Some problems with translations from the Swedish webstore

[Docklandet]

Hi!

Problem: Doll modifications/upgrades/accessories are not translated correctly.

As you might know our main store is in Swedish. We use a plugin for translation that makes an automatic translation of our webstore with the use of Google translate. This plugin translates our store (almost 1000 pages currently) from Swedish to English, Finnish, Danish and Norweigan languages. We also translate some parts ourselves manually.

Our webstore also uses another plugin for doll modifications, upgrades and accessories. We have used this plugin for over 3 years and have now sadly realised that it is impossible to translate it what so ever, this applies to both languages and currencies. Right now modifications, etc are shown in Swedish language and all prices are shown wrong in the shopping cart.

This makes the English/Finnish/Danish/Norweigan stores a bit confusing to order from, but they are still fully functioning though. When moving on from shopping cart to check out you will see the correct value/price of your doll, upgrades and accessories.

Our main markets are Sweden/Scandinavia and also our main focus. But we will of course also welcome any customer and we want to make the experience of our store as good as possible (even if you are not Swedish). We got a couple of alternatives for solving the problems with translation and doll modifications. Right now we are trying to find the best possible solution. As you might understand there are tons of different options for dolls (brands, sizes, materials, upgrades, etc) that will take alot of resource to rebuild/translate in English, Finnish, Danish and Norweigan.

If you are making an order from outside Sweden and find our translations or doll options too confusing you could write us an e-mail with what you wish to order and we will make an custom order for you right away. Don't hesitate to ask us if you have any questions!



Best regards / Docklandet team

Hello, I'm sorry to hear that. I'm Swedish, and I have an unconventional proposition: I could assist with the English translation in exchange for one doll. Does that sound interesting?

I could also help with translation in Finnish in exhance for a doll I want. I have been googling your website for a while now and so many things are just plain wrong there that it gives very sctechy vibes. Also Seems you have banner here so you must have been TDF approved now am I right ?

Hi! Actually we could need an extra hand for the Finnish translations. Its much easier for us to correct English, Norwegian and Danish. But Finnish is on another level

Yes we are proud members of TDF (approved vendor). Otherwise we would not have a forum here

UPDATE: Our store is fully translated! But there are still a few pictures here and there with Swedish language.

We have also added German to the language list. We can ship to whole Germany!

We still have not find a good solution for doll options (translation + currencies). Right now it seams the options can only be translated with automatic translation apps. We hope to find a better way in the future. But anyway, it should be pretty easy to navigate through the options just seeing the pictures of them and the correct price/currency of the payed options will be shown when checking out.

Hi! Sorry for the very slow answer. It seams like the standard setting for our account was "Users can contact me by email". We have changed it now!

[just a guy]

I still get same message "Some users couldn’t be added as they do not have permission to read private messages."

Also I think the PM should be visible in your account in order it to work. It is not visible on your profile wehn I look at it. I also see you have done some new layout for your site as well. Looks good

Sorry I missed your message. I think we got the English translations under control. We could need an extra hand though with some stuff. Guess you dont live close to Borlänge?

It would be really good if you could fix your Finnish website. Now they look like they are made by scammers and this will definitely limit buyers. There would be a big market in Finland and completely free. There isn't really a top-level doll sales in Finland. Only a few scam sellers and their websites. Make good Finnish-language pages where ALL the points are in Finnish and then market in Finnish, then the business will work. The arena is yours.
