## Описание

**Lang Forge** is a modern multilingual plugin that handles multilingual URL routing(
4 URL formats), manual post and string translation, a language switcher, hreflang
SEO, RTL layouts, a glossary, WooCommerce, unlimited languages, and one-click migration
from WPML / Polylang / TranslatePress. It ships a REST API and WP-CLI commands and
is a drop-in WPML compatibility layer. AI translation is available as the **Lang
Forge Pro** add-on.

#### Switching from WPML, Polylang or TranslatePress?

Lang Forge imports your existing setup instead of making you start over. The migration
tool reads your current plugin’s data and recreates it: translated posts and their
language links, string translations, taxonomy translations, and your language URL
structure.

The migration is non-destructive. Your current plugin stays installed and untouched
until you confirm the result, so you can compare both side by side and roll back
if anything looks wrong.

If you are coming from WPML, you can also keep your existing theme and plugin code
working unchanged. Lang Forge ships a WPML compatibility layer that implements the
functions third-party code expects — `icl_object_id()`, `icl_get_languages()`, `
icl_translate()` and others — so integrations built against WPML keep working without
edits.

#### Free

 * Unlimited languages
 * Multilingual URL routing — 4 formats (directory `/fr/`, query `?lang=fr`, subdomain,
   domain mapping)
 * Manual post / page / CPT translation linking
 * Manual string translation (auto-registered via gettext)
 * Language switcher (widget / shortcode / admin bar)
 * hreflang tags with x-default, plus an hreflang sitemap
 * Glossary
 * WooCommerce product and store string translation
 * WPML compatibility layer (`icl_object_id()`, `icl_get_languages()`, etc.)
 * REST API + WP-CLI commands
 * One-click migration from WPML / Polylang / TranslatePress
 * RTL support (ar/he/fa/ur/ku)

#### Pro

 * AI translation with translation memory
 * Visual editor (side-by-side WYSIWYG translation)
 * Frontend translation
 * Elementor + ACF integration
 * Content diff + Translation QA
 * Analytics dashboard
 * Import / export PO + XLIFF
 * Bulk AI translation, translator roles, media/comment translation, live preview

Part of the **Forge Suite** — bundle includes SEO Forge, Form Forge, Field Forge.

### Third-Party Services

Lang Forge connects to the following third-party services. Basic translation, the
language switcher, string translation, and hreflang work fully offline with no external
calls — data is sent only when you use an AI feature.

 * **Avakode API** (https://avakode.com) — powers AI translation and AI quality 
   checks, and validates your license. When you run an AI translation or QA check,
   the source post content, the target language, your site URL, and your license
   key are sent. The Avakode API routes AI requests to OpenAI and/or DeepL on your
   behalf. Terms: https://avakode.com/terms — Privacy: https://avakode.com/privacy
 * **OpenAI** (used by the Avakode API to perform AI translation) — Terms: https://
   openai.com/policies/terms-of-use — Privacy: https://openai.com/policies/privacy-
   policy
 * **DeepL** (used by the Avakode API to perform AI translation) — Terms: https://
   www.deepl.com/en/pro-license — Privacy: https://www.deepl.com/en/privacy
 * **Anonymous usage analytics (opt-in, OFF by default)** — Only if you explicitly
   opt in from the Lang Forge settings, the plugin sends anonymous product-usage
   telemetry to the Avakode API (https://avakode.com/telemetry): a random install
   ID (UUID, not tied to your site URL or any account), your bucketed WordPress 
   and PHP version ranges, the plugin version, and aggregate feature-usage event
   counters. It is sent ONLY after you opt in and can be disabled at any time. It
   never sends your site URL, email address, post or form content, or license key.

## Часто задаваемые вопросы

### How do I make my WordPress site multilingual?

Install Lang Forge, go to Lang Forge  Settings and add the languages you need. Pick
how language URLs should look — subdirectories like /fr/, a query parameter, subdomains,
or a separate domain per language. From there every post, page and custom post type
gets a Language panel where you link or create its translations.

### How do I translate WooCommerce products and categories?

Lang Forge translates WooCommerce product content, product categories and tags, 
and store strings such as cart and checkout labels. Open any product in the editor
and use the Language panel the same way you would for a post.

### How do I add hreflang tags to WordPress?

Lang Forge outputs hreflang tags automatically in `wp_head` for every translated
URL, including the x-default entry, and generates an hreflang sitemap. No manual
markup and no separate SEO plugin configuration needed.

### Can I use a separate domain for each language?

Yes. Domain mapping is one of the four supported URL formats, alongside subdirectories,
subdomains and query parameters. You can point example.fr and example.de at the 
same WordPress install and Lang Forge will serve the correct language on each.

