Default Theme Content Does Not Change for All Users/Regions

Topic summary

  • Issue: Changes to default theme content (e.g., footer “All rights reserved”) appear in Swedish but not when the storefront shows in English.

  • Likely cause: Content is scoped by Shopify Markets/templates. Edits made for the Swedish market aren’t applied to the English market.

  • Guidance provided: In Theme > Customize, choose the market selector to edit content per market. For Edit default theme content (under Edit code), use the Localize button to switch to the English market/language and update strings.

  • Blocker: The Localize button isn’t visible. Advice: activate the English market to enable localization editing, or ensure content isn’t removed from the default market.

  • User concerns: Whether activating the English/International market will affect Swedish-only shipping; considering deleting inactive International/EU markets since the shop ships only to Sweden.

  • Assets: Screenshots illustrate the market selector in the editor and the Localize controls for default theme content.

  • Status: Unresolved. Next step suggested is to activate the English market to expose Localize and edit English strings. Open questions about the impact of activating/deleting markets on shipping remain unanswered.

Oh, I got your mean. So you must click on Localize button in Edit default theme content, select market in English and edit the content what you want.
