## Description

Bogo is a straight-forward multilingual plugin for WordPress.

The core of WordPress itself has the built-in localization capability so you can
use the dashboard and theme in one language other than English. Bogo expands this
capability to let you easily build a multilingual blog on a single WordPress install.

Here are some technical details for those interested. Bogo plugin assigns [one language per post](https://wordpress.org/support/article/multilingual-wordpress/#different-types-of-multilingual-plugins).
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
 2.  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**).
 3.  Select your language for admin screen
 4.  Bogo lets each logged-in user select a language for their admin screen UI. Select
     a language from the menu on the [**Toolbar**](https://wordpress.org/support/article/administration-screens/#toolbar-keeping-it-all-together),
     or from the menu in the **Profile** screen (**Users > Your Profile**) if the **
     Toolbar** is invisible.
 5.  Translate your posts and pages
 6.  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.
 7.  Add language switcher widgets
 8.  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**).
 9.  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:
 10.     ```
         <?php echo do_shortcode( '[bogo]' ); ?>
         ```

 [Jean Werk](https://profiles.wordpress.org/brightbluegum/) 25 octobre 2025

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?

### 󠀁[Amazing plugin!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/amazing-plugin-2808/)󠁿

 [basbuis](https://profiles.wordpress.org/basbuis/) 29 septembre 2025

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!

### 󠀁[Best Plugin for dev](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/best-plugin-for-dev/)󠁿

 [pcatapan](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pakofocus/) 23 septembre 2025

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.

### 󠀁[Super but…](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/super-but-3/)󠁿

 [bbergerac](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bbergerac/) 14 janvier 2025

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 has a poor feature set](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-plugin-has-a-poor-feature-set/)󠁿

 [michman31](https://profiles.wordpress.org/michman31/) 20 juillet 2024

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.
