iPoLlama gives you full control over WordPress translations without leaving your admin panel. Browse, edit, add, and delete translation strings for any installed plugin, theme, or WordPress core. Optionally connect to a locally running Ollama instance for AI-powered automatic translation.
Key features:
<ul>
<li>Browse and edit translations for any installed plugin or theme</li>
<li>Manage WordPress core translations</li>
<li>Add, edit, and delete individual translation entries (.po/.mo files)</li>
<li>Safe Mode (recommended): Store translations in the WordPress languages directory (<code>wp-content/languages/</code>), keeping original plugin and theme files completely untouched — translations survive plugin and theme updates</li>
<li>Direct Mode: Edit translation files inside the plugin or theme directory</li>
<li>Ollama AI Integration: Connect to a locally running Ollama instance to auto-translate strings (optional, disabled by default — all communication stays on your local machine)</li>
<li>Bulk auto-translation: Translate all untranslated strings for any plugin or theme in one operation, with live progress bar</li>
<li>Supports English (en_US), Romanian (ro_RO), and Russian (ru_RU) locales</li>
<li>Clean, WordPress-native admin interface</li>
<li>Works with standard <code>.po</code> and <code>.mo</code> gettext files</li>
</ul>
Translation modes explained:
Safe Mode stores your translations inside <code>wp-content/languages/plugins/</code> and <code>wp-content/languages/themes/</code>. WordPress loads from this location first, so your translations take effect immediately and are never overwritten by plugin or theme updates.
Direct Mode saves translation files inside the plugin or theme’s own <code>languages/</code> folder. This is useful when you control the plugin and want to ship translations with it, but translations may be overwritten on updates from the plugin author.
Ollama AI Translation (optional):
If you have <a href="https://ollama.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Ollama</a> installed and running locally, iPoLlama can connect to it for automatic AI-powered translation using local LLM models (such as Llama 3, Mistral, etc.). This feature is completely optional and disabled by default. When enabled, the plugin sends translation requests only to the Ollama URL you configure (default: <code>http://localhost:11434</code>). No data is sent to any external server or third-party AI service.
<h3>External Services</h3>

<li>User-configured — you set the URL (default: <code>http://localhost:11434</code>).</li>
<li>Local only — Ollama runs on your own machine or server; no data is sent to any external server or third party.</li>

<h4>Custom Translations</h4>
Let’s say, you have translated a plugin or theme and have a mo file ready. But the plugin author does not respond to your submission offer or you cannot contact the author for whatever reasons.
In this case, you may be able to upload the file in the location that the plugin uses within the plugin’s directory but this is not ideal because when it is updated, your translation file will be gone. You have to repeat doing it.
This plugin solves this problem by allowing you to upload the mo file and lets WordPress use it.
What you need are:
<ul>
<li>mo file (the translation file with a text domain prefix)</li>
<li>text domain (usually the plugin/theme slug)</li>
</ul>
Set these in the setting page and the plugin will take care of the rest.
It’s simple and lightweight.

Custom Translation Files

Allows you to set custom translation files for a particular text domain.
