Add Proxylang to Shopify

One script tag translates your whole site. No DNS changes needed.

1. Copy your script tag

Copy it from the setup wizard, or any time from the Domains page under the Setup tab.

Example only — copy your real tag from the dashboard.

2. Open your theme code

Online StoreThemesEdit code

In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store, then Themes. Click the ⋯ button on your current theme, then Edit code.

3. Open theme.liquid

Layouttheme.liquid

In the file list on the left, open theme.liquid inside the Layout folder.

4. Paste before </head> and save

Find the closing </head> tag near the top of the file. Paste the script tag on the line just above it, then click Save. The language switcher appears on your storefront right away.

5. Check that it worked

Open your live site. The language switcher appears within a few seconds. If you came from the setup wizard, it also checks your site for you.

Coming soon: a Proxylang Shopify app with server-side translation and SEO subdirectory URLs (store.com/a/proxylang/ko/).
