# How can I change or translate a text (e.g. of widgets)?
The theme configuration is not multilingual in Shopware and therefore texts cannot be translated. This is why ThemeWare® uses snippets for translatable texts consequently.
{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip**: For most of the features in the theme configuration, you will find a reference to the corresponding snippets in the help texts 
. Some snippets are linked so that you can click them to go directly to the snippet editor.
{% endhint %}
## For example
Let's say you want to change the "Lorem ipsum" text in the "About us" widget. Proceed as follows:
1. Open the administration of your shop
2. Switch via the main navigation to the "**Snippet Managment**" (1) ("Settings" => "Shop" => "Snippets")
3. Select the desired language (2) (e.g. "**BASE en-GB**")
4. This is how you get to the snippets overview
5. Type a part of the text you are looking for into the search field above (3) (e.g. "**Lorem ipsum**")
6. Optional: You can select the author "TC-Innovations GmbH" as a filter on the right (4) to limit the range of snippets
7. The overview now only shows snippets that contain the text you are looking for
8. Click on the matching snippet (5) (e.g. "**twt.widget.about.content**")
9. In the block "**Translations**" (6) you can find all translations of the corresponding snippet
10. Change or translate the text
11. Confirm the change with the button "**Save**" (7)
The text has been changed. - You can apply this process to all texts in the storefront.
{% hint style="success" %}
**Tip**: Do not choose too long search terms.
{% endhint %}
{% hint style="info" %}
**Note**: If you make a change but it has no effect, please clear the Shopware cache: [Refreshing the storefront](/knowledge-base/tutorials/miscellaneous/refreshing-the-storefront.md)

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://knowledge.themeware.design/knowledge-base/frequent-questions/how-can-i-change-or-translate-a-text.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
