Translate Custom Variables Magento 2
====================================

[](#translate-custom-variables-magento-2)

This is the official Translate Custom Variables Magento 2 extension. With this module it is possible to use custom variables in translatable strings in CMS elements.

How does it work?
-----------------

[](#how-does-it-work)

1. For example, you have a custom variable with code free\_shipping\_cost, and you want to place it in a translatable string in a CMS Block or CMS Page
2. To do this, the prefix "customVar\_" must be placed before the custom variable code in the translation string
3. As: {{trans "Free Shipping from %free\_shipping" free\_shipping=customVar\_free\_shipping\_cost}}

The %free\_shipping will be replaced by the value from the custom variable free\_shipping\_cost.
