How it works
From install to translated in four steps.
The example uses an online shop. The same steps work for any plugin or theme that uses WordPress translations.
1
Install and activate
Upload the plugin and activate it. A "InPage Translate" item appears in the WordPress toolbar, in the admin and on your site.
Plugin activated. Click "InPage Translate" in the toolbar to begin.
2
Click it on any page
Every text the page can translate gets a dashed outline. Green ones are already translated, with a small language tag.

Saved. Live. Reversible.
The text changes on the page at once and stays after you leave. Every change keeps the earlier text, so a mistake is one click from undone.

Earlier text: (none)Restore
What nobody else does
One page. Every text in its own language.
Most tools switch a whole site from one language to another. InPage Translate lets each text keep the language you gave it, so one page can mix Spanish, German, Japanese and Arabic while you work, or while your customers read.
- Translate one button today, the rest of the page tomorrow
- A small tag shows which language each text is in
- Visitors can also pick one language for the whole site

InPage Translate vs Loco Translate
A Loco Translate and WPML alternative for plugin and theme text.
Loco Translate, WPML and TranslatePress are great tools. WPML and TranslatePress turn a whole website into a multilingual one, and Loco Translate edits language files. InPage Translate does one job, fast: change the words your plugins and theme show, where you see them.
| Type | InPage Translate | Loco Translate | WPML | TranslatePress |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Click a text on the page to translate it | Yes | No, edit in a file editor | Mostly in a separate editor | Yes |
| Each text keeps its own language on one page | Yes | No | No | No |
| No .po or .mo files to edit, upload or update | Yes | No, file based | Yes | Yes |
| Free machine translation, no key needed | Yes, with review status | Needs a key | Paid credits | Needs a key |
| Placeholder checks (%s, %d) before saving | Yes | Partly | Partly | No |
| Translates posts, pages and menus | No, by design | No | Yes | Yes |
| Price | Free | Free and Pro | Yearly plans | Free and Premium |
Choose InPage Translate if
you want to fix or localise the words of plugins and themes, quickly, without touching files.
Choose a multilingual suite if
you need your own posts, pages and menus in several languages, with a language switcher and translated URLs.

Features
A WordPress translation plugin that is careful where it counts.
Placeholders are protected
A translation with an extra %s or %d would break your site, so it is refused. A missing one is saved with a warning.
"%d items, %s" has one placeholder more than the original.
Free machine translation
Google, DeepL, Microsoft and MyMemory. Add your own keys for the paid ones. Nothing is sent until you agree.
History with restore
Every change keeps the text before it. Undo a mistake in one click, even a deleted translation.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How do I translate a WordPress plugin without .po files?
Install InPage Translate, open the plugin's screen in wp-admin or on your site, and click InPage Translate in the toolbar. Click any outlined text, pick a language, type the translation or press Generate, and save. The translation is stored in your database, so there is no .po or .mo file to edit, upload or update.
Is InPage Translate a Loco Translate alternative?
For translating the text of plugins and themes, yes. Both tools do that job. Loco Translate edits .po and .mo language files in an editor, while InPage Translate lets you click the text where it appears on the page and keeps the translation in your database. They do different jobs, so they can also sit side by side.
Is it a WPML or TranslatePress alternative?
Only for plugin and theme text. WPML and TranslatePress also translate your posts, pages and menus, and InPage Translate does not, by design. If you need a fully multilingual site with translated pages and URLs, use one of them. If you only need to change the words your plugins and theme show, InPage Translate is quicker and free.
Does it work with my plugin?
With any plugin or theme whose texts go through WordPress translation functions, which is nearly all of them, WooCommerce, Yoast SEO, Elementor and WPForms included. Text typed straight into a template, or stored in the database, is not covered.
Is InPage Translate free? Do I need a translation API key?
The plugin is free, with no account and no subscription. Machine translation works without a key through free services (MyMemory and the Google Translate web endpoint). You can add your own DeepL, Google Cloud or Microsoft Translator key for better quality and limits.
Does it change .po or .mo files?
No. Translations are saved in your own database and applied as the page is built, so there is no file to edit, upload or update. You can still export a PO, MO, CSV or JSON file whenever you want one.
Will my translations survive plugin updates?
Yes. They live in your database, not in the plugin's folder, so updating a plugin or theme does not overwrite them.
Can I use it with Loco Translate?
They do different jobs, so they can sit side by side. InPage Translate changes the words you see on a page, one text at a time. Loco Translate edits language files. WordPress loads the language files first, then InPage Translate replaces the texts you translated.
Does it work with a page cache?
Saved translations show for visitors once the cache is cleared. If a translation does not show, clear your page cache and CDN first.
