WPML GraphQL

Sites that serve several languages through GraphQL need a way to ask for the right translation. WPML GraphQL fills that gap by joining WPML, the translation management system, with WPGraphQL, which creates GraphQL APIs on WordPress. Developers can query content in a supported language and switch languages inside their queries, without building custom workarounds.

The plugin works with WPML's translation management system, translation editor and language switcher tools. It also covers multilingual custom post types and taxonomies, so translated content beyond standard posts and pages can be reached through the same API. It fits headless builds, custom front ends and applications that rely on WordPress as a content source in more than one language.

Features

• Multilingual support for WPGraphQL: Adds language awareness to WPGraphQL, so you can query and manage content across multiple languages through the GraphQL API on your WordPress site.
• Dynamic language switching: Fetch content in different languages by changing the language within your GraphQL queries, which gives front ends flexibility in how they present translated content.
• Works with WPML tools: Compatible with WPML's translation management system, translation editor and language switcher tools, so your existing translation workflow stays in place.
• Developer-friendly API integration: Lets developers build customized multilingual applications on top of WordPress without complex workarounds for handling translated content.
• Custom post types and taxonomies: Extends multilingual querying beyond standard posts and pages to custom post types and taxonomies, covering more of your site's content.
• Translations in a single query: Retrieve translations directly within GraphQL queries, without making additional requests to get each language version of an item.
• Structured multilingual content: Helps keep multilingual content properly structured, so each language version stays accessible through your API and front end.

Best for

• Developers building headless WordPress sites in several languages
• Sites already using WPML and WPGraphQL together
• Agencies delivering multilingual GraphQL-based applications
