A recently introduced Shopify multi-language bug affects product links from the collections/all page. In a secondary language, clicking a product triggers a 301 redirect (a permanent redirect) to the default-language product page instead of keeping the selected language.
Key details:
The issue was reproduced on a vanilla development store.
A Loom video was provided as the main evidence/demo of the bug.
The report had also been shared through Shopify’s Facebook support channel.
Current status:
Shopify support acknowledged the report and followed up directly.
The reporter confirmed that support had already escalated it.
Shopify’s technical team is tracking the bug in GitHub.
Outcome:
No fix or workaround was posted in the discussion.
The issue remains open/ongoing, but it has been formally logged and is under investigation.
Shopify also noted that security-related bugs can be reported through its whitehat program, though this issue was handled as a technical bug.
We have discovered a bug in the Shopify multi-language which has been introduced recently.
It has to do with the product links on the collections/all page. When you view the collections/all page in a secondary language
and click on a product, Shopify does a 301 redirect to the default language product page. I have recorded a demo of the problem on a vanilla development store:
Thanks for taking the time to share your report on this here with us and for including a clear video as you did.
It looks like you shared a similar report via our Facebook page, so a member of our team should be reaching out to you via Messenger at the moment so we can investigate this further with you.
Can you confirm if you’ve heard back from us already there with regard to a further investigation?
