How to Enable Multiple Languages on Your Shopify Store for Data Migration

Note: It's crucial to configure multiple languages in your Shopify store before initiating the data migration process with Cart2Cart. This ensures that the language settings are correctly set up before any data is transferred. While Cart2Cart automates most of the migration, this initial setup is essential for proper multilingual functionality.

Steps to Add Languages in Shopify Before Data Migration

1. In your Shopify admin, navigate to Settings -> Languages and click the Add language button.

5. Use the app to translate and publish your store’s content.

Note: Due to Shopify's platform peculiarities, Cart2Cart doesn't directly migrate multiple languages to this eCommerce solution. The translation and publication of your store's content must be handled through a Shopify translation app after the data migration.
