Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about WakaLang
No. WakaLang Free makes no external network calls, does not use a CDN, does not include telemetry, and does not perform license checks.
From the URL prefix (for example /en/). The prefix is authoritative; visitors are never silently redirected away from the language they are viewing.
Yes. The free plugin is complete for manual multilingual sites: register languages, use URL prefixes, link translated posts, output a switcher, and publish hreflang alternates.
Choose "Page header" or "Page footer" under WakaLang → Settings → Language switcher position to show the switcher in the site layout instead of inside post content. You can also add the Language Switcher block, place the [wakalang_switcher] shortcode in content, or call wakalang_language_switcher() from a theme template. You can show country flags (rendered as Unicode emoji, no external requests) with the flags option set to flag or flag_and_name. To turn the switcher off everywhere without removing it from your content, toggle "Show language switcher" off on the Settings screen.
Open the post or page editor and use the WakaLang meta box to set the post's language and link it into a translation group. From there you can see the other-language versions and create a draft translation to fill in. Taxonomy terms are linked the same way from the term editor. WakaLang stores these relationships in its own table and removes them automatically when a post is deleted.
Yes. While a visitor is on /en/, menu links, internal permalinks, the site logo/home link, and block-theme navigation keep the /en/ prefix. WakaLang maintains the prefix only — it does not silently redirect to a different translation — and it leaves external links, anchors, /wp-admin/, REST, and feeds untouched.
WakaLang does not include an automatic importer. You register your languages, then set each post's language and link translations into a group manually. Because WakaLang relies on WordPress's standard slugs and a small custom table, content stays in plain WordPress posts and terms.
