In their own words
Polylang
Polylang is a WordPress plugin for building multilingual websites and translating WordPress content. It handles pages, posts, media, categories, tags, custom post types, menus, and widgets, with language URLs arranged as subdirectories, subdomains, or separate domains. Polylang Pro supports manual translation and DeepL machine translation using the customer's own API key. Pro also offers language switchers, browser-language detection, translated URL slugs, hreflang and Open Graph tags, and language-specific meta tags. It integrates with the WordPress block editor and Site Editor and supports the REST API and XLIFF translation-project import and export. Listed integrations include WooCommerce and Yoast SEO. The free WordPress plugin costs nothing; Pro licenses start at €99 a year, ex VAT. A multilingual WooCommerce shop also needs the Polylang for WooCommerce add-on. DeepL is not currently compatible with Elementor and some builders, and there is no one-click translate-everything feature.
