We just released WPML 5.0. It gives you one place to run everything, translates your whole site while you do other things, and with PTC it bills each page once, so your later edits are free.
Our analysis of 60,000+ WordPress plugins and themes shows community translation covers under 5% of needs in 40 languages.
After many years, we’ve closed the WPML Contractors system.
