LingoSlug Lite is a lightweight solution for multilingual URLs when you want localized permalinks (per-language slugs) and redirects, but you do not need a full multilingual suite.
It is designed for two common setups:
<ul>
<li>Sites where the same WordPress page (same page ID) is rendered in different languages by another language/translation solution (locale switching), and</li>
<li>Sites where each language is managed as a separate page — but you still want clean, localized URLs.</li>
</ul>
LingoSlug Lite handles URL slugs + redirects, but does not translate content.
Example:
Before: 
– (EN) <code>example.com/contact/</code> 
– (DE) <code>example.com/kontakt-page/</code>
After: 
– (EN) <code>example.com/en/contact/</code> 
– (DE) <code>example.com/de/kontakt/</code>
Slug cleanup example (same language):
Before (default WordPress slug): 
– <code>example.com/en/contact-page-2/</code>
After (configured clean slug): 
– <code>example.com/en/contact/</code>
LingoSlug Lite does not translate content and does not create language pages for you.
Problems this plugin solves:
<ul>
<li>Ugly or inconsistent URLs like <code>/sample-page/</code> or <code>/english-page-2/</code></li>
<li>Duplicate URLs / wrong-language URLs after switching languages (automatic redirects help keep URLs consistent)</li>
<li>Better search engine consistency: redirects help crawlers index the correct language URL instead of duplicates/wrong-language URLs.</li>
</ul>
Who this is for:
<ul>
<li>You want language-aware URLs (e.g. <code>/{lang}/{slug}/</code>) for selected pages.</li>
<li>You manage languages manually and just want URL hygiene (slugs + redirects).</li>
<li>Your language solution sets the WordPress locale per request and/or uses a <code>/{lang}/...</code> prefix.</li>
</ul>
Features:
1) Per-language slugs 
– Configure a page and define a slug per language code (e.g. <code>en</code>, <code>sv</code>). 
– The plugin adds rewrite rules so configured pages can have language-aware URLs. 
– Permalinks are filtered so links point to the configured slug for the current locale. 
– As a fallback, a query parameter can also be used (configurable in settings, e.g. <code>?lang=en</code>). 
– Free version note: the plugin allows the site default language + 1 additional language (max 2 total).
2) Automatic redirects 
– Helps avoid duplicate or wrong-language URLs after switching languages (redirects to the correct slug for the current locale).
3) Optional switcher 
– Enable an optional navigation switcher via shortcode <code>[lingoslug_lite_switcher]</code>. 
– Shortcode parameters: 
 – <code>page_id</code> (optional): Render the switcher for a specific page ID. If omitted, the plugin uses the currently viewed page when possible. 
– Important: The switcher requires another plugin to translate the page dynamically (same page ID) by switching the site language/locale. LingoSlug Lite does not automatically map separate translated pages to each other.
4) Slug cleanup 
– Configure clean, consistent slugs (per language) even if the default WordPress slug is “ugly”. 
– This also works within a single language (e.g. use <code>/en/contact/</code> instead of <code>/en/contact-page-2/</code>).
Privacy:
<ul>
<li>LingoSlug Lite does not collect personal data and does not send data to third-party services.</li>
</ul>
Upgrade to LingoSlug Pro for:
<ul>
<li>Unlimited languages (no free 2-language limit)</li>
<li>Force a page to a specific language URL (useful for mixed-language menus)</li>
<li>Language switcher: shortcode or automatic output (no shortcode needed)</li>
<li>Multilingual SEO extras: optional <code>hreflang</code> output to help Google show the right language version to the right visitors</li>
<li>Optional SEO tools: noindex controls and attachment page handling</li>
</ul>

Cyrlitera converts Cyrillic and Georgian URLs and file names to Latin. It works for all post types, pages, and terms. It gives you options to define your own custom characters and enable automatic redirects.
<h3>How It Works</h3>
Transliteration is the process of converting characters from one writing system to another, such as converting Cyrillic symbols to Latin. Because most web software and URLs are designed around Latin characters, using Cyrillic or other non-Latin symbols in links or file names can lead to unreadable URLs, accessibility issues, and even broken links. Transliteration ensures your URLs and file names remain clean, readable, and compatible across all platforms.
Cyrlitera automatically replaces Cyrillic and Georgian characters with Latin equivalents to create clean and readable URLs for posts, categories, taxonomies, products, and custom post types. It also fixes incorrect file names by removing unsafe characters and transliterating them during upload, helping prevent 404 errors and broken media links.
<h3>Examples</h3>
Cyrillic URL before transliteration:
<pre><code>https://example.com/%D0%BF%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%B2%D0%B5%D1%82-%D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80
</code></pre>
Same URL transliterated to Latin:
<pre><code>https://example.com/privet-mir
</code></pre>
Incorrect file names before transliteration:
<pre><code>%D0%BC%D0%BE%D0%B5_image_290.jpg
A+nice+picture.png
</code></pre>
Readable transliterated file names:
<pre><code>moe_image_290.jpg
a-nice-picture.png
</code></pre>
By using Latin-based file names and URLs, you avoid issues with encoding, broken links, and unreadable paths. This plugin performs the transliteration automatically each time a file is uploaded, ensuring your media library stays clean and consistent.
<h3>Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Automatically transliterates all new permalinks for posts, pages, categories, tags, and custom post types.</li>
<li>Automatically transliterates all new attachment file names on upload, with an option to convert them to lowercase.</li>
<li>Creates automatic redirects from old URLs to new transliterated ones to prevent broken links.</li>
<li>Supports multiple alphabets, including Russian, Belarusian, Ukrainian, Bulgarian, and Georgian.</li>
<li>Fully customizable character mapping – define your own characters and their Latin substitutions to support any language.</li>
<li>Preserves original permalinks, keeping old URLs intact so nothing is lost during conversion.</li>
<li>Optional conversion of existing slugs, allowing you to transliterate existing URLs.</li>
<li>Rollback tool that lets you restore original URLs if needed.</li>
</ul>
