Download GlotPress translations with names that are easier to recognize and prepare for their destination. Choose a project name, keep the exported language and distinguish informal, formal or other translation sets. The translation itself stays unchanged.

Version 2.0.0 · WordPress 6.4+ · PHP 8.1+ · GlotPress 4.0+ with a permalink structure other than Plain for export features.

Activate the plugin and open Settings → GP Project Export Name. GlotPress must be active with a permalink structure other than Plain (Settings → Permalinks). Quick guide is available on the settings page even before GlotPress is ready. Start with its five steps; the advanced fields can remain unchanged.

WordPress considers 2018.09.15 newer than 2.0.0. Upload the installation ZIP under Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and confirm replacement of the existing plugin. Back up the website first. The new updater cannot retroactively run inside the unmodified old plugin. After this one-time manual change, published stable 2.x updates are handled by the included updater.

• Choose recognizable project names instead of renaming each downloaded file.
• Use the exported language, including formal and other variants.
• Check every translation set’s filename before saving changes.
• Find projects without typing their full path.
• Keep otherwise identical names distinct within a project.
• Choose which recognized naming plugin is responsible.
• Back up, transfer or reset filename settings after reviewing the changes.
• Read the five-step quick guide directly on the settings page.
