Language Settings

Configure language strings for customer-facing UI elements.

Overview

Language Settings let you customize the text shown to customers in option-related UI — validation messages, out-of-stock notices, and other strings that appear on the storefront.

Storefront Only

These strings are shown to customers on your storefront. To change the admin interface language, see App Settings > Language Settings.

Language Settings panel with Option Required Message and Out of stock message fields

Option Required Message

Validation message shown when a required field is not completed.

Default: {option} is required

Variable:

  • {option} — Replaced with the actual option name

Leave empty to use the default message.

Live Preview

When a customer tries to add a product to cart without filling in required options, the message appears below each incomplete field:

Live preview showing "Personalization Text is required" and "Size Selection is required" validation messages

Out of Stock Message

Message displayed when an option variant is out of stock. Appended to the option label and the option is disabled so it can't be selected.

Default: This option is currently out of stock

Live Preview

In the example below, the Luxury Material option is out of stock — the message is appended to its label and the option is greyed out:

Material Upgrade with Luxury Material disabled and labeled "- This option is currently out of stock"

Customize for:

  • Brand voice alignment
  • Multiple languages
  • Specific messaging (e.g., "Temporarily unavailable — check back soon!")

How to Access

  1. Navigate to App Settings > Storefront Settings
  2. Open Language Settings
  3. Edit the strings you want to customize
  4. Click Save in the contextual save bar

Best Practices

  • Keep messages concise and clear
  • Use consistent tone with your brand
  • Consider multilingual stores — customize for each language
  • Keep out-of-stock messages helpful and positive
