Order pushes come with standard texts. This tab lets you write your own for each order status. It changes wording only: it does not turn pushes on. See Push notifications.

"When enabled, notifications will be sent in customer's selected language using custom translations below. If disabled, default system translations will be used."
Off
Turning it on shows Notification Message Translations, with one card per status. While it is off, the cards are hidden and the platform's standard texts are sent.
The cards
Each card has 2. a Title and 3. a Message. If your shop has more than one language switched on, each field has a tab per language. Otherwise it is a single box.

The two Order Modified cards fill only {order_id} and {shop_name}. The hints under the fields list fewer variables than work.
Languages
The push is sent in the language of the order. For each field:
the text you wrote in that language is used;
if that language is empty, the text in the main language is used;
if you saved the field empty, the platform's standard text is used.
Save
Select Save Settings at the bottom of the page. The new texts apply to pushes sent from then on.
What this tab does not do
It sends nothing by itself and has no test button.
It does not affect SMS, WhatsApp or e-mail wording.
It does not affect pushes to pickers, which have their own texts in Picker Settings. See Alerts to your shop.
