100% approved! I tried most of the translation plugins out there and each one had something wrong, some of them messed up my website after deactivation. With Falang I was impressed from the beginning of how easy it is to use, intuitive, highly customizable and very light for my website. It works great with Woocommerce, menus and media, url slugs. I manually translated the entire website in no time and for who prefers there is the option to easily do it via google and others. I had to contact the support for something that turned out to be related with another plugin and Stephane helped me the same day. Thank you for this amazing plugin! 🙂

I know Falang from Joomla and have been using it for a long time. Great extension!Now I have used Falang together with Wordpress for the first time and after some initial difficulties (but this has more to do with my lack of knowledge of Wordpress) the whole thing is now running as it should. The support team helped me out and responded very quickly. Thank you!Christoph