### How do I migrate from Polylang without losing translations?

Run the built-in migration tool. It imports your translated posts, the links between
them, your string translations and your language URL structure. Polylang stays installed
and untouched until you confirm the migration, so nothing is lost if you change 
your mind.

### Can I migrate from WPML?

Yes, and your existing code keeps working. Beyond importing your content, Lang Forge
provides a WPML compatibility layer implementing `icl_object_id()`, `icl_get_languages()`
and related functions, so themes and plugins written against WPML continue to work
without modification.

### Will my URLs change if I switch from TranslatePress?

Only if you want them to. The migration tool reads your current language URL format
and reproduces it, so existing links and search rankings stay intact. You can change
the format later from Settings if you decide to.

### Does it support right-to-left languages like Arabic and Hebrew?

Yes. Lang Forge includes RTL support for Arabic, Hebrew, Persian, Urdu and Kurdish,
switching text direction and adjusting the admin and switcher layout automatically.

### How do I add a language switcher to my menu?

The switcher is available three ways: as a widget, as a shortcode you can drop anywhere,
and in the admin bar. It can display flags, native language names, or both.

### How do I translate strings from my theme or another plugin?

Any string passed through WordPress translation functions is registered automatically
via gettext and appears in the String Translation screen, where you can translate
it per language. No .po file editing required.

### Can I translate my site from the command line?

Yes. Lang Forge ships WP-CLI commands for listing languages, linking and unlinking
translations, importing and exporting translation data, and running bulk operations—
useful for staging deployments and scripted workflows.

### Is there a way to export translations to XLIFF or PO?

Import and export of PO and XLIFF files is available in Lang Forge Pro, for sending
content to external translators or translation agencies.

### How many languages can I use on the free version?

Unlimited. There is no plan-based cap on the number of languages in the free version.

### Does Lang Forge work with my theme?

Yes. Lang Forge uses standard WordPress hooks — `the_content`, `get_the_title`, 
hreflang via `wp_head` — so no theme-specific integration is needed.

### Does it work with Elementor and ACF?

Elementor and ACF field translation is available in Lang Forge Pro. The free version
handles standard post content, custom post types and taxonomies.

### Does it slow down my site?

Basic translation, the language switcher, string translation and hreflang all run
locally with no external requests. Nothing is sent anywhere unless you use an AI
feature, which is a Pro add-on.

### Is AI translation included in the free version?

No. The free version covers manual translation of posts, strings, taxonomies and
WooCommerce content. AI translation, translation memory and bulk AI translation 
are part of the Lang Forge Pro add-on.

### How much does AI translation cost?

AI translations consume Forge Credits (separate from the subscription). One credit
≈ one short paragraph. Credits don’t expire.

### Is my content sent to OpenAI?

Only when you run an AI feature, and only the text being translated. It goes to 
the Avakode API, which forwards it to OpenAI or DeepL. No personal data, no admin
information, no site URLs. See the Third-Party Services section for the full breakdown.

### What is a glossary and when do I need one?

A glossary locks specific terms to a fixed translation — brand names, product names,
industry terminology — so they stay consistent across every translated page instead
of varying between passes.

## Журнал изменений

#### 1.0.25

 * readme: clearer plugin title, updated tags and an expanded FAQ covering multilingual
   setup, WooCommerce, hreflang, migration and RTL.
 * No functional changes.

#### 1.0.24

 * Security hardening: all dynamic output is now escaped late with the context-appropriate
   function (esc_html/esc_attr/esc_url, esc_html__ for translated strings used as
   format strings, and wp_kses for trusted pre-built admin markup). No behavioural
   changes.
 * The glossary CSV export now neutralises CSV/formula injection in exported cells.

#### 1.0.23

 * Free now supports an unlimited number of languages with no plan-based cap — removed
   all license-gated language-limit code (no «locked» language rows, no over-limit
   notice, no limit on saving).
 * Tightened the glossary REST list endpoint to the same administrator capability
   as glossary management.

#### 1.0.22

 * Hardened WP-CLI export: files are now always written to a plugin-slug folder 
   inside the uploads directory (wp-content/uploads/langforge/) instead of an arbitrary
   path, so nothing is ever written into the plugin folder.
 * Uninstall cleanup now only removes data under the plugin’s own unambiguous prefix,
   so unrelated options/metadata belonging to other plugins are never deleted.

#### 1.0.18

 * New: Support menu item that opens the Avakode support dashboard.
 * New: Opt-in anonymous usage analytics (OFF by default) — see Third-Party Services.
 * New: Contextual, dismissible Pro feature tips on the plugin dashboard (Free users
   only).

#### 1.0.15

 * WordPress.org compliance and licensing hardening.
 * Pro entitlement is now resolved by the Lang Forge Pro add-on; the free plugin
   bundles no licensing SDK.
 * The plugin no longer modifies admin notices belonging to other plugins.
 * readme metadata cleanup.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
