Simpe and effective plugin

Saves time and effort.

Much more efficient than WPML

By manuelricardo on September 5, 2025

I initially used WPML, recognizing its position as the market leader and because it offers a comprehensive suite of features that simplify the management of a multilingual website. However, I observed a significant negative impact on performance, particularly on shared hosting environments. Furthermore, in some instances, I encountered severe compatibility issues with other plugins.

Consequently, I decided to give Polylang a chance, and I am exceedingly pleased that I did. Not only has the performance of my site improved substantially, but it also presents no issues whatsoever with any of the other plugins I use.

Highly recommended.

Perfect plugin for Polylang

By 123espanol on April 27, 2025

The Polylang Duplicate Content Addon has become an indispensable tool in my multilingual workflow. It significantly reduces the effort involved in creating content across multiple languages by flawlessly duplicating the exact structure and content of the original page or post. This eliminates a tremendous amount of repetitive work right from the start.

The real power of this addon is unlocked when combined with a plugin like AI Translation For Polylang. After duplicating the content, I can leverage AI to generate translations in a matter of seconds. This rapid translation capability dramatically speeds up the entire localization process.

However, what truly sets this workflow apart is the ability to review and refine the AI-generated translations. While the initial translation provides a fantastic starting point, being able to manually adjust the text ensures that the final articles and pages are not only accurate but also perfectly tailored to each target language and audience. This crucial step guarantees a high level of quality and nuance that raw machine translation alone cannot achieve.

If you're managing a multilingual website with Polylang, the Duplicate Content Addon is a game-changer. It streamlines content creation, integrates seamlessly with AI translation tools, and most importantly, empowers you to maintain complete control over the quality of your translated content. I highly recommend it!
