Translate More Than Posts and Pages
Creating a multilingual website involves more than translating articles and page content.
Visitors may also encounter buttons, form labels, widget headings, theme messages, plugin text, and other interface elements. Leaving these strings in the original language can make an otherwise translated website feel incomplete.
WPML String Translation helps bring supported interface text into the multilingual workflow so you can provide a more consistent experience across different languages.
