Good job!
Note that tuanphan's option is the only one working with the personal billing plan.

  • Brad's option requires javascript, which you can only be inserted with a Business plan.
  • tuanphan's option can be adapted so it only require css. Just add a Quote Block somewhere in the page, instead of in the Header.

Hi,

I am using Brad's solution and it doesn't seem to work : nothing changes when I reload my website. I am using the Clarkson template on Squarespace 7.1 (business plan) and I copy paste your code in the footer section (changing the language mentions for French and English) Any idea why it doesn't work?

I was so excited about this solution 😢  Thanks in advance for your precious help !

Hello, I'm new here and just recently created my SquareSpace website.

I pretty much understood the method to create a double language website, the only thing is I just can't duplicate my store... The option to duplicate is simply not available as opposed to every other page (about, portfolio, contact, ...)

My main purpose with this website is to sell prints so I really need 2 versions (french and english) of my store :/

Anyone can help ?

Thank you in advance !

Multi-language "brochure" sites are straightforward on Squarespace, but it's more complicated when it comes to Commerce as you cannot translate some functions such as the cart and checkout, and if you add the products in more than one language, your inventory will be duplicated too.

To show your store in more than one language, you'll need some paid third party services. Here are two alternative suggestions:

Weglot

Weglot is a multilingual solution that can translate your Squarespace website automatically. By connecting it to your store using DNS, it will translate all website content, including the cart and checkout. You'll need to pay for this third party service on an ongoing basis but once configured, it is simple to maintain. Your products will be available in any number of languages, depending on the plan you sign up for. Weglot is a subscription service.

The costs are based on the number of words that are translated, so it's a good idea to check the number of words on your site first, so that you know what the ongoing costs will be. They offer a word count tool to do this. If you multiply the number of words on your site by the number of languages you want to translate into, you can then check the prices to see which plan you need.

Multiple Squarespace Plans and Trunk Inventory

Although Weglot is easier, you could choose to duplicate your site and create versions in each language. For example, to show your store in two languages, you could have two Squarespace plans, each in a different language. Squarespace supports several languages, but only one language per site.

If you have two Squarespace plans showing the same products in different languages, you will need to synchronise the stock levels between them so that you cannot sell the same item twice. Trunk Inventory have a Squarespace Extension that can do this for you. Trunk is also a subscription service.

I hope this helps.

Hi, I would like to be able to translate my website in two languages. I have read the answers from this post but they all require coding which I don't want to do. 

I watched a video that squarespace posted (https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/205809778-Creating-a-multilingual-site-in-Squarespace ) it seemed to be easy to do it but it is for the 7.0 and not the 7.1 . Can someone help me please 🙂 

Thank you !

Hi all! 

I'm Parker and I work on the Customer Operations team at Squarespace. I came across this thread, and I wanted to add on the quick update that we now offer an integration with Weglot so it can be added to your site without customer code. 

Here's some more on that:

Hello! I hope to make my website multilanguage (English, Spanish, and Polish) using this CSS option on a Personal plan. Unfortunately, Weglot's free plan only supports 1 language and I will only use this website for 1 year before my wedding, so I don't want to pay for the premium plan. 

Can I do this multilanguage setup after I have already set up all of the pages in English? I saw someone mentioned it would be easier to start a new website at that point... I can definitely do the duplication part but will likely get lost after that, so would appreciate any help. 🙂

My site is: https://clarinet-flamingo-6f8c.squarespace.com/ and the password is welcome12

With Personal Plan, for 3 languages, follow this, but remove Step #6
