Pre-Made Language Packs
In a previous guide, we described how you could edit your store's text and system messages to reflect your business' language.
If you plan to translate your store into either Spanish or Portuguese, please feel free to use the language packs below to help you save time in this endeavor.
To use these:
Download either the "Language-Pack_Spanish" or "Language-Pack_Portuguese" zip files found at the bottom of this article.
Once downloaded, unzip the file to your desktop.
The zip files will contain a language pack for your store language as well as a separate file for your store's system messages. Store Language will control the labels for the various sections of your store, while System Messages will control the various error messages and prompts created by the store for your visitors.
Once you've unzipped the appropriate language file, proceed with the next steps.

Go to Settings > Design > Themes & Styles.

Next, look to the top right of the page and click on the Export / Import button.
Click on the + icon next to the Store Language Import section.

How can I revert back to the default language?
If - for whatever reason - you would like to revert to the default English language version of the cart, simply download the sample files located in each import section described above. The sample files contain the store's syntax in the default English.
