FAQ

Does this work with other e-commerce plugins?

No. This plugin is tailored for WooCommerce.

What do I need to do in my theme?

Make sure that your theme is not hard-coding any URL. Always use API calls to receive URLs to pages and you’ll be fine.

How do I edit the translations of the cart or checkout page?

Some themes and plugins provide their own translations via localization files. WordPress loads these translations automatically.

To change any of these translations, you need to scan the theme or plugin providing these files. Go to WPML → Theme and Plugins Localization, select the theme or plugin providing the checkout page, and scan it.

After scanning, you should have the strings available in WPML → String Translation.

Can I have different URLs for the store in different languages?

Yes. You can translate the product permalink base, product category base, product tag base and the product attribute base on the Store URLs section.

Why do my product category pages return a 404 error?

In this case, you may need to translate the product category base. You can do that on the Store URLs section.

Can I set the prices in the secondary currencies?

By default, the prices in the secondary currencies are determined using the exchange rates that you fill in when you add or edit a currency. On individual products, however, you can override this and set prices manually for the secondary currencies.

Can I have separate currencies for each language?

Yes. By default, each currency will be available for all languages, but you can customize this and disable certain currencies on certain languages. You also have the option to display different currencies based on your customers’ locations instead.

Is this plugin compatible with other WooCommerce extensions?

WooCommerce Multilingual is compatible with all major WooCommerce extensions. We’re continuously working on checking and maintaining compatibility and collaborate closely with the authors of these extensions.

Like many others, I decided to remove WPML because of the amount of resources this plugin consumes. WPML fulfilled 50% of the goal by sacrificing 100% of the speed. And as expected the exiting brought a lot of problems and tons of duplicated files. Support responded in 4 hours however, it just provided an article and, at the end of that day, a previous post with similar problems, which created a bigger problem and almost brought the site down. And the support has not replied back since then. We managed to recover and remove the plugin with the help of others. 2 days later the support showed up again. I do not recommend installing WPML unless you will never remove it. *Yes I know this is WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency, which is developed by WPML.

I am a WPML contributor and have been using this plugin for over 14 years. I have seen it grow and develop into the flawless product it has become today. I rarely bother support but recently I had to open a ticket for a problem related to Gutenberg (which I don’t mind using but which interfered with translations as it is part of the core) and support (in the person of Mihai Apetrei) helped me he made a suggestion right away which proved to be a solution. No way… the support always proves patient but above all competent. I’m sorry but as far as I’m concerned they have no competitor. WPML for life!RegardsAle
