Preparing Website Content with WPML for Import and Export
If you’re managing a multilingual WooCommerce store, the integration of WPML with the Product Import Export Plugin for WooCommerce can streamline your product and review management. By pairing these two powerful tools, you can easily import and export products in different languages, saving time and ensuring your content reaches a global audience.
WPML Translations and Product Management
To get started, ensure you have the latest versions of both the Product Import Export Plugin (1.1.9 or above) and WPML (3.5.3.1 or above). Follow these steps to prepare your multilingual website:
- Set Up WPML: Go to WPML → Languages and follow the simple setup guide. Choose your default language, select additional active languages, and configure your language selector (you can adjust this later). Make sure to install and activate all necessary WPML plugins.
- Install the Product Import Export Plugin: Install and activate the plugin for WooCommerce. This will enable easy import and export of products across different languages.
Translation Modes with WPML
WPML provides two translation modes for flexibility:
- Translate Everything: Automatically translates all your website content, including pages, posts, and custom post types.
- Translate Some: Gives you more control over what content to translate, ideal if you don’t want to translate the entire site.
For untranslated text like smaller widgets or form fields, use the String Translation module to manually translate them.
Importing and Exporting WPML Products
Once WPML is set up, you can easily export and import products in multiple languages. The Product Import Export Plugin integrates seamlessly with WPML, enabling effortless product migration between your store and the multilingual settings.
