Learn how to translate Rank Math with WPML. Translate all SEO attributes including titles, meta descriptions, permalinks, and more.

Getting Started

To translate Rank Math with WPML, you need the following plugins:

Translate On-Page SEO Attributes

WPML can translate all on-page SEO attributes. This includes:

  • Page titles
  • Meta descriptions
  • Breadcrumbs
  • Image ALT and captions
  • Permalinks
  • And more…

WPML currently doesn’t support custom permalink features for translation. For example, using the Rank Math setting to remove a category base from URLs will cause them to not be translated properly. Before you decide to use this setting, check out our workaround for removing a category base from URLs or contact our support.

To translate on-page SEO attributes with WPML, simply send your content for translation. WPML translates attributes along with the page or post they’re associated with.

To translate global SEO texts, like the breadcrumbs’ homepage label, follow these steps:

  1. Go to WPMLTranslation Management.
  2. Scroll down to the Other texts (Strings) section and search for your texts.
  3. Select your texts and send them for translation.

How Sitemaps Work With WPML

By default, WPML automatically creates additional sitemaps for each language on your website. This ensures Google can easily understand your website’s organization, and properly serve the right page version in each language.

WPML handles multilingual sitemaps and hreflang tags automatically. You don’t need to take any action.
