Multisite Language Switcher

A simple, powerful, and user-friendly plugin that adds multilingual support to your WordPress multisite installation, whether using multiple subdomains or folders. Multisite Language Switcher allows you to effortlessly manage translations for posts, pages, custom post types, categories, tags, and custom taxonomies.

The plugin uses flag icons from FamFamFam. Thanks to Mark James for his great work. In addition, I would like to thank Jürgen Mayer for creating the plugin’s banner.

Please, don’t forget to rate this plugin! 🙂

You can translate this plugin on translate.wordpress.org, or if you prefer and have created your language pack, or have an update of an existing one, you can send me your Gettext PO and MO so that I can
bundle it into the Multisite Language Switcher. You can download the latest POT file
from here.

• Use the WordPress admin to install the plugin from there or
• Download the plugin and uncompress it with your preferred unzip programme and copy the entire directory in the plugin directory of your WordPress blog (/wp-content/plugins)
• Activate the plugin in your plugin administration page (by the network administrator on all the blogs or by the blog administrator for each particular blog).
• After activation, configure the plugin once in each blog under Settings -> Multisite Language Switcher

Now you can:

• Connect your translated pages and posts in Posts -> Edit or Pages -> Edit
• Connect your translated categories and tags in Posts -> Categories or Posts -> Tags
• connect your Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies across languages
• use the widget, the Gutenberg block, the shortcode [sc_msls] and/or a content_filter which displays a hint to the user if a translation is available
• you can find also a shortcode for the widget [sc_msls_widget]
• optionally you can place the code <?php if ( function_exists( 'msls_the_switcher' ) ) msls_the_switcher(); ?> directly in your theme files
