How to Translate SureCart: A Step-by-Step Guide

SureCart is a powerful e-commerce platform that offers numerous out-of-the-box translations.

But you still may want to change a text string here or there.

Or maybe SureCart does not yet offer a translation for your language.

In such cases, you can rely on the Loco Translate plugin, a popular and free tool for fully translating SureCart.

Note: Some text strings are static in forms and pages that SureCart generates. For these, you will need to edit the form, block, or page.

This document will walk you through the process of using Loco Translate to customize the translation strings in SureCart.
