Category Languages

If you need to display your products' and therefore categories' information in other languages on the commerce website, this will be managed in the Category Languages section of the PIM Portal.

Depending on the settings you have enabled within the Kodaris platform, specific fields for each product are marked as multilingual.

When the information is entered into these multilingual fields, your customer can view specific information about a category in the selected language, which is chosen in the upper right corner of the commerce website.

In order to support the multilingual ability, you will need to provide the information about each category in that specific language. This can be done by either entering it in each category's Details screen, or it can be managed in the Category Languages section.

After navigating to the Category Languages section, you will see an embedded spreadsheet so you can add, copy/paste, drag, and delete information by individual or multiple rows. You can also use this page to manage by product using the grid or mass export or import the multilingual information for each product. The fields displayed are the ones you can either edit or are needed to match the multilingual info to the category:

  • Language - this indicates what language this category's information is written in; specific languages need to be indicated in the Languages section of the Kodaris platform in order for Language codes to be used
  • Category - the identifying field that matches all information about this specific category throughout the Kodaris Platform
  • Name - how the category will appear on the commerce website
  • Keywords - search terms to help build out SEO plus identify the category on the commerce website search functionality
  • Description - general information about the category; depending on your commerce template, the information in this field may or may not appear
