MultilingualPress Release 4.3.0

MultilingualPress version 4.3.0 has just been released on our online store! In addition to some fixes and compatibility updates, this version further enhances our plugin by expanding the number of referenced sites: external sites can now be linked to the multisite network where MultilingualPress was initially installed. Let’s take a closer look at this new feature.

Support for external sites

As is well known, MultilingualPress allows the creation of connections between content belonging to different subsites of the Multisite network to manage translations optimally. Now, MultilingualPress also allows for linking external sites: this new capability expands the reach of the plugin beyond the WordPress ecosystem, enabling the linking of external websites regardless of their development platform, whether it’s a custom-built site, a CMS-driven site, or any other type of website.

Indeed, it defines an external reference link for a specific language for each post type where possible. This link will be used, by the language menu and automatic redirect functions, to direct the users when they need to access specific content in a language managed on an external site. Further info is available in MultilingualPress External sites support.

MultilingualPress continues to evolve, providing users with powerful tools to manage multilingual websites effectively. Stay tuned for more updates and enhancements as we strive to deliver the best multilingual experience for our users.
