WPML is the go-to plugin to translate your website into multiple languages. With WPML you can translate pages, posts, products, custom types, taxonomy, menus and even the theme’s texts.
While WPML works with most themes, it does not work with all WordPress themes.
Let’s face it, everything is going online, and because the world is more connected then ever, we need a way to display our websites in different languages.
This is where a multilingual plugin for WordPress comes in.
There are several plugins and services that allow you to translate your website, but in this video, I go over WPML because of their page builder add n which makes it easy to translate a page made with Beaver Builder or Elementor.
There are currently no active WPML Coupon or WPML Discounts available.
WPML is the gold standard of WordPress translation plugins. It is very affordable in comparison to WEGLOT and Polylang, and has been around long enough to offer a complete WordPress translation solution.

It’s just a piece of crap. I’ve had many issues last few years. And today I ran into two different issues, at two different sites.
At one site, WordPress started to send me messages about fatal errors few days ago. The errors were caused by WPML. Not possible to login anymore. Needed to restore a backup from a few weeks ago, now everything seems fine. However I wait with updating to the latest version of WPML for a while…
At another site I tried to do a complete uninstall, since the client does not need multiple languages anymore. After following the instructions from their customer support step by step, and finishing the uninstall, the site suddenly came up with server error 500 at every single page.
I’m using Polylang at another site, and I’ve never ever had any trouble with that one.
Just my two cents…
Yea I have heard this from some people. There is also TranslatePress which is becoming quite popular.
More than 10 years experience and WPML has the worst costumer support I ever seen.
