Hey @ElliotM , the checkout should follow the language of the store. If it doesn't, it's almost always a 3P app causing it that doesn't use the 'routes object'. Try turning off all apps and seeing if the correct language persists, and if so turning apps on one by one until you find the culprit and speak to their developers.

Hey! I have the same problem. If I go to checkout from admin customization the page is translated correctly but from the website, it doesn't redirect to the right language. I have enabled only shopify apps: translate adapt and email.

Hi @tomyzzzz , on line 51 of main-cart-items.liquid you have a line that says:

<form action="/checkout?force_checkout=redesign" class="cart__contents critical-hidden" method="post" id="cart">

 which will have originally said:

<form action="{{ routes.cart_url }}" class="cart__contents critical-hidden" method="post" id="cart">

It's {{ routes.cart_url }} that makes sure the right locale gets passed through. Do you know how yours changed? I notice you also previously had Weglot; that could be related.

I tried changing that but it didn't work for me. It's just so weird, if you go in from customization the checkout is correctly translated but on the actual website, it isn't. I have already tried clearing my browser cache and things.

Ok we've worked out it's because of leftover Weglot code. We commented it out and you'll see the checkout now shows in Estonian.

Thank you so much 🙂
