With Lantern you can translate your quiz into any language. We also support right-to-left (RTL) languages. Additionally, you can also change the wording of default elements in the quiz for any language, and you can check our more in-depth method in the last part of this article.
There are two ways a quiz can be translated:
Out of the box we offer a growing collection of preset translations.
Currently we provide: English & Dutch.OR
You can add any language you wish yourself by creating translations.
Creating translations
To add a language, open the app dashboard in the Shopify admin. Go to the Translations tab and click Add language.
After adding a language, you can translate the individual text labels on the detail page.
Setting the quiz language
To use a specific language, you have to set it as the quiz language in the editor. Go to the "Quizzes" tab and click on the Pencil Icon to open the Quiz Builder.
Within the Quiz Builder, open the Theme settings on the bottom left of the page, and select the new language you just created. You'll immediately see the translated labels in the editor preview.
Publish the quiz to make the change visible to your customers!
You can do this by clicking on the "Publish" step on the top of the editor, and then click on either "Publish" or "Republish" depending on whether this was your first time publishing your flow.
That's it! Your Quiz is now available in the language you just added.
If you would like your Quiz to be available in multiple languages, we recommend to create multiple quizzes: one for each language.
Changing the default text in the quiz
This applies to you if you want to keep the same language you currently use for your Quiz but change some of the wording for specific text labels. For example, you might want to change the button saying “View more picks” on the Results page to say “Load more products”.
Start by opening the ‘View More Button’ dropdown in the right-hand side menu of the Results Page. Under Button Text Override, enter ‘Load more products’.
Additionally, you can change button text such as Add to Cart and Add All to Cart on the Results Page.
You can also update button text on other parts of the quiz, like the Question page, Opt-in Page, Welcome Page, and Transition Page, by navigating to Button Design in the right-hand side menu of the Quiz Builder.
