Multi-lingual Product Information

Our system handles all language translations, however you can also supply your own translations for use via the same single Fruugo feed.

The use of the multi-language features within the feed means that you have full control over how your product descriptive field display to different language users across our platform.

Feed Policy Multi-lingual Product Descriptive Fields - XML

To add multi-languages, it is contained within the same single feed and the additional languages are added within the same product structure. You should duplicate the parent <Description> tag within the product for each additional language with the <Language> tag within the parent <Description> changed to identify the language within that group tag. The <Language> tag should include the two digit lower case ISO code for that language.

Each tag which lays within the parent <Description> tag must be translated for each additional language, i.e. you can not only provide a translated <Title>, or provide a <Title> in French for example but with <Description> etc still in English.

The fields which lay within the parent <Description> tag are as follows: <Language>, <Title>, <Description>, <AttributeSize>, <AttributeColor>, <Attribute1>..... through to <Attribute10>.

Feed Policy Multi-lingual Product Descriptive Fields - CSV

To add multi-languages, it is contained within the same single feed and the additional languages are added as duplicate rows on the product structure. You should duplicate the SKU row for each additional language with the 'Language' field for that row being changed to identify the language being used on that row. The 'Language' field should include the two digit lower case ISO code for that language.

On each SKU, only the 'Language', 'Title', 'Description', 'AttributeSize', 'AttributeColor', 'Attribute1'... through to 'Attribute10' should changed. All other information on the SKU row should be identical.

For example, if a product had 5 SKU rows as it was available in 5 different sizes, and you wanted to supply descriptive fields in 2 languages, then you would have 10 SKU rows in the file for that product.
