The plugin on wp.org - wordpress.org/plugins/wplingua

The project website - wpLingua.com




πŸš€ Optimized for international search engines (SEO)


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:

$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Meta Title tags
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Meta Description tags
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Hreflang alternative links
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Meta tags for social networks (Twitter X, OpenGraph Facebook...)
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ ALT attributes of images
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ 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.



✨ On-page visual editor for editing translations


All translations are editable. Discover the visual editor and edit translations simply by clicking on them.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.



🎨 Fully customizable language switcher


The wpLingua language switcher is fully customisable. You can display the language switcher in three ways:

$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Automatic insertion via predefined positions
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Using a shortcode to display it wherever you like
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Insertion in the navigation menu using the design defined by the theme

You can also control the appearance of the language switcher using:

$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Switcher styles (dropdown, inline, block...)
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Predefined themes (light, dark, chameleon, etc.)
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Configurable language names (translated name, original name, language ID, etc.)
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Flag shapes (round, rectangle, wavy)
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ Language-based flag choices or import your own flag images
$${\color{lightgreen}βœ“}$$ 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!



πŸ“– Translation rules by dictionary


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.



🧭 Intuitive possibilities to exclude certain translations


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.

⚑️ The wpLingua API


The wpLingua plugin relies on our own wpLingua API, an integrated third-party service, to provide its machine translation functionality. The call to this Third Party Service (wpLingua API) is made when creating an API key from the plugin, during API key verification and when your website requests a new automatic translation (new texts discovered on a page web or request automatic translations from the translation edition). We invite you to consult our Terms & Conditions page for more information.

You can edit all translations of your website.

If you need, you can edit a translation directly from your pages using our visual editor.
