Enables theme developers using WPML to create type-slug.php templates in the default language.
Currently, with WPML, if you want to create a custom template for a page/category/post, you need to create such template in each language (e.g., page-english-slug.php, page-french-slug.php). With this plugin, you can create the template only for the default language (e.g., page-english-slug.php) and it will be used for all other languages.
Version 1.0.0 supports translated page, category and tag slugs.

Bogo is a straight-forward multilingual plugin for WordPress.
The core of WordPress itself has the built-in localization capability so you can use the dashboard and theme in one language other than English. Bogo expands this capability to let you easily build a multilingual blog on a single WordPress install.
Here are some technical details for those interested. Bogo plugin assigns <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/multilingual-wordpress/#different-types-of-multilingual-plugins" rel="ugc">one language per post</a>. It plays nice with WordPress – Bogo does not create any additional custom table on your database, unlike some other plugins in this category. This design makes Bogo a solid, reliable and conflict-free multilingual plugin.
<h4>Getting started with Bogo</h4>
<ol>
<li>
Install language packs
First, install language packs for languages you use on the site. You can view and install language packs in the Language Packs screen (Languages > Language Packs).
</li>
<li>
Select your language for admin screen
Bogo lets each logged-in user select a language for their admin screen UI. Select a language from the menu on the <a href="https://wordpress.org/support/article/administration-screens/#toolbar-keeping-it-all-together" rel="ugc">Toolbar</a>, or from the menu in the Profile screen (Users > Your Profile) if the Toolbar is invisible.
</li>
<li>
Translate your posts and pages
To create a translation post, go to the editor screen for the original post and find the Language box. Bogo does only make a copy of the post; translating the copied post is your task.
</li>
<li>
Add language switcher widgets
It would be useful for site visitors if you have a language switcher on your site. Bogo provides the Language Switcher widget in the Widgets screen (Appearance > Widgets).
You can also use the <code>[bogo]</code> shortcode to put a language switcher inside a post content. If you want to use this shortcode in your theme’s template files, embed the following code into the template:
<pre><code><?php echo do_shortcode( '[bogo]' ); ?>
</code></pre>
</li>
</ol>
<h4>Privacy notices</h4>
With the default configuration, this plugin, in itself, does not:
<ul>
<li>track users by stealth;</li>
<li>write any user personal data to the database;</li>
<li>send any data to external servers;</li>
<li>use cookies.</li>
</ul>

Bogo


There are some functionalities needed that should be in the core like change the post language, or linking to another post.
