What is TranslatePress?
TranslatePress offers a streamlined approach to translating WordPress websites directly from the front-end interface. Users can visually translate everything they see, including content from shortcodes, forms, and complex page builders, eliminating the need to switch between different backend interfaces or editors. This method ensures that translations are applied within the actual context of the final page design.
The plugin integrates artificial intelligence through TranslatePress AI, utilizing services like DeepL, Google Translate, and Microsoft Translator for automatic translation of the entire website content. While automated translation provides a quick start, users retain full control to manually refine any translations for accuracy. Furthermore, TranslatePress is GPL and self-hosted, meaning users own their translation data permanently. It also includes features for translating images and supports dynamic strings generated by WordPress core, themes, and plugins.
