How can I translate default filter values in the Dawn theme?

Topic summary

Main issue: Default filter labels “Availability” and “Price” in the Dawn theme weren’t translating, and appeared greyed out.

Key guidance: Use Translate & Adapt, select the Filters resource via the homepage or editor’s resource selector to find these labels.

Root cause: The translation edits were being made under a market-specific adaptation (“International”) for Norwegian, not under the base Norwegian language translations. Market adaptation is for regional variants of the same language (e.g., Colour vs. Color), not for standard Norwegian.

Action taken: Delete the market-specific adaptation, save, then add translations under “Translating Norwegian (Bokmål).”

Outcome: After removing the duplicate market adaptation and translating in the correct language section, the labels were successfully translated.

Status: Resolved. Screenshots were used to confirm the misconfiguration and the correct location in the UI.

Hi,

I use the Dawn theme and the translation have worked flawless except to places,
Its the default values on the filter selection, “Availability” and “Price”. I can’t fint where to translate them, ive searched both the code and change default theme content,

Anyone know ? :slightly_smiling_face:

Hi @maanst , go from either the Translate & Adapt homepage or the resource selector menu in the editor select ‘Filters’ and you’d see them there:

Thanks, now i see why they are stuck at not translated. They are however greyed out, so i can’t edit them.

Could you share a screenshot? Thanks

I have changed the international box, but that didnt affect the website.

The screenshot you’re showing me is adapting Norwegian translations to be different for your International markets vs other markets. I imagine this isn’t what you want to to do as Norwegian is mainly used in Norway. Adapting content by market is to enable you to have two versions of the same language, e.g. Colour in the UK and Color in the USA. Delete this, save, and add translations under ‘Translating Norwegian (Bokmål)’

That made sense when you explained it, managed to translate the correct language when i removed the dupliacted :slightly_smiling_face:
