Getting Started

Start by installing and activating the following:

If you’re new to WPML, check out our Getting Started Guide. It quickly walks you through the setup steps and how to translate content.

Translating Your SEO Title and Meta Descriptions

All in One SEO allows you to decide between using smart tags or entering text in the Title and Meta Description fields. For example, you can add the tag “Page Date” in your meta description, or write the date manually.

To rank higher in searches in different languages, we suggest adding text manually.

After you’ve set up the SEO options for your default language page, translating them is simple.

Using the Translation Dashboard

The central place for translations is the Translation Dashboard.

1. Go to WPML → Translation Dashboard, expand the different sections and select as many items as you want. The Dashboard allows you to translate multiple posts, pages, products (if you’re using WooCommerce), and strings at once.

Once you’ve selected what you want to translate, click on Translate your content.

    2. At step 2, select your translation method and then click Translate

    Translate automatically with WPML’s AI, PTC, is the recommended method for accurate bulk translations. WPML will then translate the content of the page along with meta-data added with AIOSEO.

    If you want to translate yourself, select the Translate myself option and send the content to translation from the Dashboard. Then, go to WPML → Translations and click Translate next to the content.

    This will open the Advanced Translation Editor where you can add your translations (or translate automatically). The AIOSEO fields appear as Custom Fields.
