It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/multilingual-press/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=2188271) # MultilingualPress By [Syde GmbH (formerly Inpsyde)](https://profiles.wordpress.org/inpsyde/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/multilingual-press.2.11.3.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/multilingual-press/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/multilingual-press/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/multilingual-press/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/multilingual-press/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/multilingual-press/) ## Description **Important Update: A New Chapter for MultilingualPress Users!** We want to let you know that MultilingualPress version 2 will be **retired at the beginning of 2025**. After this date, the plugin will no longer be available for download on this platform, and support for it will come to an end. This change reflects the natural evolution of technology. As WordPress continues to advance, version 2 of MultilingualPress has struggled to keep up with these developments. To ensure you benefit from the highest standards of reliability, performance, and functionality, we’ve made the decision to focus our energy on creating modern solutions that better meet today’s professional needs. For those seeking a robust and efficient multilingual solution, we’re excited to highlight the latest version of MultilingualPress. This updated version is fully compatible with WordPress, packed with cutting-edge features, and powered by optimized code. In 2025, it will also introduce automatic content translation capabilities, making your multilingual management easier than ever! To ensure your multilingual site stays future-ready, we warmly recommend upgrading to [MultilingualPress version 4](https://multilingualpress.org) today. By making the switch, you’ll unlock all the benefits of the latest version and enjoy a seamless transition well ahead of version 2’s deactivation. Thank you for being part of the MultilingualPress journey – we’re happy to keep supporting your multilingual needs with the best tools WordPress has to offer! #### Features * Set up unlimited site relationships in the site manager. * Language Manager with 174 editable languages. * Edit all translations for a post or page from the original post editor without switching sites. * Show a list of links for all translations on each page in a flexible language switcher widget. * Translate posts, pages, and taxonomy terms like categories or tags. * Menu language switcher: Add translation links to any nav menu. * No lock-in: After deactivation, all sites will still work. * SEO-friendly URLs and permalinks. * Support for top-level domains per language (via multisite domain mapping). * Automatic hreflang support. * Support for custom post types. * Automatically redirect to the user’s preferred language version of a post. * Duplicate sites.

MultilingualPress 2 does ot benefit from free or ad hoc support. #### Premium Support We also offer [premium support](https://multilingualpress.org) for the Pro version( MultilingualPress version 3 and higher) to save you time. You get direct help from the developers of the plugin and support from the development.

If you’re new to WordPress multisite, you might find our [WordPress multisite installation tutorial helpful. Use the installer via back-end of your install or … 1. Unpack the download-package. 2. Upload the files to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 3. Activate the plugin through the **Network/Plugins** menu in WordPress and click** Network Activate**. 4. Go to **All Sites**, **Edit** each site, then select the tab **MultilingualPress** to configure the settings. You need at least two sites with an assigned language. ## FAQ ### Will MultilingualPress translate my content? No, it will not. It manages relationships between sites and translations, but it doesn’t change the content. ### Can I use MultilingualPress on a single-site installation? That would require changes to the way WordPress stores post content. Other plugins do that; we think this is wrong, because it creates a lock-in: you would lose access to your content after the plugin deactivation. ### I’m new to WordPress multisite. Are there any tutorials to get me started? Yes, just have a look at our [WordPress multisite installation tutorial . ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/6e70fd65b778a9e9dde98c0e377004ff4b8b06759c90cffb21425102627ad7df? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Excelent multilingual solution](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/excelent-multilingual-solution/)󠁿 [Yeremi Loli](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yeremiloli/) January 10, 2024 Easy to setup and manage the pages and posts translations. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a7b4cd88cf172b71771ded0ed6c4ec66f99d6e5eb423e2db017e31ee4619318e? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[nice and clean](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-and-clean-80/)󠁿 [linterieur](https://profiles.wordpress.org/linterieur/) January 31, 2023

Have to edit this one: error after error, I ignored it because it went on for a year and the site was still functional. But it became worse. No solution found and couldn’t enter my plugin page anymore, only when i deactivated the plugin. Okay, I still worked with the free version, but it hasn’t been updated for 4 years? I guess that would be the problem. Another thing is that allthough i deactivated the plugin en removed it. De 2nd site is still there..and it works with no problems….Magic or…. So sad that it had to be this way..

old review:
after spending weeks to get a nice and easy translation plugin for my site, I decided to take this plugin. A lot of work but it is exactly what i was looking for, thank you for developing this one!

