We designed Easysize/Fit Quiz to not only look and feel like the rest of your website but also speak the same language. One way we achieve this is through our localisation and multi-language support features. This article explores our various language support options and how you can tailor Fit Quiz to your shop's needs.

Our translations are carefully crafted by native speakers and tested across hundreds of shops to ensure that everything is grammatically and contextually correct.
Language settings in the Fit Quiz Shopify app
For our Shopify users, some of the language settings are available directly in the Fit Quiz Shopify app.
Start by navigating to the "Settings" page and clicking "Text & Language" in the "Design" block.
Our Language editor consists of 3 elements:
List of languages
Editing panel, where you can update the translations of the button and select a language-related flag
Preview, that will display how the updated text will look like
Note: the Preview doesn't reflect changes to the appearance of the button, made in the "Button" customization editor. Right now, it only shows changes to the text. We're working on connecting these two editors in near future.
Here you can view and edit translations for the call-to-action and the recommendation texts.
List of languages
Start by finding a language, you'd like to edit, among the supported languages, and clicking on the pencil icon next to it.
Editing panel
You can update texts for first-time shoppers and recommendations, as well as choose a flag that will be displayed in the widget.
Text for first-time shoppers
The shopper's interaction with the Fit Quiz begins with the call-to-action button (also known as the "CTA button"), usually placed on a product page. The button opens the Fit Quiz widget, so i's crucial that the CTA button not only fits with your overall design but also stands out and attracts shoppers' attention.
Auto-recommendation / Text for recommendations
The auto-recommendation message appears on the product page, replacing the initial call-to-action (CTA) button. It informs the shopper about the recommended size, usually stating, "We recommend size XX."
This message appears in two instances:
Right after a recommendation is generated in the Fit Quiz widget
When a shopper checks other products and receives an automated size recommendation
Editing the text
You can update the button text for for first-time shoppers and the the text for recommendations simply by typing new text in the field.
You can always reset the translation to the initial default version by clicking the "Reset" link.
For the recommendation text: please keep {s}, as it will be automatically replaced by the recommended size. For example: "we recommend {s}" will become "we recommend EU 40" when the recommendation (EU 40) is made.
Choosing a flag
The flag will be displayed in the widget next to the language selector. You can choose one of the available flags or go with a default option. Flags presented in the Editing panel are different for each language.
If a flag you'd like to use is not available on the page, please reach out to us via [email protected] and we will assist further.
Preview
View the changes to the text, as you edit, directly in the "Preview" block to the right of the screen.
Note: the Preview doesn't reflect changes to the appearance of the button, made in the "Button" customization editor. Right now, it only shows changes to the text. We're working on connecting these two editors in near future.
Saving the changes
Don't forget to save the changes by clicking the "Save" button on top of the screen.
Once saved, the updated version will be used and the "Edited" label will appear next to the selected language.
Adding new languages
In addition to the languages, that are already supported, new languages can be added upon request in a matter of hours.
You just need to contact us, share the languages you want to add, and we'll provide you access to our internal translation admin. There, you can input your translations, and the changes are implemented right away.
There's no limit to the number of languages you can add, and this feature is available across all our plans and at no additional cost.
Editing existing translations
While we strive to provide accurate translations, we understand that there may be instances where adjustments are needed.
If you spot incorrect translations or want to adjust them to better fit your brand's tone and style, you can do so.
Button translations (for first-time shoppers and recommendations) can be updated directly on the Shopify app
For the translations used in the widget – please reach out to us with the corrections, and we'll adjust them in our global translation database.
Just like with adding new languages, editing existing translations is available across all our plans and at no additional cost.
Customizing phrasing and changing the "tone of voice"
To ensure a consistent tone of voice across your website, Fit Quiz allows you to customise the exact phrasing of questions and answers. Whether you're aiming for a more casual and informal tone or a more professional one, you can modify the language to align with your brand.
This feature is available in our Pro and Premium plans, and changes are implemented immediately upon request.
Automatic multi-language support
If you're a retailer with a website in multiple languages, Fit Quiz can now automatically detect the selected language on the website and adapt to that language.
This automatic multi-language support feature is available on all our plans. The language settings are sourced directly from your shop's HTML settings. Usually this appear as: html class="js" lang"en". You can view this by using developer tools in a browser and searching for the lang attribute. Here's an example of how this might look like:
Multi-language support enables all the key elements of Fit Quiz, including the call-to-action button on a product page, questions and answers in the Fit Quiz widget, and messages about the recommended size, to be displayed in the selected language.
While the process is typically automated, there may be instances where it requires a slight adjustment from our technical team. We encourage you to reach out for assistance if you need help or have any doubts.
