The Toggle
The link under each review swaps between the customer's words and the translation.
| Link | Effect |
|---|---|
| Show Orignal Review | Restores the customer's original title and body. |
| Show Translated Review | Swaps in the translated title and body. |
Click Show Orignal Review and the review flips to the original text:
That is the module's own spelling
The link really is labelled Show Orignal Review in the shipped en_US translation file. To correct it, override the string in your own i18n CSV — see Translating the Interface.
How it works
Both versions are rendered into the page — translated and original, each in its own container — and the toggle only changes which is visible.
Two consequences:
- Switching is instant. No page reload, no extra request.
- Both texts are in the page source whichever one is showing.
Structured data
The rendered review keeps Magento's schema.org/Review markup, with the visible text in itemprop="name" and itemprop="description".
Search engines index the translated text
Because the translation renders by default, that is what a crawler sees. Usually what you want — a German store view indexing German review text — but your rich-result snippets will show machine-translated wording.
Which store view's translation
The storefront reads the current store view's ID and looks for a row matching this product, this review, and this store. No row means no swap. See Store Views & Languages.
