Case Sensitive

The translation tool is case sensitive. You will need to use the correct capitalization to utilize your translation tool. Additionally, CSS styling can change how the capitalization displays. For example, text entered as "View All" might display as "VIEW ALL". You can check on the styling with your browser's inspect element tool.

📘

Zoey's translation tool is useful for more than translating text into other languages.

You can also use the tool to change the phrasing of any text in your default language.
For example, you can edit a default word or phrase to something that matches the intended style of your store.

Some areas of your store are auto-populated and may require updating. We have a list of the default areas that you may want to provide a custom translation:

  • Login Page
  • Checkout Registration Promo Banner
  • Checkout Payment Security Seal
  • Checkout Order Success Page
  • Create Account Page
  • Forgot Password Page
