Frequently Asked Questions

How are strings detected?

Every text test that appears on your website will be captured and stored automatically if it has not been translated.

Does it support custom post types or themes?

Yes. The plugin is theme-agnostic and works with custom post types, themes, and almost all builders (please let me know if there are any builders that are incompatible).
