Loco Translate official plugin provides easy translation management for developers, but it does not allow you to automatically translate all translatable strings unless you purchase an auto-translate API subscription, which can be expensive and requires advanced technical skills to set up.
However, if you install the Automatic Translate Addon along with the Loco Translate official plugin, you can overcome this limitation. This addon enables you to translate your theme or plugin strings into any language with just one click, without the need for an auto-translate API.
Google or Yandex Translate Widgets allow you to translate an unlimited number of characters without having to worry about the cost based on character count. On the other hand, the DeepL Doc Translator provides a limited number of free translations per day based on your IP address.
If you're manually translating strings one-by-one by copying them from Google Translate, it's time to stop. Studies show that this approach can take up to 2 days for a plugin translation, while automatic machine translation can complete the same task in just 2 to 10 minutes.
