Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about SlyTranslate – AI Translation Abilities

Yes. When Advanced Custom Fields (Free or Pro) is active, SlyTranslate automatically detects text, textarea, and wysiwyg fields on the post being translated and includes them in the translation — no settings to configure. Fields of other types (image, number, url, select, relationships, etc.) are left untouched. This includes Repeater and Flexible Content layouts: each leaf field with a translatable type is picked up individually, regardless of nesting depth. To extend which field types are translated, add a filter to your theme's functions.php or a site-specific plugin: add_filter( 'slytranslate_acf_translatable_field_types', function ( $types ) { $types[] = 'url'; return $types; } ); To exclude fields there are three options: enable the "Exclude from AI translation" toggle in the ACF field editor, add the meta keys to the meta_keys_exclude setting (via the configure MCP ability), or use the slytranslate_translate_meta_key filter, which has the final say: add_filter( 'slytranslate_translate_meta_key', function ( $translate, $meta_key ) { return $meta_key === 'my_field' ? false : $translate; }, 10, 2 );
Yes. Field data stored inside acf/* Gutenberg blocks is translated automatically along with the post content, including repeater sub-fields. ACF link fields translate only the link title — URL and target are never sent to the model. ACF fields on options pages are translated through the ai-translate/translate-options MCP ability. With WPGlobus or WP Multilang the translated variant is merged into the option value; TranslatePress needs no separate step (its string table already translates option output). Polylang has no language-aware option storage — opt in to per-language storage via the slytranslate_acf_options_post_id filter.
Yes. Translatable field types (text, textarea, wysiwyg for Meta Box; text, paragraph, wysiwyg for Pods) are detected through each plugin's field registry. The type lists are extensible via the slytranslate_metabox_translatable_field_types and slytranslate_pods_translatable_field_types filters.
Yes, for inline text and block translation. Content translation workflows (full post/page) require a supported language plugin.
In WordPress Settings > Connectors, not inside SlyTranslate.
Yes. Select items in wp-admin, pick the bulk translation action, choose language and model, and confirm.
Yes. Call ai-translate/translate-content-bulk with background=true and the batch is queued with one post per scheduled action — via Action Scheduler when available (bundled by WooCommerce), otherwise via WP-Cron. Poll with get-progress (job_id) and cancel with cancel-translation (job_id). Jobs survive closed browser tabs and PHP timeouts. Without a working cron the browser-driven mode keeps working as before.
With Polylang, enable translate_terms in ai-translate/configure: terms without a target-language translation are then created and linked automatically during post translation instead of being dropped. For existing sites, ai-translate/translate-terms bulk-translates whole taxonomies (use dry_run=true to preview).
Yes. Alt texts embedded in the content are translated with the content. The attachment meta alt text (_wp_attachment_image_alt) is translated by default, and with Polylang's media translation enabled, duplicating a media item also translates its alt text, caption, and description.
Yes. Configure the glossary setting via ai-translate/configure: entries with mode=keep are never translated; entries with mode=translate always use your fixed per-language translation.
