Project story

The same product, clearly presented in three languages.

This story covers two distinct stages: preparing and importing the catalog into Shopify, followed by developing the content of the live store on Shoper. Both address the same problem: a complex catalog must retain its products, variants, images and the meaning of its information when the platform or language changes.

The starting point

Prepare consistent product information for Polish, English and Czech audiences. Remove omissions and mixed languages from descriptions and tabs.

My role

I am responsible for localizing and developing product content, making SEO corrections and checking the published versions. I work on the live store in stages.

639 products

The April 2026 Shopify import, preceded by a test with a single category.

903 SKUs

Including variants with images and options, checked after import.

PL · EN · CS

The later stage on Shoper: descriptions, ingredients and directions for use in three languages.

What I did

The full scope of my work

Data structure first

I prepared the source catalog from Shoper for import into Shopify. I separated products and variants and organized SKUs, images, manufacturers, tags and categories. Preserving the relationships was essential: the correct color, image and inventory position still had to represent the same variant.

A test before the full import

I first checked one product with its category. Only after confirming the correct assignment did I run the import of the main file: 639 products, 903 SKUs and 3,469 images. I also verified the variants in the Shopify dashboard. This was a completed stage of catalog work; it does not mean that the current public website was migrated to Shopify.

Options without lost variants

The catalog contained 57 products with multiple variants. I checked repeated option combinations and, where color alone did not distinguish two SKUs, added a second option. Instead of removing a duplicate, I preserved the real difference between the items. On one of the control pages, I checked 23 variants together with their images and inventory levels.

Collections and menus derived from the catalog

I created a structure of 157 automated collections: 20 brands and 137 brand-and-category combinations. Tag-based rules assign products without each collection having to be completed manually. I checked selected product groups and their presence in the menu.

Developing the live store on Shoper

The next part of the work concerned the public store and its PL, EN and CS versions. I completed and corrected product descriptions, ingredients, directions for use, tab names and SEO fields. The translation had to preserve product information, units and variant labels; a short description did not replace the full source content.

Tabs must use the right language too

Not all information belongs in one description field. Some of it was stored in additional modules. I separately checked how it was saved and what the public product page actually displayed. I corrected missing and mixed-language content in ingredients and directions for use. Checking the dashboard was the beginning of verification, not the end.

Safe work on a live catalog

I made changes in stages, with a data backup and consistency checks before saving. After saving, I checked both the content and the public pages again. Materials for further category localization were prepared separately; I do not present those proposals here as already published content.

A link audit with an actionable result

I reviewed URLs and links, recording the source page, target and type of problem. The report distinguished a 404 response from a DNS error, a block and a redirect loop. During the final correction, I removed false positives involving email links. The result was a spreadsheet for subsequent fixes, rather than a promise that scanning alone had repaired every URL.

Project timeline
  1. Preparing the import

    Mapping the Shoper catalog to Shopify products, variants and categories.

  2. Test and full import

    Category check, import of products, SKUs and images, and variant verification.

  3. Collections and navigation

    Automated rules for brands and subcategories, plus the menu of the store being tested on Shopify.

  4. Localization on Shoper

    Development of PL, EN and CS content in the live store.

  5. Full content and tabs

    Corrections to short descriptions, ingredients, instructions and the published language.

  6. URL audit

    Checking links and preparing a list of places that required correction.

  7. Report verification

    Separating real URL errors from false positives involving email links.

What comes next

Category development and further corrections are separate stages. I describe the catalog imported into Shopify separately from the public store developed on Shoper, so the scope of completed work remains clear.
