What am I missing here?")* Hi, With Falang, the translations are stored in the falang_content table in the database. HikaShop bases itself on that information to store and load the translations of the elements in the backend, either in that table, or in the language override file of Joomla. On the frontend, Falang uses a plugin to dynamically load the translations. So, if you go in your PHPMyAdmin and rename the falang_content table, it will force HikaShop to use the language override file of Joomla to load and store the translations, and it will work on the frontend. The downside, is that you'll have to redo your translations as there is no mechanism to migrate the translation data from Falang to the Joomla language override file.

Would it be possible to use falang only for the hikashop pages? And rename the falang_content table > what should be the name of the table?

Falang uses a system plugin which hooks up to the MySQL queries driver mechanism of Joomla. With this, it reads all the MySQL queries and when something matches with a content element it supports, it will run another query to look for the translations and dynamically replace the text on the frontend. So, in the Falang backend interface, if you go to the "Content elements" menu of Falang, you can see all the content elements it supports. There, you can select the ones you don't want Falang to take into account and delete them. The less content elements you have in Falang, the less queries it will have to process. If you only need it for a few content elements in HikaShop, you can delete all the other ones and it will drastically help reduce the toll of using Falang on your pages speed. 2. You can rename it to whatever you want. The goal is for HikaShop to not find it anymore. So for example falang_content_backup Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzMyLWNvbnRlbnQtY3JlYXRpb24vOTA5NzE1LXRyYW5zbGF0aW9uLW5vdC1zaG93aW5nP3RtcGw9bWFya2Rvd24=) or [Create an account](/register) to join the conversation.
