Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Advanced Translation Editor available in all plans?

The Advanced Translation Editor is only available in the Multilingual CMS and Multilingual Agency plans. If you’re using the Multilingual Blog plan, you need to upgrade your account. 

Can I use the Advanced Translation Editor for pages I translated using another method?

Using the Advanced Translation Editor on pages you previously translated by other methods (e.g. translation services, the Classic Translation Editor, or local translators) may lead to issues such as missing translations.

To avoid these issues, we recommend using the Advanced Translation Editor only for pages that you haven’t translated yet. Alternatively, you can retranslate your existing pages using the Advanced Translation Editor. Doing so with automatic translation is quick and easy.
