Important Notes: please read first! These notes apply to both WPGlobus (free) and TIV Globus (Pro).

NO AUTOMATIC TRANSLATION:

The plugin does NOT translate texts automatically! You translate texts manually.

IF YOU UNINSTALL, YOU MUST REMOVE THE EXTRA LANGUAGES:

All translations are stored together in a special format: {:en}English{:}{:fr}French{:}{:es}Spanish{:}. If the plugin is not active, every language shows at once and your site becomes unreadable. Before you deactivate and uninstall, you must run the cleanup tool to remove all languages but one. See the details in the plugin’s settings.

PAGE BUILDERS / COMPOSERS:

Page-builder support is available only in TIV Globus (Pro).

COOKIES:

The plugin uses a browser cookie to remember your language preference. It stores only the language code (such as en or es) – no personal information.

MULTISITE:

The multisite mode (multiple virtual sites sharing a single WordPress installation) is not tested and not officially supported. It may still work, but use it at your own discretion.

Compatibility with themes and plugins WPGlobus works with any theme or plugin that passes its text through the standard WordPress filters before displaying it – which covers the large majority of them.

Some add-ons that render their own output (sliders, forms, page composers, and the like) are not always multilingual-ready. When you find an element that will not translate, please let its author know – the fix is usually small.

We test against many popular themes and plugins and follow their updates as closely as we can. Since third-party code changes frequently, an occasional tweak on our side may be needed after an update.

Permalinks WPGlobus needs “pretty” permalinks. Go to Settings -> Permalinks and pick any structure other than “Plain” (with no index.php in it) – URLs like example.com/?p=123 will not work.

WooCommerce: set your store bases explicitly (for example, Shop Base /product/). If you leave them blank, WooCommerce may translate the base itself (e.g. /produkt/ for German), causing 404 errors.
