Setting Up Translations in Mystery Box Builder

Mystery Box Builder keeps all of its on-screen text — button labels, titles, messages — in one place.
From Content & Translation you can edit that text for your store's default language and translate it into every other language your store supports.

1. Open Content & Translation

From the Mystery Box Builder dashboard, open Content & Translation in the left-hand menu. This page is where you edit the app's text and manage translations.

2. Edit the default text

The Default Text tab (selected by default) holds the app's original copy, shown here in English. Pick a section — General, Product page, Unboxing, and so on — then edit any field. The Box items title field below, for example, currently reads "Box items". Click Save when you're done.

Important: Only edit the text outside the curly braces { }. Text inside them controls dynamic values, like item counts, and must stay unchanged.

Optional: prefill the default text with ready-made Japanese copy

Mystery Box Builder can prefill the Default Text tab with ready-made Japanese copy instead of typing every field by hand.

On the Dashboard, scroll down and change the Language dropdown to 日本語. This only changes the app's own admin language, not your store's customer-facing default language.

Open Content & Translation again — every field on the Default Text tab is now filled in with Japanese copy automatically; the Box items title field, for example, now reads 景品一覧 instead of "Box items". Edit any one field slightly (for example, add a space) and click Save to keep this Japanese text.

Note: Switch the Language dropdown back to English afterwards if you don't want the app's admin menu to stay in Japanese — your saved default text won't change either way.

3. Translate into your store's other languages

Switch to the Translation tab. Pick a language from the dropdown — French is shown here. The left column is the read-only default text; type your translation into the matching field on the right, like Unbox button text. Click Save in the bar at the top to publish it.

Note: Repeat this for every language your store supports, and for the other tabs (Product page, Unboxing, Customer account, etc.) to fully translate the widget.
