You can choose between Microsoft Azure Translator, Google Translate, or DeepL to power the WPML automatic translation feature. You can change your order preference or disable a translation engine anytime on the Automatic Translation tab.
If you’re not sure which one is best for your particular language pairs, we recommend sending a couple of pages for translation using each engine and reviewing the translations to determine your preference.
How to Set Your Order Preference
WPML allows you to set a first choice for your automatic translation engine. In case it doesn’t not support one of your language pairs, WPML will automatically use your second option as a fallback. If that second one still doesn’t support your language pairs, it will go with the third.
To set your preferred order of automatic translation engines, go to WPML → Translation Management and click the Automatic Translation tab. Then, click Settings.
Navigating to the Translation Tools settings
Expand the Automatic translation engines menu. Choose the order you prefer by dragging and dropping. Then click Apply this order to save.
Setting the preferred order of the translation engines
This new order will apply beginning with the next translation job you add to your translation basket. Translation jobs that are already pending will continue with the previously specified order.
How to Disable Translation Engines
If you are not interested in using certain translation engines, you can turn them off. This can be useful to help you save credits, or if you don’t like the translations one of the engines is providing you with.
