What OLOlang is
OLOlang is the suite’s native multilingual system: it takes a WordPress site into 28 languages without third-party plugins and without fragile frontend patches. It’s included free for the first year with OLObuild Free and for life with OLObuild Pro.
"Native" means translation isn’t a layer glued on top: it goes through the database, covers content, menus and strings, and produces first-class URLs and metadata for every language.
How it translates
- Content: pages, posts, OLObuild tiles: every language has its own version, saved in the DB.
- Menus: navigation items follow the active language, without duplicating menus by hand.
- Strings: theme and plugin texts (buttons, labels, messages) translated via the database.
Solutions that rewrite HTML on the fly break with every theme change. Translations in the database survive: they are content, not tricks.
The engines
- DeepL: quality machine translation for covered languages.
- AI translator: to refine, adapt tone, cover the remaining languages.
- Glossary: your terms (brand, products, jargon) stay yours in every language: "OLObuild" never becomes something else.
- Translation memory: an already-translated sentence gets reused: guaranteed consistency and costs that drop over time.
The workflow
The translator dashboard is the translator’s view: progress per language, missing strings, review queue. The typical flow:
- 1 · Automatic batch: DeepL/AI translate content in bulk into the chosen language.
- 2 · Human review: the translator goes through the entries, fixes, approves.
- 3 · Publishing: the language goes live with URLs, menus and SEO already in place.
Multilingual SEO
- hreflang: every page declares its variants: Google sends users to the right language.
- Localized URLs:
/it/camere-vista-lago,/en/lake-view-rooms,/de/zimmer-mit-seeblick. - Sitemap: all variants in the sitemap, meta and title per language.
No version is a second-class citizen: for search engines every language is a first-class page.
