Openlang – WordPress AI Translation for Multilingual Websites

Openlang – WordPress AI Translation for Multilingual Websites

Description

Openlang is a WordPress translation plugin for creating and managing multilingual websites. It discovers visible frontend strings at runtime, lets you manage manual translations, supports optional hosted AI translation, and serves language-specific URLs with an instant language switcher.

Use Openlang when you need a multilingual WordPress plugin that gives you control over translated strings while keeping automatic translation optional. You can enable multiple languages, edit translations manually, switch between RTL and LTR layouts, and use translation caching for faster repeated delivery.

WordPress Translation & Multilingual Features

  • WordPress translation plugin: Discover visible frontend text and common translatable attributes at runtime.
  • Manual translation: Review, edit, and manage detected strings from the WordPress admin area.
  • Multilingual website support: Enable multiple languages and choose a configurable default language.
  • Optional AI translation: Use the hosted Openlang translation service only when automatic translation is explicitly enabled.
  • Automatic translation workflow: Translate missing strings through the hosted service when requested.
  • Language switcher: Give visitors an instant frontend language switcher.
  • Language-specific URLs: Serve language-aware URLs with browser history handling.
  • RTL language support: Automatically handle RTL/LTR direction for multilingual layouts.
  • Translation cache: Reuse translated content through a persistent translation cache.
  • Translation analytics: View translation coverage, runtime activity, analytics, and system status.
  • Elementor integration: Add the Openlang language switcher through Elementor integration.

Manual Translation + Auto AI Translation

Openlang supports both manual translation management and optional hosted AI translation. Manual translation works locally and does not require the hosted translation service. If automatic translation is enabled by an administrator, Openlang can request translations for missing strings from the hosted Openlang translation service.

This makes Openlang suitable for WordPress site owners who want to manually control important translations while still having an automatic translation option available when needed.

Language Switcher, Language URLs & RTL Support

Visitors can switch between enabled languages using the frontend language switcher. Openlang also supports language-specific URLs, browser history handling, and RTL/LTR direction so multilingual WordPress websites can present languages in the appropriate reading direction.

Free WordPress Translation Plugin

The WordPress.org Free package contains no license system and does not lock any locally shipped feature behind payment or a key.

A separate Openlang Pro plugin is available from the plugin website. Pro adds per-language typography, per-language website-logo overrides, and CSV translation import/export. The Pro implementation is not included in this WordPress.org Free package.

External services

Openlang can optionally connect to the Openlang hosted translation service at https://vynatics.corsysltd.com/ to translate missing strings. This connection is disabled by default and occurs only after an administrator enables hosted automatic translation in Openlang > Settings and a translation is requested.

When used, the plugin sends the source and target language codes, source strings and their MD5 dictionary hashes, the site URL and an MD5 hash of the site URL, the Openlang plugin version, and the WordPress version. The Free version does not send a Openlang license key because it has no license system.
