MultilingualPress Pro
=====================

[](#multilingualpress-pro)

Stable tag: 2.0.3

Create networks with multiple languages

Description
-----------

[](#description)

Connect multiple sites as language alternatives in a multisite. Use a customizable widget to link to all sites.

This plugin lets you connect an unlimited amount of sites with each other. Set a main language for each site, create relationships (connections), and start writing. You get a new field now to create a linked post on all the connected sites automatically. They are accessible via the post/page editor screen - you can switch back and forth to translate them.

In contrast to most other translation plugins there is **no lock-in effect**: When you disable our plugin, all sites will still work as separate sites without any data-loss or garbage output.

Our **Language Manager** offers 174 languages, and you can edit them.

Free version
------------

[](#free-version)

- Set up unlimited site relationships in the site manager.
- Language Manager with 174 editable languages.
- View the translations for each post or page underneath the post editor.
- Show a list of links for all translations on each page in a flexible widget.
- No lock-in: After deactivation, all sites will still work.

Pro Version
-----------

[](#pro-version)

Our [pro-version](http://marketpress.com/product/multilingual-press-pro/) offers many features to save your time and to improve your work flow and user experience:

- Support for custom post types.
- Automatically redirect to the user's preferred language version of a post.
- Edit all translations for a post from the original post editor without the need to switch sites.
- Duplicate sites. Use one site as template for new site, copy *everything:* Posts, attachments, settings for plugins and themes, navigation menus, categories, tags and custom taxonomies.
- Synchronized trash: move all connected post to trash with one click.
- Change relationships between translations or connect existing posts.
- Quicklinks. Add links to language alternatives to a post automatically to the post content. This is especially useful when you don't use widgets or a sidebar.
- User specific language settings for the back-end. Every user can choose a preferred language for the user interface without affecting the output of the front-end.
- Show posts with incomplete translations in a dashboard widget.

Installation and prerequisites
------------------------------

[](#installation-and-prerequisites)

### Requirements

[](#requirements)

- WordPress Multisite 3.3+
- PHP 5.2.4, newer PHP versions will work faster.

### Installation

[](#installation)

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.

Frequently Asked Questions
--------------------------

[](#frequently-asked-questions)

### Will MultilingualPress translate my content?

[](#will-multilingualpress-translate-my-content)

No, it will not. It manages relationships between sites and translations, but it doesn't change the content.

### Where can I get additional language files?

[](#where-can-i-get-additional-language-files)

You can find all official translation files in WordPress' [language repository](http://i18n.svn.wordpress.org/).

### Can I use MultilingualPress on a single-site installation?

[](#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.
