✓ Configurable language names (translated name, original name, language ID, etc.)
✓ Flag shapes (round, rectangle, wavy)

✓ 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!
???? 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
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.
⚡️ 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.
Easily configure your language switcher design with predefined options.
You can choose which flag to display by language or import a custom flag.
Once the plugin is downloaded, installed and activated, register your API key.
As soon as your API key has been registered, your website is multilingual. This option screen allows you to configure your languages and their flags, as well as activate the functionalities.
Customizing the language switcher, enable or disable auto-insertion + choose position or use the shortcode.
Define translation rules that apply when generating machine translations.
You have the possibility to exclude pages or parts of pages.
If you need, you can edit a translation directly from your pages using our visual editor.

All translations are stored on your WordPress website.
