navigation, theme content, metafields, and more. This is the right place to polish important copy before storefront release.

Step 6: Publish the language

Go back to the Language page and publish the target language when you are ready. Then preview the storefront and check the pages that matter most for conversion.
