<h3>🔥 One free target language</h3>
<p>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.</p>
<h3>🧮 No word limits!</h3>
<p>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!</p>
<h3>🚀 Optimized for international search engines (SEO)</h3>
<p>When you use wpLingua on your website, all elements of your content – even those that are invisible – are translated.</p>
<p>wpLingua is “SEO-Friendly” because it takes care of translating:</p>
<p>✓ Meta Title tags<br />
✓ Meta Description tags<br />
✓ Hreflang alternative links<br />
✓ Meta tags for social networks (Twitter X, OpenGraph Facebook…)<br />
✓ ALT attributes of images<br />
✓ And more.</p>
<p>By optimizing indexing, we ensure that your translated pages are not only understood by your audience, but are also easily found by search engines.</p>
<h3>🪄 Streamlined Setup Process</h3>
<p>Forget about complex plugins to set up, wpLingua enhances the user experience of the multilingual world.</p>
<p>All you need to do to get started is request your machine translation API key, then play with the language switcher appearance options!</p>
<p>Let wpLingua take care of the technical aspects while you concentrate on creating compelling content for your international audience. Our commitment is <strong>to make multilingual capabilities accessible and easy to use for all WordPress users</strong>.</p>
<h3>✍️ Tailor-made translations at your fingertips with our On-Page Editor</h3>
<p>Although wpLingua gives you the convenience of <strong>machine translations</strong>, we understand the nuances of each language.</p>
<p>wpLingua allows you <strong>to fine-tune each translation manually</strong> if you need to.</p>
<p>Experience the fusion of automation and the personal touch with our <strong>visual on-page editor</strong>.</p>
<h3>🔗 Editable URL translation</h3>
<p>The plugin <strong>automatically discovers URLs on your website and lets you translate them</strong>. URLs are split into slugs (parts of the URL), making them easy to edit. This feature boosts SEO performance!</p>
<h3>🎨 Fully customizable language switcher</h3>
<p>wpLingua’s language switcher is fully customizable. You can display the language selector in four ways:</p>
<p>✓ Automatic insertion via predefined positions.<br />
✓ Use a shortcode to display it wherever you like.<br />
✓ Insertion in the navigation menu using the design defined by the theme.<br />
✓ Insertion in the navigation menu from the site editor using the Gutenberg block named Language Switcher</p>
<p>You can also control the appearance of the language switcher using:</p>
<p>✓ Switcher styles (dropdown, inline, block…)<br />
✓ Predefined themes (light, dark, chameleon, etc.)<br />
✓ Configurable language names (translated name, original name, language ID, etc.)<br />
✓ Flag shapes (round, rectangle, wavy)<br />
✓ Language-based flag choices or import your own flag images<br />
✓ Adding custom CSS in a dedicated insert</p>
<p>With all these customization options, there’s no way your website’s language switcher will look like any other!</p>
<h3>📖 Translation rules by dictionary</h3>
<p>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.</p>
<h3>🖼️ Translation of links and media</h3>
<p>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.</p>
<h3>🧭 Intuitive possibilities to exclude certain translations</h3>
<p>Navigate the complexities of website translation with wpLingua’s intelligent exclusion feature.</p>
<p>Want to preserve specific sections of a page in its original language? Our system seamlessly allows you to pinpoint and <strong>exclude translations using CSS selectors</strong>.</p>
<p>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.</p>
<p>With wpLingua, you’re always in command of what gets translated and what doesn’t, ensuring your website’s essence remains intact.</p>

For example, you must turn off translation for a post type <code>post</code>.<br />
There are two ways:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>In json.<br />
Create in root of a theme or a plugin file <code>wpm-config.json</code> with:<br />
    {<br />
           “post_types”: {<br />
             “post”: null<br />
           }<br />
         }</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>Through the filter.<br />
Add in functions.php<br />
    add_filter( ‘wpm_post_post_config’, ‘__return_null’ );</p>
</li>
</ol>

    wpm_translate_string( $string, $language = ” ); – translate multilingual string<br />
    wpm_translate_value( $value, $language = ” ); – translate multidimensional array with multilingual strings</p>
<p>Update translation occurs at PHP. Therefore plugin has high adaptability, compatibility and easily integrates with other plugins. This is what distinguishes it among similar.</p>
<p>Available translation html tags by JS for strings what do not have WP filters before output.</p>
<p>Add your tags in config:</p>
<pre><code>"admin_html_tags": {
    "admin_screen_id": {
      "attribute": [
        "selector"
      ]
    }
}

    selector – css selector for search needed tag. Each selector is a new array item.</p>
<p>If You need to add translation for multidimentional array for repeated elements You can use custom tag ‘wpm_each’ for set config to each element in array.<br />
Example, add config for each item ‘title’ in custom post field array:</p>
<pre><code>"post_fields": {
    "custom_field": {
      "wpm_each": {
        "title": {}
      }
    }
}
</code></pre>

    [:en]Donec vitae orci sed dolor[:de]Cras risus ipsum faucibus ut[:]</p>
<p>Added shortcode for translate text in any place:<br />
    [wpm_translate][:en]Donec vitae orci sed dolor[:de]Cras risus ipsum faucibus ut[:][wpm_translate]</p>
<p>If You translate text in established language, add lang parameter:<br />
    [wpm_translate lang=”de”][:en]Donec vitae orci sed dolor[:de]Cras risus ipsum faucibus ut[:][wpm_translate]</p>

<ol>

<li>Deactivate qTranslate-X.</li>
<li>Install and activate WP Multilang.</li>
<li>Create in root of your theme file ‘wpm-config.json’.</li>
<li>Add all needed post types, taxonomies, options, fields to ‘wpm-config.json’. Setting from qTranslate-X not importing.</li>
<li>Import term names from qTranslate.</li>
<li>Check that everything is okay.</li>
<li>If everything is okay, remove qTranslate-X. If not, make screenshots of errors, restore database from backup and add support issue with your screenshots and description of errors.</li>
</ol>
<h3>Warning</h3>
<p>Not compatible with:<br />
– WP Maintenance</p>
<h3>Known issues</h3>
<p>Function ‘get_page_by_title’ not working, because in title field are stored titles for all languages. Use function ‘wpm_get_page_by_title( $title )’ as solution.</p>
<p>NOTE: Because plugins have different ways of storing data, WP Multilang is not compatible with every single plugin out-of-the-box (mostly page builders). This may result in texts not being translatable or translations not being saved. Most of these issues can be resolved using the integration options (wpm-config.json or filters) of WP Multilang.</p>
<p>Please try WP Multilang in a test-environment before activating it on an existing production site and always make a backup before activating!</p>

WP Multilang – Translation and Multilingual Plugin

This plugin works great, I tested it on Wordpress 5.5.3, with my custom developed theme and my custom Gutenberg blocks. It just does not give confidence, when you see when it was last updated. If it does not have major issues, you can just change plugin and readme file and declare it compatible with 5.5.3.

Great plugin

I have a page with cpt and cf and the customer decided to translate the page very lately. I tried polylang, wpml, and similir ones and most of them are - why? - very expensive to fit our needs or they are not able to just handle some cf. And then i saw WP Multilang - fuck, this is really exactly what i needed. it works with WP 5.8.3 - just tested it and it works like a charm.. everything is just as one would expect it to be. Thank you soooo much

Just amazin
