WordPress, your theme and your plugins are all written in US English. The possibility to use them in your own language is one of the greatest features offered by the community of translators. Unfortunately, this comes at a high price. The translation process slows down your site. A lot. At least by 20% for a fresh install and generally much more for a site using a few plugins.
DynaMo uses a different way to handle the translations which increases the performance compared to the method used by WordPress. How much it will improve your site performance will depend on your install. But the more (translated) plugins, the more difference you will observe. In our own tests with a few popular plugins (WooCommerce, Jetpack, Yoast SEO and Elementor) we measured a page generation time decreased by 25%!
If you have object cache activated, DynaMo will automatically switch to another method to take profit of it for even more benefit.
Install and activate the plugin as usual from the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. That’s all. There are no settings.

Translate WordPress – Google Language Translator

When I use the shortcode in two places, the first is loaded but the second is not. (language switcher)

Use the short code in two different places


I never used a different Google Translator but with Google Language Translator there's really no need to. I'm very thankful to have this plugin installed not only for WordPress pages to get translated into the user's preferred language, but I also like to use it to translate text when I'm speaking with someone outside the us. After creating a test page in WordPress, I simply copy and paste the text that needs to be translated, hit the preview button and choose the language and my text instantly gets translated. 


Excellent


This is an outstanding plugin, and I've been using it for a few years now. My site is well-indexed and gets traffic to my language subdomains. However, it needs optimized better:1. The scripts.js doesn't need to be loaded if you're not offering a translation widget or shortcode on the front-end.2. The scripts.js has a toolbar.js code in it that's legacy and takes a hit from pagespeed.3. Hiding the flags div just adds a display:none div with all the flags in it.4. No hreflang tags are loaded in your header and no XML sitemap is generated to redirect for language.I've fixed all of these in my site, but it would be nice if these got corrected in the core code. I'd be glad to offer my code to assist.
