You can enable the multi-currency display feature to allow customers to reference the prices of products in their local currency, providing a better shopping experience. If you prefer to operate the store in a single language, you can also hide the store language options.
⚠️ Before you start, please be reminded that: For merchants using theme templates that support the new page builder (i.e. Ultra Chic, Kingsman, Varm, and Philia) and would like to adjust the currency display or hide the language selector, please refer to Announcement Bar / Header Settings | Page Builder (New) and Footer Setting | SHOP Builder for further details.
This article will cover the following:
- Multiple currency display setting
- Customer-selected currency display introduction
- Hide the language selector at the storefront
- Hide specific language
- Delete the language at the storefront
1. Multiple currency display setting
Step 1
Log in to the SHOPLINE admin panel. Go to "Shop Design" > "Design" > "Advanced Settings"
Step 2:
Check "Allow Customers to select the displayed currency", then click "Save".
Now you should be able to see a new button in the top right corner of your store
2. Customer-selected currency display introduction
Rates are based on Open Exchange Rates and are updated twice daily.
Available currencies: HKD, CNY, TWD, USD, SGD, EUR, AUD, GBP, PHP, MYR, THB, AED, JPY, MMK, BND, KRW, IDR, and VND.
*Note: The store currency is set to display based on the customer's IP location by default. If the currency used in the customer's location is not supported by the store, it will display the set currency in the SHOPLINE Admin under [Settings] > [Basic Settings] > [Default currency of your shop].
Customers can now select and preview product prices in their local currency.
Remarks: This is an estimated preview only. Order payments will be calculated and charged using the currency set in Shop Settings.
3. Hide the language selector at the storefront
If you edit only part of the language version in the store, and you don't want customers to see the display of other languages, you can hide the language selector on storefront. After you toggle on the “Hide the language selector on storefront”, the language selector will be hidden.
Step 1. Toggle on the “Hide the language selector on storefront”
Go to admin “Online Store Design” >> “Advanced Settings”. Toggle on the “Hide the language selector on storefront” and click “Save” and then click “Publish” to apply the setting.
*Please note: If you don’t click the “Publish” button, the setting will not be applied to the storefront.
Step 2. Check the display on storefront
Before hiding, the customer can select which language shall be displayed using the language selector.
After hiding, the language selector will not display anymore.
4. Hide specific language
If the content for a specific language is not ready yet or you don't want to display a specific language on your storefront, you can toggle it with "Hide specific language".
Step 1. Hide specific language
Step 2. Choose the language or languages you want to hide
Choose the language or languages you want to hide and click “Save”. Finally, click “Save” and then click “Publish” to apply the setting.
*Please note: If you don’t click the “Publish” button, the setting will not be applied to the storefront.
Step 3. Check the display on storefront
After applying the setting, you can go to storefront to check the hidden language doesn’t display on storefront anymore.
5. Delete the language at the storefront
If you want to delete the added language, you can operate it on the admin now.
After deleting, all input fields for this language will be removed on admin panel.
Step 1. Go to admin “Settings”>> “Basic Settings” >> “Supported Shop Languages”
Step 2. Delete the language
Click the “X” beside the language tag to delete the language.
At the moment, the notice as the picture shown below will pop up. If you confirm to delete the language, please click “Delete”.
*Please note:
- Each store requires a minimum of two languages.
- English is the default language and can not be deleted.
- If the language for a customer's account has been deleted, the language for the store will revert to English.
- All input fields for a deleted language will be removed on admin panel but remain saved on the database. As a result, if you choose to add the language back to your store you do not need to reenter any inputs for that language.
Step 3. Click “Update” to apply the setting.
Step 4. Check the display on storefront
After applying the setting, go to storefront to check if the deleted language is no longer displayed.
