Gallery translation

On the Edit / Translate texts tab of the Settings page, you can edit and translate all customer-facing texts of the Customer Photo Uploader widget.

Main configuration

Enable Translations — turns on the translation feature. When it's on, you can edit the widget texts for every language active in your store. You can also manage these texts in Shopify translation apps, such as Shopify Translate & Adapt.
Language — select the language you want to edit. The primary language is selected by default.

Edit text

This block lets you edit the texts your customers see when they interact with Customer Photo Uploader galleries. It's organized into four tabs:

Gallery Widget — texts of the main gallery display.
Dropzone — texts of the file upload pop-up.

Form Errors — messages for errors in the submission form.

Gallery Widget fields

Title — the main heading above the gallery.

Subtitle — the descriptive text below the title.

Upload Button — the text on the button that starts an upload.

Each text field supports basic formatting — bold and italic — and you can choose the heading size.
