Enter translated title, excerpt and HTML content, save a private draft, review it, then publish its locale-prefixed URL, such as /fr/about/. #### Included features * Manual translations stored in your own WordPress database. * Optional WordPress Abilities for a connected AI/SI assistant to read allowed originals and save private translation drafts. Human publication remains in wp- admin. * Separate draft and published snapshots: saving a draft never replaces a live translation. * Private saved-HTML preview, recent revisions that can be recovered as new drafts, and explicit unpublish. * Source freshness labels and conflict detection if another editor changes the source or translation while a form is open. * Accessible, server-rendered language selector with links to published versions. It works without JavaScript. * Locale-specific HTML language/direction, canonical URLs and reciprocal hreflang links for published translations. * Temporary source redirect or real 404 for an unavailable translated URL. * Administrator JSON export of current snapshots and latest drafts, with source/ locale mapping. * Data retention on deactivation and uninstall by default, with separately confirmed deletion. There is no background automatic translation, direct provider connection, tracking, registration, paid unlock or mandatory credit link. Optional connected assistants can translate approved text on your explicit request; their accounts, processing and charges are separate. New installations suggest English (unless it is the source), Spanish, German, Japanese, French and Portuguese (Brazil) as targets; administrators can change the selection before publishing. #### Supported content and limits This release translates the title, excerpt and manually authored HTML/core block markup of public, unprotected Posts and Pages. It does not translate menus, archives, theme/plugin strings, builder metadata, custom post types, ecommerce data or private/ password-protected content. Use a separate translation for each target language. Pretty permalinks are required for localized routes. An existing Post or Page using a locale root path, such as /fr/, takes precedence; resolve that collision before using that language’s routes. Network activation is unsupported; activate separately on each multisite site. Saved previews render allowed HTML without executing shortcodes or dynamic blocks, and do not reproduce theme styling. Review source markup and dynamic content carefully before publishing. Excerpts and content can deliberately be empty in drafts; publication requires nonempty translated content. Each field has a technical 1 MiB safety limit. Canonical integration supports WordPress core and the tested Yoast SEO and Rank Math configurations. Do not enable multiple SEO canonical generators together. The plugin does not provide translated sitemaps, localized slugs, machine translation or automatic language redirects. Translated responses request no caching; configure any full-page cache/CDN to bypass locale-prefixed routes and purge old entries when source visibility or publication changes. #### Interface translation status The interface is translation-ready and includes a current translation template. This first release bundles no translated interface locale files; untranslated interface text uses English. The page-content languages you create are separate from interface translations. #### Optional AI/SI assistant workflow For MCP, open Plugins > Add Plugin, search for “MCP Adapter”, choose the plugin by WordPress.org, click Install Now, then Activate. Directory: https://wordpress. org/plugins/mcp-adapter/ . This installs the transport, not an AI client or its authentication. Manual translation and native Abilities do not require the adapter. On WordPress 6.9+ with the native Abilities API, enable AI/SI assistant translation in Settings and use the picker to select up to 20 public original Posts/Pages. Access is off by default. The connected WordPress user must have edit permission on each selected original; private, password-protected, draft, trashed, unsupported-type and content outside the chosen access scope is denied. The manual editor remains fully functional on WordPress 6.9+ without this integration. Connect a compatible authenticated client directly to the native Abilities REST API, or install the optional official WordPress MCP Adapter separately and use its client/authentication instructions: https://github.com/WordPress/mcp-adapter . Its default endpoint is /wp-json/mcp/mcp-adapter-default-server. This plugin does not install dependencies, provide an OAuth server or accept Site Manager relay tokens on that separate endpoint. For the verified native authentication path, go to Users > Profile > Application Passwords, enter a client name, click Add Application Password and copy the generated password immediately (it is shown once). In a compatible MCP client, configure HTTP Basic authentication over HTTPS with your WordPress username and that Application Password. It is not a bearer token or OAuth login. Store it privately in your client, never in URLs or prompts, and revoke it from Profile when no longer needed. The plugin does not create or store these credentials. The assistant discovers vwml/get-translation-context and vwml/save-translation-draft, reads one allowed original/target, translates the returned unit text and saves the exact unit map with its short-lived context token. The server assembles source-owned HTML and saves only a draft. Open the returned review URL, reload any old editor tabs, inspect the preview and publish manually when ready. Existing published translations stay unchanged. Expired, stale, wrong-user/site or revoked contexts fail; reread before retrying. The lightweight connector path accepts Classic HTML and common static core blocks. It preserves markup, link/image attributes, code, URLs and text containing shortcodes/ template placeholders; review these untranslated areas manually. Unknown/dynamic blocks use the manual editor. Technical safety bounds are one original per call, 32 KiB source, 100 text units, 8 KiB per unit and 128 KiB assembled draft. Nothing is silently