It was built for teams who need more than a handful of translations. Many popular translation plugins work well for a few languages, then become hard to manage as the language list grows. Evertongue keeps the workflow intentionally simple: real WordPress pages and posts, predictable language URLs, focused string translation, and switchers that remain usable when your audience spans dozens of languages. Inspired by Revelation 5:9, “every tribe and tongue and people and nation,” Evertongue is for mission-driven teams working to make their message accessible to a global audience. #### What Evertongue does * Translate pages and posts as whole posts using the standard Gutenberg/classic editor * Translate theme/site strings captured at runtime via the gettext filter * Default language at the site root, others under `/{code}/` * Identical slugs across every language for a given page or post * Auto-swapping menu items with fallback to the default language * `evertongue_switcher()` template tag with list or searchable combobox * hreflang alternate links and og:locale metadata on translated pages and posts * WPML and Polylang importers for migrating languages, content, and strings * PO file export/import for round-tripping strings #### What Evertongue does not try to be Evertongue is not an all-in-one localization suite. It does not try to handle every edge case, automatic translation workflow, or site-specific integration inside the core plugin. The goal is a clean foundation for multilingual content that stays understandable, maintainable, and fast as your language count grows. ### Usage Add languages under Evertongue Languages. Configure your default. Translate pages and posts from the editor sidebar (Gutenberg) or side meta box (Classic). Render the language switcher in your theme: ``` ``` Use `style => 'combobox'` for a searchable dropdown. For users who prefer not to edit theme code, enable the floating button or footer list under Evertongue Settings Automatic switchers. ## Screenshots * [[ * Evertongue dashboard with language overview and go-live notice. * [[ * Languages screen with flags, sort order, and quick actions. * [[ * Page translation editing with searchable combobox. * [[ * Settings screen for switcher defaults and automatic switchers. * [[ * Front-end language switcher combobox on a translated page. ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/evertongue`, or install through the WordPress Plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin through the Plugins screen. 3. Open **Evertongue Languages** and add your languages, then set a default. 4. Use **Evertongue Settings** to configure switchers, SEO tags, and setup mode while you migrate content. 5. Translate pages and posts from the editor, or import existing translations under** Import / export**. 6. When you are ready for public multilingual URLs, turn off setup mode (or click ** Go live** on the dashboard notice). ## FAQ ### Does Evertongue work alongside WPML or Polylang? Yes, during migration. Setup mode keeps Evertongue’s front-end routing and string translation off while you import content. When WPML remains active after go-live, Evertongue automatically defers front-end behavior to avoid conflicts. However, Evertongue is designed to work independently, without other translation plugins active. ### Who can manage languages and imports? Users with the `evertongue_manage` capability (administrators by default) can manage languages, settings, and WPML/Polylang imports. Users with `evertongue_translate`( editors by default) can translate content, manage strings, and import PO files. ### What happens when I uninstall the plugin? By default, Evertongue leaves your languages, translations, and strings in the database. To remove all plugin data on uninstall, enable **Remove plugin data on uninstall** under Evertongue Settings before deleting the plugin. ### Where is the default language URL? The default language uses your normal site URLs at the root. Other languages are served under `/{language-code}/` with the same slug structure as the default. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Evertongue” is open source software.
