Frequently Asked Questions

It works with posts and pages, but with other content type?

This plugin allows to translate slugs of: posts, pages, custom post types, categories, tags and custom taxonomies.

Do I have to configure anything?

If you want to translate also the base permastructs (ex. category, tag, etc). Visit the plugin settings page in the admin Settings/Slug options

How can i insert a language selector in my theme ?

You can choose to:

  • use Qtranslate Slug Widget in your sidebar.
  • place in your template <?php if (function_exists('qts_language_menu') ) qts_language_menu('text'); ?>. Options are: dropdown, text, image, and both.

Appears an error 404, what can i do?

In the admin go to Settings/Permalinks or Settings/Slug options and save.

I can't manage translations in Nav Menus.

That's because language selector metabox is hidden, if you are in admin nav menus screen, press the button Screen options (on top and right) and after, check the option Languages. It will appear a Language meta box on top of the left sidebar.
