Running Multilingual Sites with AIOSEOP2 and WPML

We’ve put together a quick guide, to help you translate everything, allowing fully multilingual and SEO-optimized sites. Read on!

Translating the Title, Description and Keywords for the Home Page

After installing AIOSEOP go into the Settings option to adjust the title, description and keywords for the home page.

Since these strings are site-wide and don’t belong to any specific post, you can translate them using WPML’s String Translation module. Go to WPML->String Translation and look for the context admin_texts_plugin_all-in-one-seo-pack-pro (sorry for making it so long, we wanted to make sure it’s unique).

Translating the Title, Description and Keywords of Content

AIOSEOP lets you personalize the Title, Description and Keywords of each post of any type you choose. For these posts you will see a box like the one below while editing:

Per-post SEO settings

As you very well know, WPML creates a new post for each language, so translating these is trivial. Go to each of the translated posts and enter the different SEO texts.

Per-Language Sitemaps

A sitemap is an XML file that contains the structure of our site for search engines to index it better. For a multilingual site we will need to have a separate sitemap files for each language. We made this possible by using the URL structure used by WPML for the sitemap too. So, for example, if we have our languages in different folders, our sitemap urls would be:

http://mysite.com/sitemap.xml
http://mysite.com/es/sitemap.xml
http://mysite.com/de/sitemap.xml
etc.

Per-language sitemaps are especially important when you’re running languages in different domains. Google doesn’t really care that different domains come from the same WordPress database and wants requires you to submit a different sitemap for each domain. Now, that’s easy to do, since AIOSEOP produces these sitemaps separately for each language.

Translating via WPML’s Translation Editor

This version of AIOSEOP ships with a language configuration file, so WPML knows already what requires translation.

When you send content to translation using the Translation Dashboard, WPML will already include the SEO attributes along with the content. Translators will see the title, body and all SEO fields for translation.
