How can I translate product metafields values in two languages?

Shopify Discussion

Topic summary

A Shopify store owner imported ~2,000 toner and ink cartridge products with metafields in French (default language) and English. The core issue: While metafield titles appear in the ‘Translate & Adapt’ module, the actual metafield values (like toner colors, ink cartridge color names) do not show up for translation.

Attempted solutions explored:

  • Adding custom metafields to theme templates to make values visible in ‘Translate & Adapt’
  • Loading values via product.json template file
  • Using custom content-type with product.json file

The user acknowledged limited coding knowledge. Images were shared showing metafield structure and the translation interface gap.

Resolution: The issue was solved using a module called ‘Product Sync Master’ (or similar) that enables importing English feature values directly. The thread is now closed.

Hi folks!

I’ve imported about 2,000 products such Toner and Ink Cartridges. I do have 2 languages and i don’t know how to tranlate Products MetaFields values. I import has main language ‘fr.json’ which is my default store language, and also English has the second. I don’t know where to translate the values of the product.metafields. The name of filters titlename can be translate, but for exemple (toner color, ink cartridge color names) are not present into ‘Translate & Adapt’ module.

Is there a way to add custom metafields into the template of the theme i use so the multiples values can be shown into ‘Translate & Adapt’ ?

Anyone know if it’s possible? I know it’s listed into Code Source with, but i don’t have a lot of knowledge in coding.

File ‘product.json’ with custom-content type?

Does it can be loaded in the template ‘products.json’ file and show the value in the module ‘Translate & Adapt’ ?

Thanks.

Resolved, i found a module that does the job.

It’s possible with a Module ‘Product Sync Master’ to import just English features values. Please close this thread.
