Start by making sure your site meets WPML’s minimum requirements. If you have a Multilingual CMS or Multilingual Agency account, you should always install WPML Multilingual CMS and WPML String Translation plugins. If you have a Multilingual Blog account, you only have access to the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin.

We recommend starting with translating the content and only then translating the site’s structure. This way, when you translate the menu, you’ll already have translated content to include in it.

By default, translation will open WPML’s Advanced Translation Editor. You can disable the Advanced Translation Editor for pages that need a unique design for each translation. Then, translate them using the native WordPress editor.

1.4
WPML’s String Translation (not available in Multilingual Blog accounts) will let you translate the texts in the header, footer, and sidebars. You’ll see the strings that need translation in WPML → String Translation. WordPress sites will have many strings and you don’t need to translate all of them. The String Translation page will show you the strings that appear on the site’s front-end and are missing translations.
