Changing your site's regional settings allows you to customize your website to better suit your business's location. By adjusting language, region, currency, and time, you ensure that your site meets the expectations of your local audience. For example, if you have a shop based in France, you can display prices in euros and set the language to French, providing a seamless experience for your customers.

Changing your site's language

Adjusting your site's language ensures that your audience can navigate and understand your content easily.

To change your site's language:

  1. Go to Language & Region in your site's dashboard.
  2. Under Site Language, click the drop-down to select the default language people see on your site, emails and notifications.
    Note: If you have a multilingual site, click Go to Wix Multilingual to manage site languages.

To change your regional format:

  1. Go to Language & Region in your site's dashboard.

To change your currency:

  1. Go to Language & Region in your site's dashboard.
  2. Under Currency, click the drop-down to select your preferred currency.

To change your time zone:

  1. Go to Language & Region in your site's dashboard.
  2. Under Time Zone, click the drop-down to select your site's default time zone.
