Hi everyone, I hope you're all doing well.
I'm having an issue with translating the Shop page on an e-commerce website using Odoo 18. Unlike other pages like Home or Contact Us, the translation doesn't seem to work properly for the Shop page.
I’d really appreciate your help - if anyone knows how to translate this page like the others, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your help!
Hey! Yeah, this is a common issue in Odoo, especially with the Shop page since it's dynamically generated using templates and controllers, not static content like Home or Contact Us.
Here’s what you can try:
1. Enable Developer Mode
Go to Settings → Activate Developer Mode. This will allow you to access the translation features more deeply.
2. Use the Translation Feature
Navigate to the Shop page while logged in as admin. Then click the “Translate” icon (usually a globe or pencil icon) on the top bar or hover over the text you want to translate. Odoo lets you manually input translations this way.
3. Check Translatable Views
Go to Settings → Technical → User Interface → Views. Search for templates related to the Shop page (like website_sale.products). Open them, and make sure fields you want to translate are marked as translatable.
4. Update Translation Terms
Go to Settings → Translations → Translated Terms. Search for the original text (e.g., "All Products" or "Add to Cart") and make sure translations are added for your desired language.
5. Export & Import PO Files (Optional)
For more control, you can export the translation PO files, translate them offline, then re-import them. Go to Settings → Translations → Import/Export.
6. Clear Cache & Restart
After making changes, clear your website cache and reload the page. Sometimes translations don’t show up until the cache is cleared.
