Multilingual Tags

Shopify’s built-in tags only ever hold your store’s default language. Show them on a product page in a multilingual store and they stay untranslated, and filter values are listed in the default language too.

This app solves that by storing tags in a translatable metafield.

  • Tags you can translate per language in Translate & Adapt
  • Filter values that follow the languages published on your store, once the metafield is added as a Search & Discovery filter
  • A product page app block that shows the tags for the language being viewed, with adjustable font size, borders and spacing
  • A one-off migration from your existing standard tags

The app’s home screen has a checklist that detects the state of each step automatically. Each page in this manual matches one item on that checklist.

  1. Create the metafield definition — the app does this for you
  2. Add the block to your product page
  3. Migrate from standard tags — for existing stores
  4. Translate the tags in Translate & Adapt
  5. Add the filter in Search & Discovery
