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.

Manage translations for WordPress core, plugins, and themes directly from your admin panel. Optional Ollama AI auto-translation support.

Alex Kirk

This plugin ensures that any text coming from a translation file (<code>.po</code> or <code>.mo</code>) is run through an escaping function before it is output to the user.
Escaping refers to the modification of the text so that special control characters do not have an effect (for example <code><</code> in HTML).
Example: If an original text does not contain HTML, then a translated text should not be allowed to contain HTML either. Thus, an HTML link introduced by a translator should have no effect because this was not intended by the developer.
This plugin is in the proof-of-concept stage, it was created to test if the escaping of translated text can be handled in a general way, whether it severely affects the performance of a site, and if it breaks things.
For text without HTML, the text is sent through <code>esc_html()</code>, for text containing HTML tags, it is sent through <code>wp_kses()</code> which is provided with a list of allowed HTML tags and attributes, derived from the original string.
Thus this plugin tries to show a generic way of how to make sure that translated text is escaped. This is something that can eventually be ported to core.

Secure Gettext

Escapes translated text before it gets output. This adds an extra security layer around translated text.
