I invite you to look at the "Title" custom field which is pre installed by default and already translated in the different languages by simply using the translation file of HikaShop. So that would be a solution.

For products I can translate the title, description, meta info etc., but no custom field info, so far I see now. In the meanwhile I will make a study of your Title config and translation possibilities. Thanks.

You won't be able to do it via the translation popup as it doesn't handle custom fields.

Do I understand this correctly? In the product config, at the custom field, I have to fill in a capital string, a 'constant' key, and then in the Joomla language override sytem I can make my translations? That is nearly impossible for 700 products with 3 custom fields. In that case I like to repeat my question from the first message in this thread: Has no one made a FaLang plugin to do this trick?

At the bottom of the popup, there is an override textarea where you can enter that: MY_TRANSLATION="My text in my language" The text of the translation key will then be displayed on the product page instead of the translation key itself.
