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.

If you use a Cache it will not work. And who want a Onlineshop without Cache? Useless Plugin, its timewaste

Not only did it kill my website performance. Not only was it beyond complicated and buggy. It is also alleged to be a scam. They charged me 80 USD to translate five pages, they've sent an invoice for well over 250 pages (majority of which are inaccessible; the translations do not exist). The China-based company who may or may not still have my credit card on file (there is no clear explanation and no replies to my email) have no interest in after sales support or refunding or even understanding the problem. This stinks of a scam. My website is now broken. Despite an incredibly fast, cloud hosted, premium server we now have hanging pages, 404's all over the shop and a useless translation plugin called WPML did the damage.Note carefully (I did not) the language on the credits page- a clever use of English implies the credits drop down to a fraction of a cent after the initial introductory credits are used. Note their refund policy. Note the 1 star ratings.Note carefully the estimator only reads the current list of pages displayed / previewed (I think by default its 10 or so pages). You have to go digging to increase this number to show all pages, only then can you see the correctly estimated credits required. Note the slow pace of feedback: one moment you've spent 25 credits. Return to your screen 30 minutes later: 150,000 are gone. I feel so stupid as having previously (5+ years ago) I did trial this plugin and found it broke the site, it is incredibly badly written and not optimised in any way shape or form. WPML is no better than a scam. You would do much better to create a spreadsheet of your content and take it direct to a language translation site or perhaps get someone to stick it through some AI. You can then import those back into another CMS. I cannot remember leaving a bad review on Wordpress for anything, but you must be warmed WooCommerce Multilingual is a rip off and it is no wonder others have called it a scam.

We use the store plugin with one WP installation and three domains for different countries and the plugin works perfectly.
