WordPress is the most used CMS in the world

 

50% of websites are based on CMS and 30% of them use WordPress. In fact, WordPress’s market share among CMS is around 60%. You can’t argue with numbers like those.

Naturally, your website has been made with WordPress. This reflects its drive for perfection: it bolsters your position in the local market as the ideal way for displaying your services. But now it’s time to go further. Internationalisation is key for growing your business and, to do this, you need to make the leap to having a multi-language online channel. However…

What problems do you normally face when translating your WordPress site?

  • You didn’t know how to extract the content from your website in an agile manner to request quotes for translation.
  • You also don’t have time to copy and paste it all into a Word document by hand.
  • However, you’re also concerned about giving third parties access to the back end of your website and relinquishing control.
  • Let’s not even start on uploading the translations… How would you know where to upload each text?

Thanks to two things: compatibility with XLIFF files with CAT tools and outsourcing the work to a professional translation agency.

CAT software allows us to analyse the internal repetitions in file and work with translation memories. Thanks to this first function, here at Ontranslation we can cut the cost of your transslation: translation memories contain segments that have already been translated for each client and automatically detect fragments of content that previously been translated.

If you need to update a page that’s already been translated with a few new changes, you’ll only pay for the completely new content.

You’ll get maximum compatibility with WPML

WordPress translation with WPML is based around the XLIFF format. This XML-based format is used specifically for localising websites and is the standard for the sector. In other words, WordPress sited are translated using WPML through archives that are compatible with all the most used computer-assisted translation (CAT) tools in the industry such as SDL Trados and OmegaT.

As a result, you’ll get documents that keep all of the information on your pages: sometimesthe most chaotic moment in web translation projects is uploading the translated content. There could be problems with the format, a loss of the original design, etc. With the XLIFF file generated by WPML, this is now just a thing of the past.

These are specifically designed to keep all the information and, most importantly, upload it back onto your website automatically. In just one click! You get maximum efficiency by minimising any subsequent work for editing and galley proofs. What’s more, you can ensure that all the content you need gets translated.

Everything is within your reach

Manually exporting the content from a WordPress involves two fundamental problems.

Firstly, it’s slow and tedious. Secondly, it’s easy to forget to extract an important part or you might not be able to find it, meaning that it doesn’t get translated. This is particularly likely when it comes to strings and other content that is difficult to access. This kind of text tends to be difficult to access at the back end if you don’t have expert knowledge.

At the same time, this content is normally on plain view for people browsing your website (in footers, warnings, pop-up messages, etc.). Fortunately, WordPress translation with WPML makes this much simpler. The WPML dashboard allows you to select all the content you want to translate and doesn’t leave anything out. It breaks it down into sections that you can easily select with just a click. If you select everything, you can make sure that it all gets translated without any issues.
