<p>VelaLang lets WordPress sites become multilingual without creating duplicate pages.</p>
<p>This free version is focused on one primary language and one secondary language. It keeps the primary language in the normal WordPress title and editor, then stores the secondary language as extra fields on the same page or post. Visitors see the primary language at the normal URL and the secondary language at a clean prefixed URL.</p>
<p>Example:</p>
<ul>
<li>/pricing/ shows the primary language.</li>
<li>/zh/pricing/ shows the secondary language from the same WordPress page.</li>
</ul>
<p>Core ideas:</p>
<ul>
<li>No duplicate pages.</li>
<li>One menu, two labels.</li>
<li>One Elementor Free widget, two text values.</li>
<li>No page linking.</li>

<li>A small support surface by design.</li>