I was hoping for the updates but keeping the old editing console is starting to mess with my other plugins. An the paid version is clearly too expansive. I need to find an alternative now. Any idea? ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4f798e710434f8b308c3e1f8747cc9c542e40d7a2bf1d44784ffb75b82971743? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Beste multilingual plugin, slow and bureaucratic support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/beste-multilingual-plugin-slow-and-bureaucratic-support/)󠁿 [yuluma](https://profiles.wordpress.org/yuluma/) February 19, 2020 We work now with MLP 3 (paid version) for 1,5 year and this is our experience. The plugin does exactly what it should do. It works with WP Multisite and makes sure it does not mess around with WP itself. Every page, post, product has it’s copy in the other site that represents the other language. Downsides: – their support is terrifying slow, every reply starts at the root a great bureaucratic process. They don’t even look into it before you switch off all other things, create test environments, give access to your site. – it’s never their fault, sometimes after 11 messages and sending triple proof they will accept their fault and then…. you have to wait for months before the fix will be implemented – they do give you a quick fix but every time you update that fix will be gone until they implement it in the core – woocommerce brands for example is not working out of the box, you need a fix file – searching products was only available on title… not very need with 10k products, so we suggested to also search for SKU… this took almost a year to process – when you ask to be kept updated they do promise but they always forget– second line support can take up to two weeks upside – it still is the only good working multilingual plugin that does not mess around with your load – copying a new site when you have more than 1k products never worked for us, you have to manually copy the uploads folder, this took 7 weeks before they admited it and we lost a customer over it Advice: be honost in your customer care and don’t play around. We know how hard it is to deliver, we are in the same business but just don’t promise things you can’t deliver or keep people just waiting. No is also an answer 😉 ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/61d9ca3e230d3bbf2bd7dfacffb1a6aee14a9d3628e9e7dcf211ed6f32573403? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great support](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-support-2128/)󠁿 [bootschroef](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bootschroef/) April 9, 2019 Great plugin for multilanguage e-commerce.

`Mlp_Language_Api::get_translations()`. * Better updates: Make sure that site relations are not lost and languages are not duplicated. #### 2.1.1 * Fixed autoloading with `glob()` on Solaris systems. * Fixed database error when upgrading from a preview version of the 2.1 branch. * Custom flags are now fetched from the correct site. * Built-in flag icons are checked on the file system before we return an URL for them. * Language switcher widget is now visible for all users. * Improved description of the widget options. * Search pages are translated correctly. * Pro: Table duplicator works with custom tables now. #### 2.1.0 * Added links to translations to the `head` element. * Relations between sites are now stored in a separate table `mlp_site_relations`. This is faster than the previous option call, and it is less error prone, because we don’t have to synchronize these relations between sites. The old options will be imported into the table automatically during the upgrade. * Pro: Post meta fields in poorly written plugins will not be overwritten anymore. We had many reports about plugins without a check for the current site when they write meta fields. Now we remove all global post data before we synchronize the posts, and we restore them when we are done. * Installation and uninstallation are heavily improved now. We catch many more edge cases and switches from Free to Pro. * Languages are now synchronized between MultilingualPress and WordPress. When you assign a language in MultilingualPress to a site the first time and the language files are available, we set the site language in the WordPress option to that value. * You can add language links to regular navigation menus in the backend now. These links are adjusted automatically on each site: if there is a dedicated translation, the link will be changed to that page. It will point to the other site’s front page otherwise. * Users who are not logged in will not get permalinks for non-public sites anymore. You can work on a new site now safely, test all the links while being logged in, and your visitors will never see that until you set the site to public. * You can link existing terms (tags, categories, whatever) now. We will add support for term creation on that page later. * There are hundreds of other, minor improvements, too many to list them all. #### 2.0.0 * Code refactoring * New Language Manager with editable languages * Rename Widget to _Language Switcher_ * Improved storage of site relationships * Set attributes `width` and `height` for flags * Fixed error on plugin deactivation * Implement

front page is set as static page or custom post type. #### 1.1 * Better data handling during setup of post relationships. * Fixed wrong links in widget on the front page. * Added a Catalonian flag, the Canadian flag was used for `ca` accidentally. * Removed need to reload settings after adding a new relationship. * Copy post meta data and featured image for connected posts. * Set preview of connected posts to `readonly`, not `disabled` to make copy and paste easier. * Show languages in site list in native writing style (alphabet), not flags. * Improved German translation. * Made all text domain references static strings. * Unify hook names. **Developers: we will change our API completely in version 1.2.** If you have any questions, please [contact us](http://inpsyde.com/#contact)
