Multisite Language Switcher

Von Dennis Ploetner

Beschreibung

A simple, powerful and easy to use plugin that will add multilingual support to a WordPress multisite
installation, i.e. multiple subdomains or folders (if you need to set up multiple sites across multiple domains, you’ll also want to use the WordPress MU
Domain Mapping plugin as well – as long as the domains are all hosted on the same server.).

The Multisite Language Switcher enables you to manage translations of posts, pages, custom post types, categories, tags and custom taxonomies.

The plugin uses flag-icons from FamFamFam. Thanks to Mark James for his great work. In addition I would like to thank Jürgen Mayer for creating the plugin’s banner.

Please, don’t forget to rate this plugin! 🙂

Übersetzer

Thanks to all translators for their great work.

If you have created your own language pack, or have an update of an existing one, you can send me your gettext PO and MO so that I can
bundle it into the Multisite Language Switcher. You can download the latest POT file
from here.

Installation

  • Download the plugin and uncompress it with your preferred unzip programme
  • Copy the entire directory in your plugin directory of your WordPress blog (/wp-content/plugins)
  • Activate the plugin in your plugin administration page (by the network administrator on all the blogs or by the root blog administrator for each particular blog).
  • You need to activate the plugin once in each blog, set the configuration in Settings -> Multisite Language Switcher

Now you can:

  • connect your translated pages and posts in Posts -> Edit or Page -> Edit
  • connect your translated categories and tags in Posts -> Categories or Post -> Tags
  • connect your Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies across languages
  • use the widget, the Gutenberg block, the shortcode [sc_msls] and/or a content_filter which displays a hint to the user if a translation is available
  • find also a shortcode for the widget [sc_msls_widget]
  • optionally you can place the code <?php if ( function_exists( 'the_msls' ) ) the_msls(); ?> directly in your theme files

FAQ

I have no language options in the General settings.

You might read first WordPress in your language.

But I’d like the interface to stay in English.

You can choose the language of the dashboard in the settings of your user profile.

Do I really need a multisite?

It’s up to you – of course. But yes, if you want to use the Multisite Language Switcher.

How can I automatically redirect users based on the browser language?

The Multisite Language Switcher does not redirect the users automatically. I’m not sure if the plugin should do that. You might check out this jQuery plugin or this approach with a theme
if you need such functionality.

How can I add the Multisite Language Switcher to the nav-menu of my blog?

Please check the add-on MslsMenu out.

I want to have the languages in an HTML select. How can I do that?

Please check the add-on MslsSelect out.

I don’t want to upload the same media files for every site. What can I do?

You could try the plugin Network Shared Media. It adds a new tab to the „Add Media“ window, allowing you to access the media files in the other sites in your multisite.

Is there a function I can call to get the language of the page the user is currently viewing?

Yes, you should use the WordPress API function get_locale() but you could also use code like that

use lloc\Msls\MslsBlogCollection;

$blog     = MslsBlogCollection::instance()->get_current_blog();
$language = $blog->get_language();

How can I move from WPML to MSLS?

There is a plugin which comes handy in here.

From MultilingualPress to Multisite Language Switcher

17. November 2021
Great plugin, does what it says it does. For MultilingualPress users: you can switch to this plugin without any problems. Be sure to read the documentation before you start. Another plugin from the same developer can be very useful for putting the language selector in your menu. See mslsmenu plugin Thanks Dennis

The prefect, simple solution!

28. Januar 2021
I have been using this plugin in combination with MslsMenu for more than 7 years now. For me this is a simple, yet absolutely perfect solution for any multilingual WordPress site. Very easy to use. Easily linking cross-blog pages together without having to worry about any third-party plugin compatibility. Its simplicity allows website admins full control over the content of each individual blog. Perfect if not all your blogs offer the exact same content, like country-restricted services such as gift cards or house calls or payment methods. WordPress MultiSite handles all settings per blog and with MultiSite Language Switcher you can use different date/time formatting, even different email addresses, etc. tailored to the blog's locale. Thank you very much for providing the perfect solution, Dennis!

The only choice for multisite blogs

13. August 2020
Literally the only tool, that allows for implementing proper hreflangs in all posts, pages, tags and categories. Language selector block and menu from the other addons are great as well. The only thing that seems not to be doing anything is "available translations hints" option, but still it's a 5 star plugin.

Amazing Plugin!

10. August 2020
Connects my 2 sites perfectly and quickly. It was super easy to install and the font type and font colour and flags can be all customised. The support I got was also amazing.
