Good, if you use a small product basis..but

  • I used to love WPML. But as soon as I had a larger product base, it became a nightmare, which is still daunting me:

    I all for sudden had products and categories in all languages, which defies the purpose of this plugin Because I don t get more prodducts, just because i add a language!
    The core concept of WPML fails to keep the product basis slim. I had the same product now 9 different set ups (9languages times 200 products!)
    and they all sounnd the same. Just this fact alone led me to a time consuming relaunch and now think of moving my whole ecosystem to a more sustainable Ecommerce suite like prestashop or likewise

    Hi @cbdoel,

    I am not sure to understand your problem. Did you have products from different languages showing on a page that is supposed to show only one language?

    Or are you concerned with the size of your database? Or the performance maybe?

    WPML and WCML works that way: For each product (and generally, post), a new product is created in each language. This allows to have a full control on the translations either if you use a translation editor (recommended way) or manual translation.

    Some WCML users already run sites with thousands of products and usually it works fine. But it might require some fine tunning to really get the best performance.

    We can help you to go further if you wish. Please open a support ticket on WPML’s forum and you will get the needed assistance.

    Thanks,
    Pierre
