Title: Wordpress translation plugin

Just wondered if anyone had given this a go? Trying to figure out how it works under the hood as to whether it creates static or dynamic posts to see if it is any use for actual seo and different languages or just enhances user experience once they land on the site. Anyone playing with this one?

Just in case anyone else is looking at this, the plugin does create new posts with individual urls etc so looks like a fantastic solution for a multilingual wordpress site.

How good are the translations?  Who is multilingual that we could test?

It is not for automatic translations it is for managing manual translation and localisation as far as I can tell.

Right Leona. It's only for managing multilingual content.
Haven't played with it much, but definetely something I would consider for managing an ML wp site.

just for an update if anyone is looking into this, it does create individual posts, so all good.

You mean it creates individual posts for different languages automatically? Or ... simply creates new posts for each language you write for?
