Installation

The extension is available free of charge in the Community Store.
If you have obtained the extension in the shop for the shop domain, you can download it in the plugin administration under Settings > System > Plugins > Purchases.
The plugin is then listed under My Plugins and can be installed using the "..." button.
After the plugin has been installed, you can activate it using the button in the Status column.

Switching from the old single language extensions

The language package replaces the previous individual language extensions, which will no longer be developed further from Shopware 6.4.0.0.
In order to install the new complete language package, it is required to uninstall all individual language packages first. This is done under Extensions > My Extensions > Apps using the "..." menu next to the respective extension.
During the uninstallation process, you can select whether the previous data should be retained. This can be particularly useful if you have already made adjustments to text modules.

Settings

Languages for administration

After installing and activating the extension, the languages it contains are directly active for use in the administration.
The administration user can then select the language in his profile settings.
If a language is not to be displayed for selection in the profile settings, deactivate the language using the button on the right-hand side.

Languages for the store front

In the sales channels section, you can choose which languages can be used for the storefront.
These languages are not automatically activated when the extension is installed.
To be able to use a language, first activate it using the button on the right-hand side.
You can then select the language in the sales channel settings.

Miscellaneous

The available languages are maintained on the Crowdin platform.
As soon as a language is fully maintained there, it is made available for use in Shopware through an update of the extension.
