Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to configure anything after installation?
No! The integration is automatic. Once both the addon and Loco Translate are active, subsites can immediately start creating their own custom translations.
What happens if a subsite doesn't create custom translations?
The site will automatically use network-wide translations as a fallback. Nothing breaks, and everything works seamlessly.
Can subsites access network-wide translations?
Regular site admins only see and edit their own site’s translations. Super admins can access both network-wide and site-specific translations depending on which site they’re viewing.
Does this work with both plugins and themes?
Yes! Site-specific translations work for both WordPress plugins and themes.
Will this slow down my multisite network?
No. The addon uses efficient file loading that only checks for site-specific translations when needed. There's no noticeable performance impact.
Can I copy network translations to a specific site as a starting point?
Yes! While editing translations in Loco Translate, you can easily start with network translations and customize them for each site.
Does this work with WooCommerce and other plugins?
Absolutely! Any plugin or theme that uses standard WordPress translation functions will work with site‑specific translations.
