To display your OpenCart store in more than one language, you’ll need to install and configure a language pack. Here’s how:
- Step 1: Download a language pack. Go to the OpenCart Extension Directory and search for the language you need. Make sure the version you download is compatible with your OpenCart version.
- Step 2: Upload the language files. Extract the downloaded archive, then upload the admin and catalog folders from the package to your OpenCart store’s root folder via FTP.
- Step 3: Add the language in your admin panel. Log in to your OpenCart Admin Panel and go to System > Localisation > Languages, then click Add New. Fill in the language details, such as name, ISO code, and locale, referring to the README file included in the language pack for the exact values.
- Step 4: Save your changes. Once saved, your new language will be available.
- (Optional) Set your default language. If you want the new language to be the primary one shown to visitors, go to System > Settings > Edit, then select it under the Local tab.
Once complete, your storefront will display a language selector, letting customers choose their preferred language.
