MobiDevices

MobiDevices Slug Translate creates clean English slugs for post, page, and media URLs in multilingual WordPress sites. It can translate non-ASCII text, including Cyrillic, and supported Latin-language content into English before WordPress saves the slug.
Developed by the team behind <a href="https://mobidevices.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">MobiDevices.com</a>.
To use automatic translation, install and activate the plugin, sign up for <a href="https://langbly.com/signup" rel="nofollow ugc">Langbly</a>, create or copy an API key in your Langbly account, and save the key in Settings => MobiDevices Slug Translate. If no key is saved or the translation service is unavailable, the plugin falls back to local transliteration.

MobiDevices Slug Translate


Great plugin for automatically translating slugs in WordPress. We use it on MobiDevices.com, and it helps keep URLs clean and readable for posts, pages, and media files. Simple, useful, and works well for websites with Cyrillic content.


It works!

Creates clean English slugs for posts, pages, and media file names. Requires a Langbly account and API key for automatic translation.

Since Permalinks that contain Cyrillic may cause problems on some server setups, this plugin will work around this problem by updating the automatic Post Slug generation code. In this way, posts which have a title in Cyrillic will have permlinks transliterated in Latin characters.

Cyr2Lat Slugs

Converts Cyrillic letters in post slugs to human-readable Latin phonetic equivalent.
