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.

Multisite Language Switcher

Do I have to add anything else?

Made my life (a lot) easier!

It does exactly what it should

I have been using this plugin in combination with MslsMenu for more than 7 years now. 

For me this is a simple, yet absolutely perfect solution for any multilingual WordPress site. Very easy to use. Easily linking cross-blog pages together without having to worry about any third-party plugin compatibility. 

Its simplicity allows website admins full control over the content of each individual blog. Perfect if not all your blogs offer the exact same content, like country-restricted services such as gift cards or house calls or payment methods.

WordPress MultiSite handles all settings per blog and with MultiSite Language Switcher you can use different date/time formatting, even different email addresses, etc. tailored to the blog's locale. 

Thank you very much for providing the perfect solution, Dennis!

The prefect, simple solution!

A simple, powerful and easy-to-use plugin that will help you to manage multilingual content in a multisite WordPress installation.
