Would you like to have multiple languages on your WordPress website? Have you already tried some of the other translation plugins available, but found them too complicated? We havef tried to make it really easy for you to manage your multi-language WordPress powered website. Everything is centralized and we don’t create new copies of your posts and pages. Easy Translation Manager lets you translate Pages, Posts,Post Tags, Post Categories, Custom Post Types, Menus, Plugins and Themes. Your visitors can easily choose their preferred language from a drop down in the sidebar. Or you can automatically set the language based on the web browsers language. The plugin is compatible with WordPress Multisite and supports Custom Capabilities as well as SEO in Multiple Languages! Please notice that this is not a plugin for automatic translation of your website. This is a professional plugin for managing translators and translating your WordPress powered website (Themes, Plugins, Pages, Posts, Menus, Permalinks, Tags, Categories, SEO etc.)

Get Started in 3 Easy Steps! WordPress has been translated into more than 70 languages and many Theme and Plugin developers have already localized their Themes and Plugins. However managing a multi-language WordPress website can often be a quite complicated task. We often see that parts of Plugins or Themes have not been translated or a specific plugin is not available in the language you need. We have simplified things, when it comes to translating your content as well as Plugins and Themes. Insert Widget or Tag to show language selection It is really easy for your visitors to choose their preferred language when they visit your website. You can choose between inserting a Widget in your sidebar to let visitors choose the language or you can insert a tag directly into your template. It is also possible to set the language based on the language of the visitors Internet browser. Some of the features Test language on IP In the Options Panel under General Settings you can enter one or more IP addresses, which will be able to view the translations. Under Languages you can then set which languages this is applicable for. This is a helpful feature if you wish to test a specific language translation before releasing it. Manage availability of Items You can easily choose which Plugins, Themes, Pages, Posts, Custom Post Types and Menus that will be made available for translation. Support for Custom Capabilities We have added 13 Custom Capabilities to the plugin, which makes it really easy for you to specify exactly what your different user roles have access to. Plugin & Theme Translation Easy Translation Manager automatically scans your plugins and themes folder in order to find strings (textdomains) ready for translation. If you see any rows marked with red this indicates that the text does not have a text domain, and will require manual action in order to be ready for translation. If you have other strings that need translation you can also add them manually. Support for SEO in Multiple Languages Instead of building our own SEO system from scratch for Easy Translation Manager we decided to support WordPress SEO by Yoast. This is the most complete WordPress SEO plugin that exists today for WordPress.org users. It incorporates everything from a snippet preview and page analysis functionality that helps you optimize your pages content, images titles, meta descriptions and more to XML sitemaps, and loads of optimization options in between. You need to install WordPress SEO by Yoast and then activate support for this plugin in the Options Panel. After installing the WordPress SEO plugin and activating support for this you will get a SEO button in each translation window. When you click this you will be able to add SEO information for each translation. You can add SEO specific information for all Posts and Pages like: Focus Keywords, SEO Title and Meta Description. Easy Translation Manager will also automatically include all the language specific links in the sitemaps generated by the WordPress SEO . This will make optimization for each language much easier! WordPress Themes ready for translation Many theme and plugin developers are preparing their themes and plugins for translation according to the WordPress Codex for internationalization.

When this is done properly you can easily translate the theme or plugin using our plugin. The following themes are 100% ready for translation with Easy Translation Manager:
