MarketPress Multilingual
Having installed WPML and WPML-MarketPress plugin you can get MarketPress fully multilingual.
You can translate Products, Product categories and Product tags. Also you can have complete UI translated, custom URL slugs, emails, messages…
To have MarketPress turned multilingual follow these steps:
- Install MarketPress 2.1.2 or above
- Install WPML 2.3.3 or above
- Install WPML-Marketpress
Now, you can translate the products and categories.
The String Translation module lets you translate texts that are not part of any product:
- Translate MarketPress UI strings after scanning plugin with WPML, context: plugin marketpress
- Translate MarketPress slugs (Products->Store Settings->Presentation) (example: /store/products/ to /compra/productos/), context: plugin marketpress slugs
- Translate MarketPress email contents (Products->Store Settings->Messages) that are sent by MP, context: plugin marketpress emails
- Translate MarketPress editable messages (Products->Store Settings->Messages), context: plugin marketpress messages
By default these custom type and custom taxonomies are set as translatable:
Products, Product category and Product tag.
Also, following custom fields are set to be copied from original to translated product: SKU, price, sale price, product link, file, sales count, shipping, variations, mp_is_sale, mp_track_inventory, mp_inventory.
If you want to change those settings, edit this file:
wp-content/plugins/wpml-marketpress/xml-config.xml
Change custom-field’s action property to: translate or ignore.

Hi, I didn’t understand if I HAVE to buy Multilingual CMS package or if Multilingual Blog is okay.
This plugin requires features available in the Multilingual CMS package.
Downloaded marketpress I want a shopping cart for secure digital downloads.
Having problems with market press it does not secure the download.
It doesn’t allow me to limit 1 download per purchase.
IS there soemhting that we should look at or can you referr me to a software plugin the works with pay pal and secures my digitals products for purchase?
So far We have tried. wp ecommerce, dippsy, and now marketpress.
the other two locked up my access and block entrance into the site.
Put a lot of time into this so far with no results. Site looks good but still doesn’t work for me.
Plugins for members only keeps disappearing. Sign in on download for free preview is also turned off or disappeared.
Any suggestions. WE have had a 1 hour of live chats to resolve some of the issues however, those resolutions have turned off other plugins.
I thought wordpress was to be an easy content managament system.
Please help.

I think that all these issues are related with the e-commerce plugins and not so much with WPML.
I would suggest that you choose one that’s closest to what you’re looking for and then hire a developer who would help you add the functionality that you’re missing.
Hi!
Does WPML cover MarketPress’ checkout process?
I’d like to get the whole purchase flow translated too – cart, checkout, etc.
Thanks,

Yes, WPML translates everything that MarketPress does, including the checkout and purchase confirmation emails.
Have a look here:

Thanks!
Seems like a few strings are missing, but that’s easy enough to sort out.
