# FAQ: Can Transcy translate custom Liquid?

**Short answer: Transcy translates the visible text your theme displays, but it does not translate Liquid code itself.**

To keep your store working, Transcy deliberately **preserves Liquid** - tags like `{{ ... }}` and `{% ... %}`, variables, and logic are kept exactly as they are. It never rewrites your code. What it can translate is the **plain text** shown to shoppers.

**In practice:**

* **Static text** you've written inside a custom Liquid section (labels, headings, sentences) is treated as **theme content** and can be translated there.
* **Dynamic values** that Liquid pulls in at runtime (variables, objects, values from other apps) are protected during translation - Transcy sets them aside so the engine can't alter them, then puts them back untouched.

**Where to find it:** go to **Content translation -> Themes -> Custom content** and look for the text of your custom Liquid block. If you can't spot it in the list, use the **search box** and type a few words of the original text.

**If text from a custom Liquid block isn't translating**, it's usually one of these:

* the text is a **dynamic/variable value** rather than static text, so it is preserved by design;
* the text is rendered by **another app** through your Liquid block, in which case it falls under third-party app content rather than theme content; or
* it lives in a **theme resource you haven't translated yet** - find it under **Themes** and translate it there.

If you're not sure which case applies, contact our team with the specific block and we'll check it.
