Hi, we have being using Transalte & Adapt app to translate all our shopify store, from english to spanish. But we think that there is something that shopify hasn’t solve yet. URL HANDLE keeps the same, only add “/es/” to it, but it goes on same product handle or even worse “collections” instead of…

Hi @juan3211 good question but no it is actually a positive impact. This has been a key consideration in the domains strategy of Markets.

Hi there, I think there are two parts to the question here: Does having two URLs that are the same, except for a subfolder (/es/), create duplicate URLs and an SEO risk? Can URLs be translated on Shopify? E.g. example.com/products/red-chair in English and example.com/productos/silla-roja in Sp…

This would be super useful for us too as we have the same problem to solve (asked so many times to Shopify support but never received any consistent answer).
