Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WPGlobus

WPGlobus stores all translations using a special format: {:en}English{:}{:fr}French{:}{:es}Spanish{:}. If you decide to deactivate WPGlobus, you must run the cleanup tool to keep only one language. See the details on the "Uninstall" tab in the WPGlobus Settings.

Please go to the Admin - Settings - Permalinks page. Make sure that the Common Settings is not set to "Plain" and then press the Save Changes button. It should help.

WPGlobus (this plugin) is the free version, with the essential multilingual tools. TIV Globus is the Pro version: it adds translated URLs, WooCommerce, page-builder support, and more. See "Free and Pro versions" near the top for the full comparison, or visit the TIV Globus page.

Those add-ons have been replaced by TIV Globus, which brings their features together in one product. As an existing customer, you can move to TIV Globus at no extra cost - see the free upgrade.

Yes. TIV Globus reads the same storage format as WPGlobus, so your existing translations and language settings are kept. Your content stays compatible with WPGlobus, so you can switch back later if you ever need to.

No. TIV Globus is sold on the WooCommerce.com marketplace, but it works on any site - with or without WooCommerce.
