Bogo on mutkaton, monikieliset artikkelit mahdollistava WordPress-lisäosa.

Itse WordPress on tehty toimimaan eri kielillä, eli sen ohjausnäkymän ja teeman esityskieli voi olla muu kuin englanti. Bogo laajentaa tätä toiminnallisuutta niin, että voit helposti luoda monikielisen blogisivuston yhteen WordPress-asennukseen.

Here are some technical details for those interested. Bogo plugin assigns one language per post. It plays nice with WordPress – Bogo does not create any additional custom table on your database, unlike some other plugins in this category. This design makes Bogo a solid, reliable and conflict-free multilingual plugin.

Getting started with Bogo

  1. Install language packs

    First, install language packs for languages you use on the site. You can view and install language packs in the Language Packs screen (Languages > Language Packs).

  2. Select your language for admin screen

    Bogo lets each logged-in user select a language for their admin screen UI. Select a language from the menu on the Toolbar, or from the menu in the Profile screen (Users > Your Profile) if the Toolbar is invisible.

  3. Translate your posts and pages

    To create a translation post, go to the editor screen for the original post and find the Language box. Bogo does only make a copy of the post; translating the copied post is your task.

  4. Add language switcher widgets

    It would be useful for site visitors if you have a language switcher on your site. Bogo provides the Language Switcher widget in the Widgets screen (Appearance > Widgets).

    You can also use the [bogo] shortcode to put a language switcher inside a post content. If you want to use this shortcode in your theme’s template files, embed the following code into the template:

    <?php echo do_shortcode( '[bogo]' ); ?>

Solid multilingual plugin for simple projects like brochure site or blog. There are many action hooks and filters for developers to use. Despite the lack of comments, they’re relatively easy to understand.

There are some functionalities needed that should be in the core like change the post language, or linking to another post. Do you have a repository to contribute?

I learned about this plugin a day ago. Tested the plugin today. It just works! Choosing another language in a page creates a copy, and you can edit the page or post as you wish. The BOGO shortcode works immediately, so the reader can switch from one language to another. I just wonder why everyone else makes a language plugin / switcher so difficult! Okay, the menu and footer remain the same when changing language, but for a simple multi-language site and using as many international terms as possible, it’s the perfect language plugin!

Thank you, Takayuki Miyoshi. Bogo is exactly what developers crave: minimal, transparent, and fast. No custom DB tables, one post per language, clean URLs, simple switcher—built on top of WordPress’ native localization.From a Developer standpoint, it extends naturally (clean hooks), plays nicely with ACF/CPT, and the [bogo] shortcode gets you running fast—then you can build a custom language selector for full control.Only gripe: documentation is thin; many filters/entry points are discoverable only by reading the source. A concise official guide (hooks overview, CPT/taxonomy examples) would make Bogo unbeatable for developers.Bottom line: for code-first teams, Bogo is fresh air compared to bulky suites: it does a few things, does them well, and stays out of your way.

The language selector is too basic. There are some websites that describe how to customize the selector, but it’s quite complicated. Also, you have to repeat this customization after every template update, so it should be possible to change the look of the selector in Bogo’s configuration. It’s also quite difficult to position the selector in the navigation bar so that it doesn’t destroy the whole layout.

The plugin lacks many options that competitors have: No option to enable/disable language flags. No ability to enable/disable language labels. There is no possibility to set the layout of language icons themselves. They only appear as a vertical list. This is inconvenient for menus. You can’t put them in a row. I had to rewrite the plugin code. There is no possibility to enable/disable detection of the user’s browser language, so that the pages would be displayed in the required language for the person.
