OK .

I can close this and I can close this .

Who are you going to build multi lingual sites for , for myself ?

How do you rate your development skills ?

You know , I think this is all basic .

I click on save preferences first , I can go to my account settings and I can create a new password , save the settings .

Awesome .

Then I go to my account or I go to downloads over here or over here .

Ok .

There are four files I want to install those four .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

This is the core plug in and those are a few plugins that will help you to translate your complete website , not only the text , but also plugins , themes , everything in your website .

So I download them all .

I click over here , the second one , the third one and the fourth one .

So here they are .

And now I want to go to my website that I want to make Multilingual .

I go to David Corp dot com and this website is in English and I want to translate it to Dutch .

So I will show you step by step how you can do it for your website .

The first thing I want to do , I want to log in .

So I go to WP admin and I log in .

So now I'm at the back end of my website , I go to plugins at new , I click on upload and I click on choose file and I want to upload those four files .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So the first one install and I don't activate it yet because I want to add a few different plugins .

Ok .

Now I click on add new again over here at plugins , upload plug in , choose file .

And I go for the second one , I open it and I click on install now .

Then I do the same with the third , I click on add new upload plug in .

Choose a file , go to the third one open install now and the fourth one add new upload plug in , choose a file and the fourth one open and install .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Now , since we have done that I can go to plugins , I scroll down and I see four inactive plugins that start with W PM L , I select them all 1234 , I scroll up and over here at B actions I click on it and I click on activate , apply .

So I will activate all those four plugins at the same time .

Awesome .

Now I can close this .

And what I like to do in the beginning is configure W PM L .

If you don't see that you can go over here to W PM L click on it and this is the same set up .

So let's configure our W PM L plug in .

What is the main language of your website at this moment ?

Is it English ?

Is it Dutch ?

Is it Chinese ?

Well , mine is English .

So I leave it over here and then I click on next .

What other languages do you want to add to your website ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Well , I want to add a Dutch language so I select it over here , but you can also select multiple languages .

So maybe Portuguese Romanian , but I will leave it over here at Dutch and English .

I click on next and we can also change this later .

So you can add a third language for now .

I want to have two languages .

Then we go to the third option , the language switcher option and this is what you will see .

Let me show you on your website .

Let me tell you that I use the free theme in this tutorial and the free element of page builder .

And if you want to know how to make this website exactly like I have done , you can go to youtube dot com and search for 2019 and it is this one word press tutorial for beginners .

And there I will show you step by step how you can make this website .

So what I said , this area will appear right from contact and we can configure that .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So in that way , people can easily choose the language of the website over here .

Well , we can configure this .

And before we do that , we need to choose how to handle the languages without translation .

So at this moment , nothing in our website is translated .

So at this moment , the website is English .

So if I would go to the block page and I go to a blog post and I think I want to watch this blog post in Dutch .

So I click on the Dutch flag and the question is what should happen if this page is not translated in Dutch ?

Should it skip the language ?

So stay in English or should it go back to the Dutch home page ?

So I would say skip the language .

So you will see no flag over here that there is an option for the Dutch language .

And the other option is that there is a flag .

But if you click on the flag , you go to the touch home page .

So I click on skip language and then we have the language switcher so we can configure this still .

So I click over here and you see a preview which is really nice .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I need to choose a menu .

Well , I will choose the main menu over here .

That's the only menu I have .

So I select the main menu and the position of the menu .

Do we want to have it here at the left or here at the right ?

I want to have it after the last menu item .

Do I want to have a drop down like this or a list of languages ?

So now they are next to each other .

And I prefer that what I do not like is that there is no flag and only text in the native language , native lands and in English , Dutch and also here both in the native language .

So how can we configure this even further here ?

It says what to include in the language switcher ?

Well , I like to have the flag .

People recognize it immediately that this is from the Netherlands or that this is English .

And here we see the Dutch words for Dutch , which is Netherlands and we can remove that so I can say remove the native language name .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So people will see only Dutch or English .

I think it will be better if they see their own language .

So it would say Netherlands over here instead of Dutch .

So I can turn it on and then I can turn this one off language name in current language .

So now it says Netherlands and English .

And the question is , do I want to see English when the website is already in English ?

Yes , I prefer that .

And I want to remove the native language name .

So at this moment , you only see the Dutch flag and the English flag .

And if I would say , I don't want to see the current language , that means when I'm on a Dutch page , you only see the English flag .

And when I'm on the English page , you only see the Dutch flag .

Well , I like to have both of them .

And then over here we can select the color themes , clear all colors , but it has to do with the text .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So I can say gray and then there are less options , it looks like this or we can say blue .

So there are a few things we can do if I click over here and clear all colors .

That means that I can decide which color I want to show like that .

And when I hover over it , I want it to be blue for instance , or green .

So when I hover over the current language , it becomes green .

So you can change the background .

I can show you quickly really ugly and then we can make this white and the other language .

How about purple ?

So we can do a few things over here , but I prefer not to use it .

I want to remove the name , the native language name and then we still see the backgrounds and I don't want that .

So I remove it by clicking on clear over here .

Clear over here , Claire .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

But you can play around with that if you want to , I click on save .

So awesome .

So we've configured it and I like it .

We have also the widget language Twitcher .

That means that if you have a blog post like this , you see it over here .

So you can do that , choose a widget area .

I can say the main sidebar or I can choose a widget area in the footer , which is over here .

So maybe over here about us , I think I want to play that area one as a drop down or a vertical list .

And then we can do the same things again and a flag use the native language and I turned this off like that .

We can give it a title and we can change the colors .

But I like to keep it as it is .

I click on save and it should appear over here when we have saved everything .

Do I want to show the footer language switcher in the footer ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

If I turn his arm and I save it , it would show up here below this footer .

I will turn it all on to show you how it looks .

Do I want to have links to translations of posts ?

So that means that here above in the blog post , it will say this blog is also available in Dutch .

Well , let's turn it on and I can change the text .

I want to show the flag .

Of course , remove the language name in the current language .

This post is also available in Netherlands above the post or below the post and then we can change the text over here .

Save it .

OK , I click on next .

Now it will save everything we just configured .

But if we refresh the page .

We see nothing yet because we have not yet registered our plug in .

We will do that in a few seconds .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So over here , do we want to help W PM L to make this product better ?

Yes .

So I can say send theme and plug in information in order to get faster support and comp alerts .

Yes .

And if you don't want to just say , don't send information and skip comp alerts , I click on next .

And now we need to register our website .

We can do that over here .

W PM L dot org .

Go to your account and then go to my account over here when you have over 30 K or your account .

And then we see this overview and here at sites we can manage our sites and here it says your account allows you to use W PM L on three sites and then we can upgrade over here if we want to , I click on sites .

And over here I can add a new site .

So I click over here the site .

L I can copy and paste it .

I only need this part until dot com base it .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Edit .

OK .

Then I have the key over here .

I click on show key copy , double click , command C or control C on a PC or right mouse click and copy .

And then I go to languages and I paste the key over here and then I click on register and after that , I click on finish .

So now we've set up our W PM L plug in .

So let's see what happens when we refresh the page .

Come on R and now we see over here we have English and since this page is not in Dutch , there's no Dutch flag , that's also the reason why you don't see it over here and here below , we see English and here you also see English .

Well , I don't like this .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So what I can do now , I can go to widgets , then I go to foot widget area one and I can drag the language switcher over here , just release it and then it will be saved .

So right now it looks like this .

And since everything is in English also here and not in Dutch , you don't see the Dutch flag .

If I want to change the settings , we just have configured .

I can go to the back end , I can close this window now and then I scroll down and I go to languages here at W PM L .

So if I want to show the Dutch flag over here , although it's not translated in Dutch , let me show you we can do it over here and language L from .

So I go to WPL languages and then we see language switcher options and here I can say link to the home of the language for missing translation .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So if I would turn this on now , the saved if I refresh the page , you will also see the Dutch flag over here .

I think this looks beautiful .

You see it on the whole website .

If I go to contact , you see it .

If I go to a block page or to a block post , you still see it .

And if you have a menu that is sticky , you always see it also when you scroll down .

So I scroll down and you see it also over here and you see it also over here and over here .

Well , I don't want that .

So I go back uh I want to see it in the menu .

I do not want to see it in the widget so I can remove this .

Ok ?

I do not want to see it in the footer and I do not want to see it on the post .

Ok .

So I refreshed the page , you see it over here and you do not see it over here .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So that's perfect .

Ok ?

What else if I screw up what you see over here ?

Depending on all the plug ins you have , you have some extra W PM L components that will help you to translate a certain theme or a certain plug in .

So here it says to easily translate YSEO , you need to add the following W PM L components .

So I click on install and we leave this as this at this moment , we can see what other plugins we can install .

So if you use Woocommerce , you can install the Woocommerce plug in .

If you use gravity forms , you can select it while I use contact form seven .

Let me see .

I use milk chimp .

I use Yost and that's it .

So I select activate after download and I click on download .

So they are being installed and activated .

Ok , perfect .

Ok .

Then I need to do one other thing .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

If I go to W PM L languages , how it works .

When I'm on the home page , I see David Corp dot com .

And when I go to the Dutch home page , it will say David Corp dot com forward slash NL which stands for Netherlands .

But we need to configure it in a way that it will be shown like this .

So how can we do that ?

I scroll down and then here at language your L format , it says language name at as a parameter and that looks like that dot com .

Question mark lang equals an L and I would like to have it like this different languages in directories , Daves Corp dot com in English and David Corp dot com forward slash N in Dutch .

And you can also use a directory for the default language , which I do not do because I think if the website is English by default , it should just be Dave Corp dot com and not YN after it , I save it .

And when I've saved it , I also need to rewrite my Perma links by clicking here .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And if you don't see this , you can go to settings Perma links and I use post name always and I click on save changes and I always say it twice .

So I click over here , save changes .

OK ?

I go back to W PM L and here it says a warmer step .

Before you can translate on elementary .

You need to enable W PM L's translation editor to translate conveniently enable it now .

Awesome .

It is done .

I close this , it will be closed .

And then over here it says click here to finish the set up .

It's still not finished .

It says if that's the case .

Let me see .

Yeah , we need to click over here and now it is complete .

So what we can do over here at media translation , we can give everything a Dutch title .

So all these images and to be honest , I don't want to do that .

I want to do that in the page itself .

So I will skip this part .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

But if you want to do that , you can click over here , see the image in English , click on the plus below the Dutch flag in my case .

And then here it says and here I say or pursue the slash is actually exactly the same .

So maybe it's not a good example .

I click on cancel , I click over here and I say business photo and I copy it and I paste it safe media translation .

What you see now is this icon .

So it changed .

So it's now already translated .

Let's do another example over here .

And if I want to use the same , I can just click over here and we'll be base it .

And here I would like to say good out photo Westland , save media translation .

And then that way you can translate all the media here at media translation .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So what I want to do now , I can go through websites and I can translate this website by clicking on edit page and then I can translate it .

But what I also can do and that's what I prefer .

I go to the back end , I close this , then I go to pages all pages .

And now over here , I see the Dutch flag and I can click on the plus .

So I go to the home page , front page elementary and I click on the plus to add a translation in Dutch .

And I will translate it manually .

And after that , I will show you how we can translate it automatically .

So how does it work ?

Really easy ?

Everything on my website , all the images have a title , all text and below that you see every text that is in English on this page and I can translate it to Dutch manually .

Since quite a few words are the same in Dutch as they are in English .

I can click over here for instance and then it copies the text from English to the Dutch translation .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And I can also do it with everything .

So I can say copy all fields from original and I want to do that and it says some are translated already .

Do you want to only copy to the fields that are empty over here at the right or overwrite everything ?

So if you have translated 50% to Dutch already , you would like to say copy only to the empty fields .

So now I can translate it .

This word is photo , I can copy his word based over here also here .

But I loved photography , studio , photo , photo .

And when it is translated , you need to check that over here .

And I would prefer to do it all at once .

But as far as I know that it is not possible .

So that's one thing I don't like , but it is better because in that way your work more secure .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So when I've translated something photo that's like smart , I check this , copy this base .

What's that ?

Check it ?

So I will fast forward and translate everything I see over here .

So until now I only changed images .

So now we go to the text of our website page builder , page six .

So media , that's the name of my company and I leave it as this .

But here I would like to say photo , film and web design and that's what you see over here .

So if I save it and I would go to the Dutch version , I would see photography , film and web design instead of photography .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So from this moment on , we can change all these things , but you don't have to change it in the editor , you can change it over here , which is far more easy get in contact name , contact up , check portfolio is OK , name , contact up , copy it , photo .

So I will fast forward again over here .

I see the text for the second time .

