<h3>🔥 One free target language</h3>
The first language translation is completely free for non-commercial websites. If your website is of a commercial nature (e-commerce, advertising, etc.), a commercial licence is available.
<h3>🧮 No word limits!</h3>
Don’t count the words on your website to decide which plan to choose, wpLingua doesn’t limit them! Simply choose the number of target languages and translate without counting!
<h3>🚀 Optimized for international search engines (SEO)</h3>
When you use wpLingua on your website, all elements of your content – even those that are invisible – are translated.
wpLingua is “SEO-Friendly” because it takes care of translating:
✓ Meta Title tags 
✓ Meta Description tags 
✓ Hreflang alternative links 
✓ Meta tags for social networks (Twitter X, OpenGraph Facebook…) 
✓ ALT attributes of images 
✓ And more.
By optimizing indexing, we ensure that your translated pages are not only understood by your audience, but are also easily found by search engines.
<h3>🪄 Streamlined Setup Process</h3>
Forget about complex plugins to set up, wpLingua enhances the user experience of the multilingual world.
All you need to do to get started is request your machine translation API key, then play with the language switcher appearance options!
Let wpLingua take care of the technical aspects while you concentrate on creating compelling content for your international audience. Our commitment is to make multilingual capabilities accessible and easy to use for all WordPress users.
<h3>✍️ Tailor-made translations at your fingertips with our On-Page Editor</h3>
Although wpLingua gives you the convenience of machine translations, we understand the nuances of each language.
wpLingua allows you to fine-tune each translation manually if you need to.
Experience the fusion of automation and the personal touch with our visual on-page editor.
<h3>🔗 Editable URL translation</h3>
The plugin automatically discovers URLs on your website and lets you translate them. URLs are split into slugs (parts of the URL), making them easy to edit. This feature boosts SEO performance!
<h3>🎨 Fully customizable language switcher</h3>
wpLingua’s language switcher is fully customizable. You can display the language selector in four ways:
✓ Automatic insertion via predefined positions. 
✓ Use a shortcode to display it wherever you like. 
✓ Insertion in the navigation menu using the design defined by the theme. 
✓ Insertion in the navigation menu from the site editor using the Gutenberg block named Language Switcher
You can also control the appearance of the language switcher using:
✓ Switcher styles (dropdown, inline, block…) 
✓ Predefined themes (light, dark, chameleon, etc.) 
✓ Configurable language names (translated name, original name, language ID, etc.) 
✓ Flag shapes (round, rectangle, wavy) 
✓ Language-based flag choices or import your own flag images 
✓ Adding custom CSS in a dedicated insert
With all these customization options, there’s no way your website’s language switcher will look like any other!
<h3>📖 Translation rules by dictionary</h3>
The dictionary allows you to define translation rules that apply when generating machine translations. You can specify words or sets of words that should never be translated, or define how they should be translated for each language.
<h3>🖼️ Translation of links and media</h3>
This feature lets you apply translation rules to links and media, offering even greater customization. You can display different images or modify link URLs according to the current language. These rules apply to the following elements: Link URLs, image URLs, iframe URLs and URLs in intercepted JSONs.
<h3>🧭 Intuitive possibilities to exclude certain translations</h3>
Navigate the complexities of website translation with wpLingua’s intelligent exclusion feature.
Want to preserve specific sections of a page in its original language? Our system seamlessly allows you to pinpoint and exclude translations using CSS selectors.
If entire pages need to remain untouched, effortlessly exclude them by their URL. All of this can be managed with ease through our user-friendly exclusions manager.
With wpLingua, you’re always in command of what gets translated and what doesn’t, ensuring your website’s essence remains intact.

We invite you to consult our <a href="https://wplingua.com/terms-and-conditions/" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms & Conditions page</a> for more information.

