WooCommerce Multilingual

WooCommerce Multilingual Addon

WooCommerce Multilingual is an add-on for WPML (WordPress Multilingual) that allows you to create and manage multilingual online stores using the WooCommerce plugin. With WooCommerce Multilingual, you can translate your products, categories, and other WooCommerce elements, ensuring a seamless shopping experience for users in different languages. Here’s how you can use WooCommerce Multilingual to build a multilingual WooCommerce store:

1. Install and activate WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual: Start by installing and activating both the WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual plugins on your WordPress website. WPML provides the core multilingual functionality, while WooCommerce Multilingual extends WPML to handle WooCommerce-specific translations.

2. Configure WPML settings: In the WPML settings, specify the default language for your website and add the additional languages you want to support. This sets up the language structure for your multilingual store.

3. Enable WooCommerce Multilingual: Once WPML is configured, navigate to the WPML -> WooCommerce Multilingual section to enable the WooCommerce Multilingual add-on. This integration ensures that WooCommerce elements are translated and synchronized correctly.

4. Translate product and category pages: With WooCommerce Multilingual, you can translate product pages, categories, tags, and other WooCommerce elements. In the WordPress admin area, you’ll find the translation management interface provided by WPML. From there, you can select the products and categories you want to translate and assign them to translators or perform the translations manually.

5. Manage product variations: If your products have variations (e.g., different sizes or colors), WooCommerce Multilingual allows you to translate and sync those variations across languages. You can translate variation labels, prices, stock status, and other attributes to provide accurate information to users in each language.

6. Handle currency and pricing: WooCommerce Multilingual provides options for managing currency and pricing in different languages. You can set the currency for each language and define exchange rates if necessary. This ensures that product prices are displayed correctly based on the user’s selected language.

7. Localize cart and checkout pages: WooCommerce Multilingual enables you to translate and localize the cart and checkout pages to match the language of your customers. This includes translating labels, messages, shipping options, payment gateways, and other elements related to the purchase process.

8. Translate emails and notifications: WooCommerce sends various automated emails and notifications to customers. With WooCommerce Multilingual, you can translate these emails into different languages, ensuring that customers receive communications in their preferred language.

By using WooCommerce Multilingual, you can create a fully functional multilingual WooCommerce store that caters to customers in different languages. It allows you to provide localized product information, a seamless checkout experience, and accurate pricing.

Please note that the process and available options may vary depending on the versions of WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual you are using. It’s recommended to consult the official documentation and support resources of WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual for detailed instructions and specific guidance based on your setup.
