Description

Translate Post to Language is a powerful and easy-to-use WordPress plugin that helps you instantly create translated versions of your blog posts and pages using the official Google Translate API. Ideal for bloggers, content creators, and site owners looking to go multilingual without the hassle of manual translation or third-party SaaS services.

With just a single click from the post editor in your WordPress dashboard, you can automatically generate a new version of the content in a different language (default: Hindi). This translated post is saved as a new draft (or published post), linked directly to the original post using custom metadata — allowing seamless navigation between language versions.

Unlike many translation plugins that only offer front-end machine translation or require complex configuration, Translate Post to Language creates real translated posts stored in your WordPress database. These posts are editable, SEO-indexable, and shareable independently — giving you full control over your multilingual content strategy.

Super Easy Way to Translate WordPress Posts

ሰነ 19, 2025
This plugin is exactly what I was looking for! I wanted to translate my blog posts into Hindi without relying on messy front-end tools or duplicating everything manually—and this plugin made it effortless. Just one click inside the post editor, and it automatically generates a new draft with the translated content. It even copies over the title and links the new post to the original, so everything stays organized. Huge bonus that it’s stored as an actual WordPress post, not just temporary front-end content. What works great: Clean interface – blends right into the WordPress admin. Real post creation – fully editable and SEO-friendly. Supports 100+ languages, and I could easily switch between them in settings. No performance issues — the plugin is lightweight and doesn’t add bloat to the site. Very useful for reaching new readers and growing organic traffic across different regions. I also appreciate that it checks if a post is already translated — avoids duplication and keeps things neat. If you’re managing a blog or website and want a simple way to offer your content in different languages without paying for expensive services, this plugin is a solid choice. Works great, does what it says, and makes multilingual content creation super fast. Big thanks to the developer for building something so helpful!

Must-Have for Bloggers Going Multilingual!

I’ve tried a bunch of translation plugins over the years, but Translate Post to Language really stands out for its simplicity and smart approach. Instead of just showing translated text on the front end (like many others), this plugin actually creates a new post in your chosen language using Google Translate. That means you get real, editable posts you can tweak and optimize however you want. What I liked: The one-click translate button in the post editor is a huge time-saver. It keeps everything organized by linking translated posts to the original. Translations include title, content, and meta, so it’s not half-done. Works great with the Classic Editor and Gutenberg — no compatibility issues so far. I can choose from 100+ languages and even disable translations for certain post types. Also love that there’s no front-end bloat — the plugin does its job in the admin area without slowing down the site. If you’re a blogger or content creator looking to grow your audience across different languages without paying for third-party SaaS services, this is a perfect solution. Quick to set up, easy to manage, and gives you full control over your translated content. Highly recommended!
