Translation Services for WPML Clients

Translation for WPML-powered WordPress sites. We work with the Translations dashboard, XLIFF files, String Translation, and WPML's WooCommerce add-on.

Human Translation for WPML Sites

WPML is one of the most established multilingual plugins for WordPress and a common choice for multilingual sites. It handles the technical site complexity (URL structure, hreflang tags, taxonomy translation, plugin string handling) and can translate automatically with its built-in AI engine. Brand-critical, regulated, and high-traffic pages still benefit from qualified human translators, and that is where we come in.

Our service supports whichever WPML workflow fits your site and editorial process: the Translations dashboard for direct integration, XLIFF export for translation memory tools, String Translation for theme and plugin strings, and WPML's WooCommerce add-on for store content. Content outside the plugin, such as brochures and contracts, goes through our professional translation services, and our interpreting services for meetings support workshops with your editorial team. Terms and licences tied to the site can be supplied as certified translations for an EU or US authority.

How We Work With WPML Sites

WPML Translations Dashboard Workflow

We can work as translators inside your WPML Translations dashboard (formerly Translation Management). You send a job, we translate it, and the result returns to your queue ready for review and publishing.

XLIFF Export and Reimport

For complex sites, or when you prefer to keep translation outside WordPress, we accept XLIFF exports from WPML, translate with full translation memory, and return the files for a clean reimport.

WPML String Translation

Theme strings, plugin strings, custom field labels, and admin texts translated through WPML's String Translation, or as PO files from its import and export tool. Back-end strings are included.

WooCommerce Multilingual and Multicurrency

Product, attribute, taxonomy, and email template translation for stores running WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce. Currency-specific content is handled where your store uses it.

WPML Translation FAQ

Do we need to give you admin access to our WordPress site?

Not necessarily. We can work through the WPML Translations dashboard with translator-role access only, or via XLIFF export and reimport where you handle the publish step yourself. Admin access is only needed if you want us to publish on your behalf.

Can you translate WPML-managed sites built with Elementor or Divi?

Yes. WPML supports both Elementor and Divi, and their text content can be sent for translation as jobs or XLIFF files. We keep inline markup intact so the page builder layout is preserved on reimport.

How does WPML translation memory help?

WPML saves completed translations to its translation memory when you use the Advanced Translation Editor, then reuses them for matching segments within the same language pair. Repeated content such as footer and navigation text is translated once and reused, which can lower ongoing cost for sites that update regularly.

In the Classic Translation Editor, only exact matches are reused.

Can you translate WooCommerce products on a WPML site?

Yes. With WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce installed, product titles, descriptions, attributes, and variations can be sent for translation like any other content.

We translate product copy for each market, keep SKUs and attribute values consistent across languages, and flag any shipping or checkout text that still needs a translation.

Should we use WPML automatic translation or human translation?

WPML can now translate automatically with its built-in AI engine, and that can be enough for low-traffic or internal pages. Your key landing pages, product pages, and legal text are a different matter, because a mistranslation there costs sales or creates risk.

A common approach is to let WPML translate the long tail automatically and send the pages that matter most for human translation or review. Contracts or licences behind the site that must go to a state court, a county clerk, or a European commercial register can be delivered as certified translations.
