# Translate your pages into other languages Reach international customers by translating your Foxify pages into any language your store supports — auto-translate everything in one click with Fox Magic, or refine the wording and tone by hand. ## When to use each method ## How to translate your pages 1. From the Foxify Dashboard, go to **Translation**. 2. Click **Manage languages** in the top-right corner. 3. Click **Add language**, select a language from the dropdown, then click **Add language** to confirm. ![](https://docs-assets.foxecom.app/foxify-app/4e6da92b-521a-4c3e-a552-bbdbb8bcc4ba.png) Don't see the language you need? Click **Store languages** in the same dialog to enable it in Shopify first. Once added, use the **Manage languages** table to track each language's Status, Auto update setting, Last updated time, and Progress. On the **Localize content** screen, browse by group and click into any item to open it for translation: * Pages & templates: Home page, Products, Collections, Pages, Blog posts, Cart, Password, 404 page, and more * Sections: Theme sections, Layout templates, Foxify Header & Footer * Other: Default Foxify theme content 1. Use the **Translating \[Language]** dropdown to confirm which language you're editing, and the type dropdown (e.g. **Home page**) to switch page type.

Each field appears as a row (grouped by section, e.g. **Section -> Frame**, **Section -> Stack**) with the source text on the left and an editable field for your translation on the right, each showing a character count.

## Auto-translate 1. In the Localize content editor, click **Auto-translate** (top right). 2. Choose target content: **All empty fields** (fills in untranslated fields only) or **All empty fields and existing translations** (also overwrites fields you've already translated). 3. **Don't translate custom code** is checked by default — uncheck it if you want custom code translated too. 4. Click **Translate \[Language]** to confirm. ![](https://docs-assets.foxecom.app/foxify-app/317456a1-46cc-4a66-b4c1-f04a4e44f156.png) Already translated some fields by hand? Auto-translate defaults to filling only empty fields, so your manual edits are safe. Choose **All empty fields and existing translations** only if you want to overwrite them. ![](https://docs-assets.foxecom.app/foxify-app/a9b05dbf-fe82-4f95-8f61-1b0e3a0c0bed.png) ## Translate Foxify's default wording **Default Foxify theme content** is the standard system text Foxify ships with — labels like Cart, Log in, Log out, and Account. It's not tied to a single page: editing it here updates that wording everywhere it appears across your Foxify pages. 1. Under **Other** on the Localize content screen, open **Default Foxify theme content**. 2. Use the language dropdown (top right) to pick the language you're editing. 3. Browse by tab and category to find the wording you want, or use **Search**. 4. Edit the field directly. Changes save per field. ## Known limitations * Up to **3,400 translated strings** per template, per language * Each individual translated value can be up to **1,000 characters**
These limits come from Shopify's theme [locale file requirements](https://shopify.dev/docs/storefronts/themes/architecture/locales#requirements-and-limitations). ## FAQs **Will Auto-translate overwrite fields I already translated by hand?**
Not by default. Auto-translate targets only empty fields unless you specifically choose **All empty fields and existing translations** in the Auto-translate dialog. **Does auto-translating cost anything?**
Yes — Auto-translate runs on Fox Magic credits, and the dialog shows how many credits the job will use before you confirm. See [All about credit](https://docs.foxecom.com/foxify-app/ai-powered-fox-magic/all-about-credit). **What's the difference between translating page content and changing the default Foxify wording?**
Page content is your own text — headlines, product copy, and so on — inside one specific page. Default Foxify theme content is the built-in system wording — edit it once, and it updates everywhere that wording appears across your Foxify pages. ## Related articles What is Fox Magic?
