What is WPML Export and Import GPL?

On their own, WordPress export/import plugins move data but don’t set languages or connect translations. This is where WPML Export and Import comes in. It works with many popular export plugins and tools to:

• Add language information to exports
• Keep imported content hidden until your translations are connected
• Assign correct language information and link translations

Before moving content to a new WordPress site, determine your method: importing from a spreadsheet or moving content between WordPress sites.

If you’re importing from a spreadsheet, see how to prepare CSV/XML files for a multilingual data import with WPML Export and Import.

Supported WPML Export and Import GPL Plugins and Tools

When used with these plugins, WPML Export and Import automatically adds the necessary language information to the export file. You don’t have to do anything else.

WPML Export and Import GPL – Required Plugins

Install and activate all of the required plugins on both your export and import sites:

1. A supported WordPress export and import plugin or tool
2. WPML
3. WPML String Translation
4. WPML Export and Import
5. WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce (only if you’re exporting and importing WooCommerce products)

On your import site, make sure to set up WPML with the languages you’re importing.

1. Export Your Multilingual Content

Follow your export plugin’s documentation to export your multilingual content. WPML Export and Import supports various workflows and doesn’t add any extra steps:

• You can export all multilingual site content in one file or generate separate files for each language.
• If you’re using a plugin like WP All Export, generate separate files for taxonomies and posts.
• If you’re using the built-in WooCommerce exporter, you can easily export all product data in all languages in one file.

2. Import Your Multilingual Content
On your new site, choose the import workflow based on your export method:

1. If you have separate files for taxonomies and post types, import taxonomies first, then posts.
2. If you created separate files for each language, import each language file before running WPML Export and Import.

Until you run WPML Export and Import, you’ll see all imported content under the default language and in Draft status. Learn more about how and why WPML Export and Import manages imported content visibility.

3. Run WPML Export and Import

To assign language information and connect translations:

1. Go to WPML → Export and Import.
2. Click the Run WPML Import button and let WPML Export and Import automatically go through the steps.

Check your imported content on the backend and front-end. Ensure they display in the correct language and link to translations.

If any taxonomy translations are missing or disconnected, manually connect them to the default language term.

You don’t have to run WPML Export and Import manually if you’ve scheduled automatic imports. You can schedule the plugin to run on its own whenever an import is completed.
