Xili language is not compatible with WP 4.6. Activation of the plugin results in Error 500, or some unspecified database error.
Considering that Xili language is meant to be one of the core plugins of a multilingual site, this is a disaster. Deactivation creates havoc on a site: menus disappear, all content gets all mixed up.

It works correctly. Exactly as desired. Thank the developers.

**UPDATE**
Oh my God! If you have a responsive template Do not use this plugin!
Just discovered that on mobile devices all the menus translated with the Menus Selection option in the menus section do not pick up the page name but simply output PAGE LIST INSERTION POINT!!!
Please, please, PLEASE!!! Remove it from the repository, rework it then repost it! I appreciate your work, but all this is a huge waste of time and gives you the developer a bad name!
You should at least state all the flaws this plugin has. Not really a translation plugin at all in this stage.
**Original post**
Unfortunately it’s the only one that works with my template. Menues are a nightmare to translate, and instructions and tips are kinda-google-translated, hardly understandable. Hate to be this harsh but I also hate having to waste hours for nothing.

I have a multi language site of English and Japanese, I originally just wanted to make an English site but I reside in Japan and many of my friends are Japanese and they recommended to make it to bilingual……so I tried qtanslate-x first with Fashonista. Once it was working but when I switch to Auberge, it failed. I research for an alternative and found xili language plugin. I feel having different language posts separately is better way than having them as one post. I still have few problems to fix but thanks to xili language, my site is up and running ?? They are also nice with mail support too!

When I try to activate this plugin my dashboard doesn’t load. It’s a completely white page! The only way I could delete this plugin is through FTP. If I didn’t know how to do that there would be no way I could get into my site. Don’t EVER recommend!

Hello,
I am on WordPress Multisite and I installed the plugin on just one of my sites for testing purposes. I then deactivated the plugin and now I want to delete it, but I am given the following message on a whote screen:
Impossible to erase plugin settings in multisite mode – need to done site by site before erasing folder !
Please can you tell me how to delete plugin files from my installation? Or is that possible?
It was overall ok but it was just not suiting my purposes. Now I need it deleted please! ??
Thank you!

Hi, I installed the plugin just for testing purposes with my multisite installation, then I activated it on just one of the blogs and then deactivated it and went to Network admin to delete it. However, I receive the following error message that I cannot delete it:
Impossible to erase plugin settings in multisite mode – need to done site by site before erasing folder !
How can I delete that plugin now? Thanks

I only recently started with WP. I have a holiday rental site in 3 languages and needed a WP plugin to do the job. Xili is absolutely great.Yes, there is a learning curve and some things (MENU!!!) are pretty unintuitive. But once you get the hang of it, it’s great. Multilanguage menus, posts, recent post widgets, categories (with xili-dictionary), you name it. It even allows you to have different menu entries for different languages, so you don’t have to exactly mirror everything.
Thanks guys!

This plugin is on the way to become useful but it has two major problems:
? The UI is not as self-explanatory as it ought to be.
? The poor English used in parts of the plugin and in parts of the documentation makes it hard to understand what to do at times.
An example of the former is that while it’s easy to find how to translate posts (just click the “Create and edit” link in the “Translations of this post” section below the editing area for the post) – there is no obvious pointer to how to make the language menu appear. If you search through the settings you are likely to find it eventually (I did) but some kind of hint of how to do it when you start translating would have been very helpful.
(Hint: go to “Appearance” –> “Menus” in the general settings and add the xili language menu. It’d be great if there were some kind of warning in the xili language plugin if this hasn’t been done (or at least some kind of hint the first time you add a translation).)
A getting started guide would be really helpful too. There is a forum and a blog but they mostly address random questions and information about plugin updates, not how to get started. Even the FAQ doesn’t show the necessary steps to get it up and running to the point that you have (i) a translated post and (ii) a working language menu which also (iii) changes the language of the interface.
The second point (poor English) is only a minor nuisance sometimes, and sometimes it makes it pretty hard to understand what should be done. In the text below, for example, I understand that I should be careful about checking the checkbox below the text and that all the xili-language data will be erased if I do check it, but I don’t get the part about doing it after deactivating the plugin (what happens if I don’t deactivate the plugin first, is it still bad or nothing happens?) and I assume “(only multilingual features)” is trying to reassure me that the posts themselves will remain intact but I’m not certain I got that right:
“CAUTION: When checking below, after deactivating xili-language plugin, if delete it through plugins list, ALL the xili-language datas in database will be definitively ERASED !!! (only multilingual features). See Wiki for more details”
A cleanup of the language both in the plugin itself and in the documentation would be really helpful.

After trying different language plugins, and desperately thinking creating three different sites (one for each language) with links between them, I finally found THIS!!
A little hard to understand in the beginning, but after a while you notice how flexible and amazing it is! It has an easy interface and the developers have a very clear support site. Thank you!

perhaps it is hard initially to work with it, but step after step, we have discovered, as web designer the long story (versioning) since WP 2.3 providing more more features.
Compared to the other famous polylang here with xili-language plugin:
