Language switcher in wordpress

4 Views

I’m looking for a simple plugin for WordPress to be able to switch the language on the front-end.
I tried many plugins no one worked. I just need to prefix my page path with something like /en/my_page and transform it to /fr/my_page when I select French as the current language for instance.

  2. I have developed a free plugin for that purpose here:

    It has been reviewed and hosted by WordPress here:

    Language Switcher allows you to map urls of alternative languages for Post Types and Taxonomies. Additionally it allows you to filter archive pages by language.

    To prefix your pages with the language code I recommend you to follow these steps:

    1. create a main page with slug en and another one with slug fr.
    2. set my_page with parent page en and ma_page with parent page fr.
    3. map the urls of the translations in my_page and ma_page
    4. add the shortcode [language-switcher] to allow readers to jump from one page to another
