You can translate all taxonomy terms at once by assigning them to a temporary post or page and sending it to translation.

This FAQ covers a workaround for translating multiple taxonomy terms at once. For full information about translating taxonomies with WPML, visit our complete taxonomy translation guide.

To translate all taxonomy terms at once:

  1. Create a temporary page or post and assign it all the taxonomy terms you want to translate.

WPML will now translate your taxonomies along with the post. Once done, you can delete the temporary post.
