Vizou Bling – Features
Features
Please note that this plugin is made primarily for use by theme developers designing custom themes from scratch. It is not intended to be compatible with existing themes or theme builders (yuck!) and is not available in the WordPress repository.
- Create bilingual content for Posts and Pages in your WordPress site
- Built-in, customizable language switcher (button, text, etc.) with Settings options
- Fast switching, with a single click, between language content (already loaded in each Page or Post)
- Custom Title, Content and Excerpt fields (built with ACF), on the same Post or Page for easy editing
- Featured images are shared between both languages for both Posts and Pages
- Secondary language content URLs take the primary language page slug and add the prefix
/?lang=(i.e. /?lang=fr) to enable direct linking and sharing - Help page in WordPress admin (currently English only)
- Open source and free to anyone who wants to use, fork or adapt it
- Auto-update available from the WordPress admin plugins page
Requirements
- Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin must be installed and activated on your site (free or paid version).
- You will need to customize your theme’s page templates (examples on the Help page) to use plugin functionality
Considerations
- By default, secondary language Pages and Posts share the primary language page slug (the content is created and edited on the same page). To provide a direct, shareable link, secondary language URLs automatically have a suffix added to that slug, for example
example.com/about-the-artist/?lang=fr. - Single-language URLs may be a potential issue with SEO for some types of sites, however, the primary language remains SEO-friendly and all language content is contained and exposed to search bots in a single Page or Post rendering it indexable by search bots.
