FAQ
- How does it work
-
The plugin walks through all source elements from the wp_icl_translations table (source element is the element in the ‘original language’).
if the element is a post (post_) or a taxonomy (tax_) it will be migrated:
The translations for the element will be merged with the source element.
If the element is a post, any comments for the post will also be attached to the source element.
Once merged, the translation posts/taxonomies will be removed from the database. - Will it migrate strings translations?
-
No. Only posts, taxonomies and terms will be migrated.
- Will all my URLs stay the same?
-
No, slugs are not migrated by default. Some urls will break. If the ‘qTranslate Slug’-plugin is installed during migration, the slugs for posts and terms will also be translated for you. Note: the taxonomy slugs will not be translated (e.g. /product-cat/ )
