How to use native switch menu to change my website language ?

Hi,

I want to have my website in English (default) and French with a switch menu or buttons.

I followed the doc to translate may website with Loco:
https://xtemos.com/docs-topic/translate-woodmart-theme-with-loco-translate/

And this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D3NsDdMzsls

But after this, I don’t know what to do and how use this switch menu proposed by default in Woodmart header (screenshot1)

Int he back office we find it as a menu, named “Top bar Left”, and as a menu I have to fill an URL. (screenshot2) I don’t witch one.
Should I have to use the PO & MO files and if yes, how ?

Does it native switch menu in the Woodmart theme is compatible with Loco or only WPML ?

Thanks,

Hi dynamo-models,

Loco Translate plugin is used to translate into single language only. In order to create multilingual site, please use WPML and WoodMart theme is compatible with both plugins. You can read more here:

Regarding to Headers / Footers translate, please read this article

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. So Loco is not the good solution for a multilingual website.

Do you know if I can use TranslatePress, Polylang or Weglot ?

best,

Hi dynamo-models,

We have not tested TranslatePress – Multilingual and other translation plugins and do not guarantee 100% compatibility.

WoodMart is fully compatible with WPML. Please consider the possibility of switching to this plugin.

Alternatively, you need to contact the TranslatePress – Multilingual plugin support.

If you have any questions please feel free to contact us.

Best Regards,