And why is that ?

You don't see that over here .

But for our mobile , we have a different style than this style .

So we duplicated this area and one area will only be shown on the desktop and another area will only be seen on a smartphone .

So that's why you see a double and W PM L keeps track of that .

So that is amazing .

So we can just focus on translating things and W PM L does all the hard work for us .

So it says 94% is complete .

Let me see .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Where did I forget something over here over here and over here , 98% .

And now it is 100% complete .

If it is not , it will not be shown .

So if I would turn this off and I click on save and I go to the home page and I refresh it and I click over here , it will not be shown only when I save 100% .

So I click on save and close .

And now when I refresh the beach and I click on the Dutch flag , it can be , it will not be shown .

Why is that ?

It has to do with the cache of your website .

You can say right mouse , click open link in incognito window .

And then we see David Corp dot com forward slash NL .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And now we see photography , name , contact , photography , film , web design and those text .

This is Dutch , this is Dutch and this is Dutch in the complete website is translated .

Well , what you see there are a few problems over here .

This is not full with here .

It says something went wrong and also this needs to be translated yet .

So those are the next steps .

But the page is translated to Dutch .

What we see over here is something we don't want .

So how can we fix that ?

We will fix a few things step by step .

I use the theme and when you translate a website , it gets this area .

How can you fix that ?

Maybe it's not related but elemental related .

What do we need to do ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

We go to all the pages or we go to the home page and we click on edit page , then we scroll down and we go to the page attributes and it says template , default template change that to element or with I click on update .

I view the page .

This looks normal in English , I go to the incognito window and I press enter over here to refresh it and now it is gone .

So that's how we can fix it .

So we need to change it in the English version , not in the Dutch version , but still over here .

Let me see there is this problem .

Why is this not showing ?

Well , since we are changing everything in the website , we also need to change other stuff than only the text .

And those are in this case , the blog post categories .

So how can we translate that ?

I go to the website to the back end .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I close this , I close this and now we can go over here to W PM L taxonomy translations .

So what are taxonomies ?

Let me show you a few examples , categories , text and translation priorities .

So if I would go to categories , it works a little bit the same .

I click on the plus and since everything is the same , I can change it , I translate it to Dutch and I click on save and now we see this icon which means it is already translated .

Same for personal person .

And then it grabs this automatically because this is a slack .

I don't need a description .

I save it .

The third one .

Self and safe .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

B safe and this one he got the Horry dash .

Save it .

So let's see if the blog post what we show .

Now , I go to the Incognito area page and I refresh it on R OK .

What else over here and here ?

Save it .

If I refresh this page and we select categories , they're all translated .

So if I click over here , you see it .

OK , perfect .

Then we go to the other ones .

Let me see .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Maybe the untranslated ones .

No , they're all translated .

Then we can go to , you can use in your blog posts and I have a few .

So those are the same film and hard Proverbs is spoken .

Save it now they can .

And then this one is actually the same .

Save it .

And then third one , let me see if everything is translated .

Yes , the third one translation priorities .

There's nothing found .

Here's one thing I save it .

OK ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So if I would go to boasts , get A I click on film and if I click on translations in Dutch , it is also a film .

So everything works .

I click on update .

So if I go to my incognito window and I refresh it , command shift R it is still not shown .

Why is that ?

Because there is no block post yet that is translated .

So let's translate a block post .

I go to all posts and let me see , there's a short one , oasis of the seas and I want to add that translation to Dutch .

So I will translate it .

This is the same , this is also the same .

I check this .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

You see it's a really short block post translation is complete .

So now 100% of our blog post is complete .

I click on save and close .

And now when I go to my Incognito area page , I refresh it .

And now you see one blog post only the image is not translated yet .

So let me see how we can fix that .

Then I go to the Dutch version and we can translate it using the translate editor from W PM L or edit it over here .

So I click on edit anyway .

And then here there's no featured image .

So I selected and I actually like this one select update .

So now I refreshed the page Anna is shown .

So it is the Dutch website .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

If I go to this blog post , it is in Dutch dot com forward slash NL and then the title of the Seas and then the Dutch text and the images .

This is Dutch .

This is not Dutch yet , but we can do that and that's how it works .

So on the Dutch website , this is the only blog post we see .

Why is that ?

Because it's the only one that is translated into Dutch .

