WPML Multilingual CMS

WPML plans and the WooCommerce integration

WPML Multilingual CMS and WPML Multilingual Agency are paid plans for adding multilingual functions to WooCommerce. Pair either plan with WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce. The integration provides currency utilities, while the WPML plan lets you translate shop content across languages.

Translate the catalog and shopping flow

Translation covers simple, variable, grouped and external products, along with product categories and attributes. You can also translate the cart, payment form and confirmation pages, customer reviews, emails to clients and administrators, URL slugs and endpoints, and theme or extension strings.

WPML supports AI Translation through PTC (Private Translation Cloud). Machine translation is also available through DeepL, Google Translate and Microsoft Translator. If a theme or plugin provides checkout text through localization documents, scan it under WPML → Theme and Plugins Localization. Then manage the resulting strings under WPML → String Translation.

Language settings and localized store URLs

Multilingual SEO features include hreflang tags, localized sitemaps and meta translation. Store URL bases can be translated too, including the product permalink, product category, product tag and product attribute bases.

Currency tools by language or location

The integration lets you add currencies and display prices in more than 200 currencies. Place a currency switcher on product pages or in widgets, and select whether it displays a currency name, symbol or code. The switcher can appear as a list or dropdown, with background color and custom CSS options.

Currency display can follow the site language or the customer's location. Set exchange rates manually, or connect an exchange-rate source for monthly, weekly, daily or hourly updates. You can also set product prices and shipping rates manually in secondary currencies.

Payment methods and inventory across languages

Set payment methods for each currency and track inventory across languages from one dashboard. The integration is compatible with popular WooCommerce extensions, including Subscriptions, Product Add-ons, Product Bundles, Bookings, Composite Products, Tab Manager and Table Rate Shipping. Custom development can use the WooCommerce REST API.

Install the plan and configure the store

Install WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce and use it with either the WPML Multilingual CMS or WPML Multilingual Agency plan. Configure languages, currencies, exchange rates and the currency switcher, then translate products, store pages, URLs, emails and other content. Make sure the theme uses API calls to get page URLs instead of hard-coding them.
