The safest way to localize your WordPress projects without breaking the code. Scan all translatable strings, translate into 40 languages with AI, and deploy production-ready .po/.mo files — all from your WordPress dashboard.
Recursively scans all plugin and theme directories. Detects .po, .pot, and untranslated projects with 3-layer name resolution — even handles ACF Pro and other plugins with non-standard slugs.
Select multiple target languages and translate them all simultaneously with a single click. Each language runs as a separate job — if one fails, the others continue.
Edit fuzzy and untranslated strings directly in your browser. Filter by status, see dot badges for fuzzy (orange) and untranslated (red), and save all changes with one click.
Generate .pot template files from source code for plugins without translation files. Recognizes all WordPress i18n functions: __(), _e(), _n(), _x(), esc_html__(), and more.
Upload ZIP or bare .po files. Automatic .bak backup before every import. Files are placed in the correct WordPress languages directory and .mo is compiled automatically.
Hooks into WordPress load_textdomain_mofile to ensure your translations always load correctly — even for plugins like Smart Slider 3 that use custom loading logic.
Connect your API key, set language filters, configure translation preferences, and manage advanced options — all in one settings page.
Accordion view grouped by plugin/theme. Each file shows type, language, progress pie chart, translated/total count, and location badge.
Track active jobs with real-time progress. View, edit, fix missing strings, or delete translations — all from a single page.
Enter your API key in Settings, click 'Auto Translate' on any file, select target languages, and the plugin handles everything — translation, download, and deployment. Never leave your WordPress dashboard.
No API key needed. Download .po or .pot files from the Scanner, translate them on simplepotranslate.com or any tool like Poedit, then upload the result back. The plugin compiles .mo and places files in the right directory.
Upload to your WordPress plugins directory or install from the WordPress plugin screen. Requires PHP 8.0+ and WordPress 6.4+.
Go to SimplePoTranslate > Scan Files. The plugin automatically detects all .po, .pot files and untranslated projects across your plugins and themes.
Two paths: (A) Manual — download the file, translate externally, upload the result. (B) Automatic — enter API key, select languages, click Auto Translate.
Translations are deployed to wp-content/languages/. They persist even if you deactivate the plugin. Your site is now multilingual.

Lightweight, secure, and compatible with any WordPress setup.
Filter the Scanner, Translations page, and Auto Translate modal to show only the languages you care about. Perfect for multilingual sites with specific target locales.
See your account status, plan badge, monthly string usage with progress bar, and quick action cards. A 'Mission Complete' panel appears when all files are fully translated.
Track active jobs with real-time progress bars. View completed translations grouped by plugin/theme. One-click 'Fix Missing' to translate only the missing strings.
API keys encrypted with AES-256-CBC. All AJAX operations protected by WordPress nonce verification. Path traversal protection, XSS escaping, and CSRF protection on every request.
Translations are stored in WordPress standard directories — they keep working even after deactivation. Uninstall removes only plugin data, never your translation files.
All admin pages use nocache_headers() to prevent LiteSpeed Cache, WP Super Cache, and similar plugins from serving stale data. Object cache invalidation on every settings change.
Install our free WordPress plugin, connect your API key, and start translating your themes and plugins into 40+ languages — directly from your WordPress dashboard. No coding required.