truncated. There is no in-admin AI-provider Translate button, scheduled AI job or remote publication ability. Prompts can name an original URL, slug/page path, exact title or ID. The read ability accepts exactly one selector plus the target locale, with optional post_type (post or page). Lookup stays within approved content; duplicate matches require a URL/ ID or clarification. It never fetches a supplied URL or grants new access. Returned source identity lets the assistant confirm its match. Author-wide connector access is optional and off by default. It replaces the selected- ID list and allows only public, unprotected Posts/Pages authored by the authenticated WordPress account (including future content). Test selected originals first. Abilities resolve one allowed original and save private drafts only. Use Review translations to find drafts awaiting publication or check published versions by publication date. AI/SI labels mean artificial intelligence / super intelligence and do not certify any client capability. ### Privacy The plugin stores configured languages, translation drafts/public snapshots, revisions with editor user IDs and timestamps, and a bounded local administration activity history. It makes no external service requests, records no visitor metrics, and sets no tracking cookies. Optional AI/SI assistants can request allowed source text only after administrator opt-in and WordPress authorization; their processing is covered by their own service policies. Export is administrator-only and checks edit permission on each source; credentials and visitor data are excluded. If upgrading an earlier development build, existing provider credentials and legacy operational tables are retained but unused. They are never contacted or included in translation exports. The explicitly confirmed uninstall deletion option removes both current and legacy plugin data. Keep sensitive server configuration outside the plugin folder. ### External services The plugin makes no external service requests itself. The optional official MCP Adapter operates on your WordPress site and is documented at https://github.com/ WordPress/mcp-adapter . When you request translation through a connected assistant, allowed original text is returned to that client; its configured AI provider may process the text and charge for it. The client/provider is chosen and configured by you, not selected or contacted by this plugin. Review that service’s processing, privacy policy, terms and costs before connecting; disabling access stops subsequent translator ability calls. The plugin does not collect or store their keys, register an account, send telemetry or share visitor data. ## Installation Upgrading from the previous development name: deactivate the previous VideoWhisper translator, install/activate this plugin and retain the database. Both identities share translation data; do not enable uninstall deletion or uninstall the old copy to migrate. Public locale URLs, shortcode and vwml ability names are unchanged. Discovery REST routes now use /wp-json/videowhisper-agentic-multilingual-translator/ v1/. 1. Upload the ZIP through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, or copy the plugin folder into wp-content/plugins/. 2. Activate VideoWhisper Agentic Multilingual Translator on the intended site. 3. Open Agentic Translator > Settings. Confirm the source language, select targets and save. Configure a pretty permalink structure if needed. 4. Open a public Post or Page and use its Multilingual translations panel, or select its title and target in Agentic Translator > Translation editor. 5. Enter translated fields, Save draft and review the private preview. Publish translation when ready. 6. Add [vwml_language_selector] to the source content or a Shortcode widget. It displays published languages only. 7. Before removing data, download a JSON export from Settings and keep a database backup for complete revision history. ## FAQ ### Does it automatically translate my site? Manual translation always works without another plugin. Optionally enable WordPress Abilities so your connected AI/SI assistant can translate selected text into drafts. This is an explicit assistant workflow, not automatic background translation. The plugin itself does not call translation providers. ### Where do translations live? In custom tables in this site’s WordPress database. Disconnecting accounts has no effect because none are required. JSON export contains the current snapshot and latest draft; a full database backup preserves every historical revision. ### What happens when I change the original? The existing translation is retained and marked stale. A form opened before a source or target change is rejected rather than overwriting newer work. Use the browser Back button to copy unsaved edits, then reload and review the current version. ### Can I remove a public translation without deleting it? Yes. Open it in the translation editor and choose Unpublish. Its content and revisions remain available, and its public link disappears. Deselecting a target language alone retains its existing published pages and stops new edits. ### Can I translate protected content? No. A source becoming private, draft, trashed or password-protected immediately becomes ineligible for translation overlays and public variant discovery. External caches must also be purged. ### Which shortcodes and APIs are included? [vwml_language_selector] and [videowhisper_language_selector] show the current page’s published versions. Use post_id=”123″ outside a singular page. The public read-only REST namespace is videowhisper-agentic-multilingual-translator/v1, with /languages and /variants/{post_id}. Operational /status is administrator-only. When an administrator opts in on a supported WordPress version, native abilities vwml/get-translation- context and vwml/save-translation-draft are available to authenticated clients. An optional MCP Adapter can expose the same abilities; this plugin adds no separate MCP endpoint. No publication ability is exposed. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “VideoWhisper Agentic Multilingual Translator” is open source software.