So if I go to the contact page , for instance , I still see this flag .

I don't want that .

So I want to go back to the settings of W PM L by clicking here .

I scroll down and the language switch your option .

I want to skip the language when it is not in Dutch .

So if I would go to the contact page here .

You see it is in Dutch because this page is translated in Dutch .

But if I go to contact it is gone because it's not translated .

So my goal is to translate everything in this website .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And by the way , if a visitor from a different computer goes to David Corp dot com , then it works , he does not need to use a incognito page .

But it's because I use the website before I installed W PM L .

It is something with my cash but someone from a different computer will immediately see that this is all working .

So I thought , let's tell you that what we have done here at Block and Oasis of the Seas is we manually updated a new featured image for the Dutch blog post .

Well , if we have to do that on a page with seven on the blog post , it will take a lot of time .

So how can we do that automatically ?

Right now ?

I go to the Dutch website , you still see this .

So if I would go to the home page , you steal the image .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

But if you want to do that automatically , which will save you a lot of time , then you can go to the back end , go to W PM L settings and then I scroll down and I see all those links and I search for media translation over here and then I scroll down .

You can check if some attachments can be duplicated to translated content .

So here it says duplicate the featured image for translated content and we need to click on start to do that .

So I will translate one more blog post .

So I go to the website block .

This one is quite short .

So I click on this one .

So I go to the back end to posts all posts .

And I want to go to Montana , click on the plus and then I copy this and I type this text really quick .

OK ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Complete duplicate , complete , complete and then I copy this .

I paste it over here .

Translation is complete , save and close .

Now if I would go and refresh the page in Dutch , you don't see the image .

How can we fix it automatically ?

After you have created all the block posts , you can go to the back end to W PM L settings , search for media translation , click on it and click on start over here where I have selected to duplicate the featured image for translated content .

Awesome .

So now if I refresh the page , it is there .

How great is that ?

This will save you a lot of time .

So I go back to the website and right now you see two flags over here because this page is in Dutch .

And if I would go to block Montana , you also see two flags because it's in Dutch .

But if I would go to the contact page , you only see the English flag because it is not in Dutch .

So the goal is now to make everything in the website in Dutch , not only the pages , but also these areas over here .

So how can we do that ?

We can do it in the back end manually .

But I will also show you how we can do it automatically .

It will be translated automatically .

You can have up to 2000 words , be translated for you automatically .

And it is machine translating , but it's pretty good and then you can edit it yourself and save a lot of time .

So in order to do that , I go to the back end .

And the first thing I want to do , I want to activate that found translation editor .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I can do that at W PM L settings and then click over here how to translate posts and pages right now .

It says use WP MLS classic translation editor .

So until now we have translated everything ourselves using the classic translation editor .

But now I want to use the WP MS at F translation editor .

So I click here and then I click over here and then I can go to the advanced translation editor settings .

But before I do that over here , it says content that was created with the old editor , which we have done a page and a few posts , they still can use the W PM L's classic translation editor or we can say switch to the advanced translation editor , but then all translations may be unusable .

So I leave it as it is .

Then I click over here , advanced translation editor settings and I'm the only one that has access .

So if you want to assign someone else , it's really easy .

You can go to users at new and you can create a new one .

Josh , Josh , the translator at gmail dot com .

Josh , I the website doesn't matter , create a beautiful buzzword and send the user notification and this is the lowest function you can have and this is the highest function or the highest rank .

And if someone becomes an administrator , he has rights to do anything in the website .

So he can delete it like he can do a lot of stuff with it .

So I will make him an editor and then click on add new user .

Then he gets an email that he's an editor and then he will also be on the editor list .

I don't do that .

OK .

I go to translation management here in WBML and it says that we need to learn more about media translation .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I'm OK with that .

So I click and learn more and then I close it and then I close this and now it says that all those pages are not translated yet .

But if we go to the home page over here , it is translated .

So the about me page , the services , page photography , you can translate those all .

How can we do that I can click over here to select everything except for the home page because we translated it already .

And then I walked through all the pages , the template page .

I do not want to translate it .

The template example .

Hi there .

What's up now ?

All test pages podcast is a test page disclaimer .

Yes , the contact page , the blog page , the portfolio page , web design , film , photography services .

Yes , I want to send those all to the translation basket .

So here below , I can select to which language it should be translated .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And I click on add , selected content to translation basket .

