## Description

MTCodes Translator is a lightweight multilingual plugin with no dependencies and
no theme coupling, built by [MTCodes](https://mtcodes.com).

 * **Unlimited languages** — every non-default language is served under its own 
   URL prefix (`/bs/`, `/fr/`, `/de/`, …); the default language stays at the site
   root.
 * **Works with any builder** — the fully rendered HTML is parsed and every text
   node (plus `alt`, `title`, `placeholder`, `aria-label` and SEO meta) is swapped
   against the translations table. Strings without a translation stay in the default
   language and appear in the admin editor automatically.
 * **SEO-ready** — hreflang alternates with `x-default` on every page, self-referencing
   canonicals on translated URLs, per-language `<html lang>` and `og:locale`, translated`
   <title>` and meta description, and language variants of all pages in the core
   XML sitemap.
 * **Language switcher** — `[mtml_switcher]` shortcode, `mtml_switcher()` template
   tag, or build your own with `mtml_languages()`, `mtml_lang_url()` and `mtml_current_lang()`.
 * **Importer** — optionally imports a theme dictionary file (`inc/i18n.php` returning`
   array( 'lang' => array( 'key' => 'text' ) )`).

## FAQ

### Do I need to duplicate my pages per language?

No. One page serves all languages; the plugin translates the rendered output per
URL.

### What happens to untranslated strings?

They are shown in the default language and collected in the admin editor, sorted
newest first.