Ray Enterprise Translation offers convenient cloud-based localization and translation for WordPress by simplifying the process of creating and maintaining your multilingual website. Features include machine, professional, and community translation solutions that ease the manual burden of launching in new markets while improving language consistency, cutting costs, and enabling you to deliver your brand to consumers abroad in the quickest and most effective way possible.
Make your WordPress website content truly multilingual. The power to translate is now inside WordPress!
<h4>Customizable Translation Workflows</h4>
WordPress administrators use Translation Profiles to categorize content by its relative value. You associate each content type with a Translation Profile, and the plugin carries out the appropriate workflow:
<ul>
<li>
Professional – The plugin enables you to use your own translation agency or tap into Ray Enterprise’s marketplace of more than 5,000+ in-country translators. Don’t have time to manage your own translation project? Let Ray Enterprise take care of it for you. The plugin fully automates file transfer between WordPress and Ray Enterprise. You’ll have full visibility into the translation process every step of the way. And once the translations are completed, they’ll automatically download and publish to your website according to the preferences you’ve set.
</li>
<li>
Community – If you’re looking to save money by avoiding professional translation, you can take the do-it-yourself approach and have your bilingual employees, partners and/or users perform translations right within WordPress. The plugin integrates with and provides use of the Ray Enterprise Workbench, a professional-grade text editor used for translating, reviewing, and post-editing multilingual content.
</li>
<li>
Free Automatic – Machine translation is an excellent option if you’re on a tight budget, looking for near-instant results, and are okay with less-than-perfect quality. The plugin allows you to automatically translate your site by providing the commercial API for Microsoft Translator. You can upload up to 20,000 processed words in the Ray Enterprise system for free (we calculate processed words by multiplying the source word count by the number of requested translations). Machine translations can be post-edited at any time using the Ray Enterprise Workbench.
</li>
</ul>
<h4>Cloud-Based Translation Management System</h4>
Need access to an enterprise level Translation Management System designed to work directly with WordPress and other content management systems, allowing you complete transparent access with all your translation projects? The cloud-based Ray Enterprise Translation Management Systems helps your business access new markets and customers. Contact sales@lingotek.com for more information and pricing of these features.
<h4>Benefits</h4>
<ul>
<li>Cost Savings</li>
<li>Faster Translation Times</li>
<li>Higher Quality</li>
<li>Real-time Monitoring</li>
<li>Eliminate the Copy/Paste Method of Translating</li>
<li>Increased Involvement and Loyalty</li>
<li>In-context Review</li>
</ul>
<h4>Features</h4>
Ray Enterprise works in conjuction with the <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/polylang/" rel="ugc">Polylang</a> plugin (the plumbing to make WordPress multilingual ready) allowing you to create a bilingual or multilingual WordPress site. You write posts, pages, and create categories and post tags as usual, and then define the language for each of them.
<ul>
<li>You can use as many languages as you want. RTL language scripts are supported. WordPress languages packs are automatically downloaded and updated.</li>
<li>You can translate posts, pages, media, categories, post tags, menus, widgets…</li>
<li>Custom post types, custom taxonomies, sticky posts and post formats, RSS feeds and all default WordPress widgets are supported.</li>
<li>The language is either set by the content or by the language code in the url, or you can use one different subdomain or domain per language.</li>
<li>Categories, post tags, and some other metas are automatically copied when adding a new post or page translation.</li>
<li>A customizable language switcher is provided as a widget or in the nav menu.</li>
<li>The admin interface is of course multilingual too and each user can set the WordPress admin language in its profile.</li>
<li>We now support localization of pages created with Elementor</li>
<li>We maintain the privacy of free automatic users by deleting all completed content from our TMS older than one month and active content older than two months. To ensure this does not affect your translated content, please download your translation soon after they are complete, or set your download settings to automatic. Enterprise customers should coordinate with client success about their community’s archive and deletion timeframes.</li>
</ul>

Ray Enterprise Translation

it seems like the plugin is not maintained anymore, which is very unfortunate.
Currently on activation I saw many things not working as expected.

The first problem I encountered was that I wasn't able to connect my Lingotek account while the plugin Rank Math SEO Plugin was active. I checked the logs to see whats happening under the hood (nothing specific to RM but some warnings due to ternary operators which will cause fatal errors in PHP 8).

The UI is not very intuitive and feels like not been touched for years.
I am also not that happy with the machine translation (it's like google translate in 2010).

But of course community and professional translations can help translating pages faster so the plugin is not completly useless.

It just needs a major update!

needs a major update

Waste of time

Convenient cloud-based localization and translation for WordPress.