We will not pay anything until 2000 words .

So now I need to go to the second step , which is the translation basket .

And here it says how many words there are .

So a total of 928 words .

So we still have some space to translate some other blog posts for instance .

So I go back to the first step and here it says select items for translation and we see only the pages .

So if I would change this to all the posts and I click on filter , we see all the posts .

Well , you see I've translated two already .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So if I would select those three and we can also select all the images and I say add selected content to the translation basket , then we go over here to the second step again .

And now it says a total amount of 2188 .

So I want to remove one blog post or one page .

Let me see .

I will remove this one about me .

I can't do that myself and then I will remove the disclaimer , another disclaimer film and photography .

So this is perfect .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So now I say send all items for translation and in doing that right now and it can take a minute and now it says that translators will have access to translate all the text .

We can go to translation rules .

Well , Josh is not here but I could add him and then I could assign translation services to him .

So if I would go to translation services , I can activate external people that can translate things for me or I can go to translation jobs .

And there I could assign all those pages to a certain user .

In this case , Josh , well , I want to do it myself now and then I want to make use of the advanced translation editor , which is an automatic machine translator .

So I select Corp .

So I click on assign and I will do that everywhere .

A sign , a sign , a sign .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And when I do that , I myself get an email , I just received it .

Let me read it to you .

It says a new translation job for photography , film , we design media .

So if I would edit Josh as a translator , he would get an email right now .

Hey , like , hey , there's a new job for you .

You can translate it and then he translates it and he saves it and then it will be translated in my website .

So that's how it works .

I assign myself a sign .

I go to the second page and I signed myself also over here .

Perfect .

Well , then I go to my email account and here it says new translation job from English to Dutch .

And see here that there are a lot of tasks for me to do and I can click on start translating or I go over here to W PM L to translations .

And here it says , waiting for the translator .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Well , I'm the translator .

I click on translate and this my friends is the advanced translation editor and it's translated automatically find out more about the best page bill for wordpress over the best page bill for wordpress .

Perfect .

This is translated perfectly so far .

And if I want to , I can change a few words .

And if I save it , it knows on the complete website that when I translate page builder , it will be the one I decide it will be .

But I think this is fine .

So if I think it's finished , I click on finish .

OK , I go back to the editor and all those words , I can translate them .

And if I translate them here , they will also be translated on other places in the website .

I think they're all fine .

Perfect .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I click on finish .

And I want to declare this job as complete .

And now it says it is complete .

So if I would go to the website , I go to block the element or page builder right now .

It says if I could use only one page builder and if I click over here , it says , so that was the advanced translation editor .

And if I want to edit this , now I can click on edit message or blog post and I can edit it anyway .

And then I can change things if I want to .

That is how I prefer to work .

So I click on update .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And if I want to speed this all a little bit up , I can go to W PM L Translation management and I go to all the posts and I select those two and this one with the image and I want to send it to the translation basket .

I want to go to the pages filter .

Let me see how about the about page with all the images , the serve the speech with all these images .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And let me see the block beach whereas it's here with all these images , add selected content to translation basket .

Now I go to the basket as I said before , I have 2000 words for free .

So I sent all items for translation .

Continue and there they are job waiting .

OK .

Then I go to the translations .

Let me show you , I click on take and translate .

I can click over here and think I want to add something Zain .

OK ?

And then I can translate things when I want to .

This all looks perfect .

Click on finish complete .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And then I go back to the editor automatically .

I go to the second one take and translate , finish it complete .

And then I go back to the editor , the third one , the block page .

And here I say check here , check and it says there's a spelling error but it's perfect .

So I say yes , OK , perfect .

Finish complete .

And I go back automatically .

Well , let me fast forward to do the rest .

Awesome .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So if I go to the website , incognito and I refresh the page , I should see three recent blog posts .

Yes , with images in Dutch .

And if I click on it , I go to the beach in Dutch .

Awesome .

So if I have more words than 2000 that I want to translate , this will happen , I go to translation management and I select everything or I can filter based on not translated filter .

I select them all except for the home page and I added him .

Then I go over here and what I see with this amount , I will probably reach more than 2000 words in total .

So let me see what happens , send all items for translation and then I probably need to upgrade .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So I go to translations and let me fast forward again and then it says you need more automatic translation words to translate this entire document .

