Translate sizes for all products, not just one product

Hi,

 

I'm setting up Shopify for a brand of shoes. Our variants are colour and then size.

 

I am able to use the 'Localize' option in the translate app to provide a translation between UK, EU and US shoe sizes for a single product just fine - but I want this to be auto-applied to ALL products. They'll all have the same set of sizes per colour.

 

How do I go about doing this? I'm thinking it's probably a 'variant metafields + translate + linking these to my size variants somehow' type of answer but before I go spelunking around figuring it out I thought I'd ask here in case some kind individual can link me to a tutorial. (I have googled a lot but keep getting results for 'make a size chart', which I don't need).

 

Example on non-public dev site here: https://new-www.wildsmith.com/products/model-1 - clicking on UK / EU / US links changes the translation. Just want a way to extend that to all products.

 

Many thanks,

 

Gareth

Thank you, I'll look into doing it this way.

Hi @dartacus,

You can easily do this using Custom Contents in Langify.

 

For example go to

 

Langify -> Custom -> Product Pages

 

and create a Custom Content for one of your Sizes.

 

The translation will be reflected on all Product Pages.

 

However, your size charts further below may need a slight code adjustment to prevent them from getting translated as well.

 

You can learn more about Custom Contents here:
