# FAQ: How to resolve "missing translation" trouble?

*Having trouble with "missing translation" messages appearing on your store? This happens when you change a target language to become your default language, which can cause content to disappear and show these error messages instead.*

## I. Understanding the Problem

When you see **"missing translation"** messages on your storefront, it typically means you've switched a language that was previously set as a **target language** to become your **default language**. This change removes the translated content, leaving gaps that display as "missing translation" errors.


## II. Quick Fix Solution

Here's how to resolve this issue:

→ Go to **Online Store** in your Shopify admin  
→ Click **Themes**  
→ Find your current theme and click the menu (three dots)  
→ Select **Edit default theme content**

→ Look for the **Content incomplete** warning at the top  
→ Click **"filter this page"** to show missing content  
→ Add the missing content wherever you see gaps  
→ Save your changes
