Go-Global Program

We think that multilingual should be a basic feature for any WordPress theme and we’re willing to spend every effort to make it happen.

Our Go-Global helps turn WordPress themes into fully multilingual-ready. When we’re done, your clients can use the theme on multilingual sites, easily and smoothly.

How it Works

We’ll set up a test server, install your theme and WPML and go through everything.

All you’ll need to do is work with our developers to iron-out any issues that we find. If there’s something that needs fixing in WPML, we’ll do it. If we find issues in the theme, we’ll need your help to make the adjustments.

You Get Happier Clients

By helping you turn your themes into 100% multilingual-ready, we make it easier for all of us. When your clients run multilingual sites, they require less support from us and from you. This way, instead of supporting dozens of web-developers, who use your theme, we take care of everything with you.

It’s a win-win-win situation. You get more sales, WPML sells more and the clients receive better products.

How do I Get Started?

Tell us about your theme and we’ll create a free account for you, so that you can download WPML and participate in our forum. You’ll work directly with WPML’s developers and your theme can be multilingual-ready in a few days.

1. Original theme authors only

2. Public themes only (not for “work-for-hire”)


  • We are handling request #122 now. There are 153 requests in the queue.

How it Works

  1. Contact us and apply.
  2. We create your account for WPML.org, so that you can download the recent versions of WPML.
  3. Send us your theme(s).
  4. We install it on a private test server and give you Admin access. Together, we’ll review everything and make sure that the theme and WPML play nice.
  5. We extract the texts and translate them. During this process, some additional work may be needed to improve gettext wrapping for optimal localization.
  6. We add your theme to our theme compatibility page and you can announce it’s multilingual-ready.
