How to effectively adjust product descriptions for language variations?

Topic summary

A user discovered that nearly all their product variation descriptions are still in English instead of the intended language. They included a screenshot showing the issue.

Problem: Product variations contain English text that needs translation.

Question: Is there an efficient method to update all products, or must each be manually adjusted?

Suggested Solution:

  • Export the languages CSV file (Settings > Languages > Export)
  • This file should reveal where English text appears or where fields are blank
  • Allows bulk editing rather than manual product-by-product updates

The discussion appears to be in German, with a staff member providing a technical workaround for the language variation issue.

Hi,

ich habe leider viel zu spät mitbekommen das einige (fast alle) Produkte noch englische Variationsbeschreibungen haben :disappointed_face:

Jetzt die Frage: Muss ich wirklich alle Produkte manuell anpassen oder gibt es da eine effektivere Möglichkeit?

Im Spracheditor habe ich leider nix gefunden.

Hi @Phil87 , export your languages CSV (Settings > Languages > Export) and that should show you blanks / English where you don’t want it / enable you to do bulk edits
