Démarrer avec POEditor

In order to send files for translation to POEditor, you first have to login to your wpml.org account, and download and install the following plugins on your website:

  • WPML Multilingual CMS: This is the core plugin.
  • WPML Translation Management: This plugin will allow you to connect to POEditor.
  • WPML String Translation: This plugin will allow you to translate interface strings.

If you do not have a wpml.org account, you can create one by simply choosing between our WPML Multilingual CMS or Multilingual CMS Lifetime plans.

Once you have access to your wpml.org account, you can refer to our detailed step-by-step guide on how to download and install WPML. Please remember to register your website to receive automatic updates and gain access to POEditor services.
