Translate & Adapt by Shopify is an app focused on the Shopify Markets functionality. So, if you're wondering how to get our OrderlyEmail templates integrated with this app to adapt your email notifications language for every Market, this guide will help you get everything set up. It does take some setting up, but once done will automate the process completely.

Note: Language options in email notifications are automatically enabled when additional languages are added in Settings > Languages in your store admin. You must have Translate & Adapt or a similar app installed, to manage each language option field.

Step 1

Customize all the emails in OrderlyEmails for the store’s main language, and subscribe to the theme if you haven't done it yet.

Step 2

Follow the “Export to Shopify” instructions to copy/paste the emails in the Shopify admin.

Step 3

Go back to our OrderlyEmails app > Email themes > 'Duplicate', making sure to rename the theme, including the language you are translating it to (to make it easier to identify later).

Step 4

Customize the duplicate theme in the editor to translate it into the needed language.

Step 5

Click “Export to Shopify” and then copy/paste the email code into the Notifications section of your Translate & Adapt app for the matching email, language, and all supported Markets.

You also access the translation code settings by clicking the Localize button in the Shopify notifications:

Step 6

Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 for the additional languages you may want to translate the emails into.

Step 7

Once everything is set up, you may want to preview the templates to confirm it's all configured correctly. You can do this on the Shopify Notifications section; just click on the email notification and language you wish to preview.
