WooCommerce is a powerful ecommerce plugin for WordPress. WPML is a powerful plugin for multilingual sites.

Together, these two plugins can help you create a powerful online store that can reach customers all over the world. Here’s how you can use WPML in WooCommerce:

When you install WooCommerce, you’ll be prompted to install WPML as well. If you haven’t already installed WPML, go ahead and do so now. Once both plugins are installed and activated, you’ll need to configure WPML for WooCommerce.

Start by going to the WPML-> Languages page. Here, you can choose your default language and add additional languages that you want to support. Once you’ve added your languages, go to the WPML-> String Translation page.

On this page, you’ll see a list of strings that need to be translated. Select all of the strings and add them to the “Translation basket. “

Next, go to the WooCommerce-> Settings page and select the “General” tab. Scroll down to the “Store Language” section and select the language you want to use for your store.

Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click “Save Changes. “

Now that WooCommerce is configured to use WPML, you need to configure your products. Start by going to the Products-> All Products page and selecting the product you want to translate.

In the “Language” dropdown menu, select the language you want to translate the product into. Enter your translated product title, description, and other fields in the appropriate language fields.

Next, go to the Products-> Categories page and add your translated category names. Finally, go to the Products-> Attributes page and add your translated attribute names.

Now that your products are configured for multiple languages, customers will be able to shop in their own language. When they add a product to their cart, they’ll be able to choose their preferred language from a dropdown menu. And when they checkout, they’ll see all of the checkout information in their chosen language.
