## Description

**WPGlobus** turns your WordPress site into a multilingual one. You choose the languages
you want, and WPGlobus adds the fields where you enter your own translations – post
and page titles, content, excerpts, categories, tags, and more.

#### Free and Pro versions

 * Free: **WPGlobus** – this plugin. The essential multilingual tools, free from
   WordPress.org.
 * Pro: **TIV Globus** – the successor to WPGlobus Plus and WooCommerce WPGlobus.
   The complete multilingual tools, sold on the WooCommerce.com marketplace.

#### WPGlobus allows you to:

 * Enter translations for posts, pages, custom post types, categories, tags, menus,
   and widgets;
 * Enter translations for the Site Title and Tagline;
 * Enter multilingual SEO titles and meta descriptions – compatible with Yoast SEO(
   free version);
 * Add one or several languages using custom combinations of country flags, locales,
   and language names;
 * Give each language its own URL (`example.com/`, `example.com/es/`, `example.com/
   fr/`, and so on);
 * Switch languages on the front-end with a drop-down menu extension and/or a customizable
   widget with various display options;
 * Switch the admin interface language from the top bar.

#### What is in the Pro version (TIV Globus)?

Everything in the Free version, plus the ability to:

 * Give each page a full translated address, including “slug” (`/my-page/` becomes`/
   fr/ma-page/`, `/es/mi-pagina/`, and so on);
 * Enter translations for WooCommerce products, categories, and attributes;
 * Use popular page builders (Elementor, Avada, and more) in every language;
 * …and much more.

[Get TIV Globus](https://wpglobus.com/tiv-globus/) – the Pro version of WPGlobus.
It replaces WPGlobus without losing your settings or translations, and works with
or without WooCommerce.

#### A free upgrade for our customers

Already own **WPGlobus Plus** or **WooCommerce WPGlobus**? You can move to TIV Globus
at no extra cost. This is a limited-time offer for existing customers.

#### Important Notes: please read first!

These notes apply to both **WPGlobus** (free) and **TIV Globus** (Pro).

 * NO AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION:
    - The plugin does NOT translate texts automatically! You **translate texts manually**.
 * IF YOU UNINSTALL, YOU MUST REMOVE THE EXTRA LANGUAGES:
    - All translations are stored together in a special format: `{:en}English{:}{:
      fr}French{:}{:es}Spanish{:}`. If the plugin is not active, every language 
      shows at once and your site becomes unreadable. Before you **deactivate and
      uninstall**, you **must run the cleanup tool** to remove all languages but
      one. See the details in the plugin’s settings.
 * PAGE BUILDERS / COMPOSERS:
    - Page-builder support is available only in **TIV Globus** (Pro).
 * COOKIES:
    - The plugin uses a browser cookie to remember your language preference. It 
      stores only the language code (such as `en` or `es`) – no personal information.
 * MULTISITE:
    - The **multisite** mode (multiple virtual sites sharing a single WordPress 
      installation) is **not tested and not officially supported**. It may still
      work, but use it at your own discretion.

#### Compatibility with themes and plugins

WPGlobus works with any theme or plugin that passes its text through the standard
WordPress filters before displaying it – which covers the large majority of them.

Some add-ons that render their own output (sliders, forms, page composers, and the
like) are not always multilingual-ready. When you find an element that will not 
translate, please **let its author know** – the fix is usually small.

We test against many popular themes and plugins and follow their updates as closely
as we can. Since third-party code changes frequently, an occasional tweak on our
side may be needed after an update.

#### Pautan Kekal

WPGlobus needs “pretty” permalinks. Go to `Settings -> Permalinks` and pick any 
structure other than “Plain” (with no `index.php` in it) – URLs like `example.com/?
p=123` will not work.

**WooCommerce:** set your store bases explicitly (for example, Shop Base `/product/`).
If you leave them blank, WooCommerce may translate the base itself (e.g. `/produkt/`
for German), causing 404 errors.

## Installation

You can install this plugin directly from your WordPress dashboard:

 1. Go to the _Plugins_ menu and click _Add New_.
 2. Search for _WPGlobus_.
 3. Click _Install Now_ next to the WPGlobus plugin.
 4. Activate the plugin.

Alternatively, see the guide to [Manual Plugin Installation](https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/manage-plugins/#manual-plugin-installation-1).

## FAQ

### No automatic translation

WPGlobus does NOT translate texts! You need to **translate texts manually**.

### After deactivating WPGlobus, all my pages look like garbage!

What you see is a mix of the languages, which WPGlobus knows how to handle when 
it’s active.
 When you deactivate WPGlobus, your site is not multilingual anymore,
and you have to remove all translations.

WPGlobus stores all translations using a special format: `{:en}English{:}{:fr}French{:}{:
es}Spanish{:}`. If you decide to **deactivate WPGlobus**, you **must run the cleanup
tool** to keep only one language. See the details on the “Uninstall” tab in the 
WPGlobus Settings.

### When I switch language, I am getting 404 on all pages

Please go to the `Admin - Settings - Permalinks` page. Make sure that the `Common
Settings` is not set to “Plain” and then press the `Save Changes` button. It should
help.

### What is the difference between WPGlobus and TIV Globus?

**WPGlobus** (this plugin) is the free version, with the essential multilingual 
tools. **TIV Globus** is the Pro version: it adds translated URLs, WooCommerce, 
page-builder support, and more. See “Free and Pro versions” near the top for the
full comparison, or visit the [TIV Globus page](https://wpglobus.com/tiv-globus/).

### I own WPGlobus Plus or WooCommerce WPGlobus. Are they still supported?

Those add-ons have been replaced by **TIV Globus**, which brings their features 
together in one product. As an existing customer, you can move to TIV Globus at 
no extra cost – see [the free upgrade](https://wpglobus.com/free-tiv-globus/).

### Will my translations and settings carry over to TIV Globus?

Yes. TIV Globus reads the same storage format as WPGlobus, so your existing translations
and language settings are kept. Your content stays compatible with WPGlobus, so 
you can switch back later if you ever need to.

### Does TIV Globus require WooCommerce?

No. TIV Globus is sold on the WooCommerce.com marketplace, but it works on any site–
with or without WooCommerce.

I came across along here because a client’s website with this plugin crashed completely
because it is adding to each db-entry inside of the _postmeta, _options and _posts
table brackets like {:de}…{:pl}…{:}. The deinstallation-routine of this plugin was
not able to remove it, what it has stored into the database. The result after running
the deinstallation-routine ended in completely removed styles and content-blocks,
which were created with Elementor. All menue-eintries got broken too. The website
was built as onepager and this plugin blowed up the wordpress-database with this
those shitty brackets to more than 130 MB. All revision were affected too.After 
5 times of try&errror without any solution and rolling back, I got today this plugin
finally removed with WP-CLI and a lot of regex-sql-updates along sql-backups after
each step. The database got shrinked to 4 MB after the cleaning from WPGlobal. I
have never seen so much hazzle to remove a plugin. This is a very bad example how
it can ends, when the developers doesn’t follow the wordpress codex. It’s a shame
that the developers of this plugin are still selling licenses for it, which is not
more maintained anymore.

 [tripmedia](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tripmedia/) 24 April 2024

We bought the premium plugin which turns out to be outdated , irrelevant and doesn’t
get any new updates. We tried to reach the support team with their email , however,
no response won’t recommend

This plugin have had always several bugs, until they stop to support and now it’s
in conflict with Gutemberg and none of them give any support!

 [mihailmc](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mihailungu/) 2 Disember 2023

There are far more better free plugins then WPGlobus. One big minus is how it works
by adding {} language tags, then they do not bother to fix massive fixes like critical
error conflict with latest Elementor versions.

 [geekery](https://profiles.wordpress.org/geekery/) 21 Disember 2022

There’s no way to show the language switcher in the new themes, and the current 
tutorial says to add as a widget. There’s no more widget support in wordpress. This
plugin is very complicated to use.
