- Go to WPML > Languages and make sure the Language URL format is set to “Different languages in directories”. We currently support directories, but not subdomains or parameters.
- Add languages and content as you normally would and then click on the big red Strattic publish button to generate a static version of your WordPress site.
What is Polylang?
Polylang is another popular multilingual plugin for WordPress that tries to simplify managing a multilingual site. You write posts, pages and create categories and tags as usual, and then define the language for each of them.
How does Strattic support for Polylang work?
- Install Polylang (if it isn’t installed already)
- Go to Polylang > Settings and make sure the URL Modifications are set to “The language is set from the directory name in pretty permalinks”. We currently support directories, but not subdomains.