So I need to buy more words .

How can I do that by clicking there ?

12,000 words for just $10 and 80,000 words for $50 .

So I will go for 12,000 extra words .

I click on buy now , I will fill in my details Corp media .

So I buy 20,000 words for $10 .

So it's even more words than 12,000 , I pay with card .

So now it says I have more than 20,000 words left to edit .

So I click on translate automatically .

Yes , I want to do that .

And then you see how many words I've left .

So that's how it works .

Finish complete .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So I will translate this all and I will be back with you when I've translated it .

So I've translated all the pages .

And now if I go to the home page , I see the Dutch flag at the home page .

If I go to the about page , I see the Dutch flag on every page in the website , you see the Dutch flag and that means that every page is translated .

So if I would click on this flag over here , I go to the About me page , you see this thing again .

So we need to go back to the English one , edit the page , scroll down , go to page attributes and change it into the elementary full with template update in order to speed this up .

I go to all pages and I click on them all holding command on the Mac or control on the PC .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

Then I , I say control tap and over here I said it to fool with and if it's full width and it is safe and safe amount .

W so it closes next one update , control tab , next one control dep , let me fast forward .

So I go to the website again to about and now when I go to the Dutch version , it looks like that .

That's Dutch , Dutch .

I don't have a contact form yet .

This is still English .

And here above to see an English menu .

How can we fix that ?

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

I go to the back end , make sure it is English and I go to appearance menus .

And then over here you see my menu in English and I click on this small text , synchronized menus between languages and they are doing a great job .

They are getting all the titles probably from all the translated pages and it is perfect .

So I click on sync and I select them all and I click on apply changes .

Now , my menu will synchronize .

If I take a look , I go to services and I go to the Dutch page .

Now , my menu is in Dutch , but it's not in capitals at some themes .

You can do that through the settings in the customizer of the theme .

But in my case , I want to do it manually .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So I go to appearance menus this time , I want to select the Dutch one now I can change everything into capitals over May Kingston .

I save the menu .

I refreshed the page .

Perfect Dutch English .

If I scroll down here , it still says about us , follow us most recent post and site map .

So how can we change this information on our website ?

Because if I go to the blog page and I go to a certain blog post , it says recent posts , follow us on Facebook categories all still in English .

How can we fix that ?

Let's go to the back end right now .

You see Dutch over here .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So having selected Dutch or the language that you want to translate into , go to appearance widgets , here's the main side bar .

So I click here and I say , and I save it here .

I say Facebook , save it in here .

I leave the categories .

Then we have the heather .

If there's something I know I have four more rigid areas , the food or rigid area one about us becomes over the text is la .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

So I leave it as this or I can say these had over once , save it vege area two again , like on Stop Facebook all the way down safe widget .

There are three amazed and the widget area four is a site map which is in Dutch also site map .

So I go to the Dutch website by clicking here and now it is working within the website itself .

So it's also working a Dutch menu .

A Dutch website .

Everything works exactly the same .

Our recent block posts appear with Dutch titles .

video content Image generated by Wilowrid

And over here over runs these overruns like on Facebook and the site map .

Perfect over my , we can check the whole website .

But first I want to go to the block page , click on the blog post because here it says phones on Facebook and oh , sorry , I need to change it because it's a different text in Dutch .

But I made my point on how to do this .

So I need to check my website over my .

That's correct .

This is not correct .

So I click on edit with element or scroll down .

I click here and I see Anna save it even this is Dutch .

So that's nice .

OK .

Services the block page , go to the ditch version and if I click over here , it is all Dutch leave a message in Dutch , logged in , in Dutch , plus the all Dutch .

This all Dutch .

Perfect .

And then contact page and in the air , I should make it wider .

So I click on edit with element or I select this area .

Click over here , same one over here and this one .

Save it .

Let's check it .

Awesome .

So now our complete website is in two languages and the great thing is the support of W PM L .

It can be that you run into a problem .

I had that .

For instance , I go to W PM L dot or G , what happened was that the title was appearing over here ?

And I had no idea what to do .

So I went to support support forum and there I searched for Heather title appearing in translation page search .

So I click over here and here I found the solution and that's how I found out that I needed to change everything to with .

So if you have a question , go to the support forum , search for the answer and if you cannot find it .

So having said that good luck with creating a beautiful website in multiple languages .
