Work smarter. With a connector
No need for all the manual work. Adding a connector to your system opens up an entirely new approach to dealing with content in multiple languages. In brief: a connector is the key to a simple, streamlined translation process.
What is a connector?
As the name suggests, a “connector” (or an “integration”) provides a connection between two different systems that helps these two systems to work together.
In our context – i.e. the world of translation – a connector represents a connection between our translation tool and your system (for example, CMS, PIM, an e-commerce platform, a documentation management system or similar).
An integration between our system and yours makes it possible, with just a few clicks, to send your texts to our system for translation and then have the translations sent directly back to your system afterwards.
It makes sense!
A connector between your system and our translation tool is ideal when, for example:
You regularly update your website with new content that needs to be synchronised in all the languages you use.
You publish online catalogues in multiple languages, which require ongoing maintenance.
Your software receives regular updates which need to apply in multiple languages.
You work with multilingual support databases.
There are many more potential scenarios, of course. Tell us about yours. Then we’ll work out what might make most sense for you.
The benefits of a connector
Out-of-the-box solution
Connectors are integrations that have already been tested and made user-friendly.
Familiar interface
Connectors function as a plugin for your system, so there is no need to learn a new interface.
Security
Secure handling of your content.
Risk minimisation
The high degree of automation helps you minimise the risk of errors.
Official WPML partner
Did you know that more than 60% of all CMS users work with WordPress? Or that more than 43% of all the websites in the world are created in WordPress?
In addition, 80% of the purchase decisions made by your customers are based on online research. So there is every reason to make sure your WordPress website is fluent in all your languages.
Have your website translated in just a few clicks
We are an official translation partner with WPML (the WordPress Multilingual Plugin). This means that a few clicks are all you need to send us your website texts for translation. We then return the translations directly to your WordPress platform, ready for publication.
How WPML works
Have us translate precisely what you need, precisely when you need it.
After you have installed the WPML plugin, it is quick and easy to select the pages you need translated – and choose the languages they need to be translated into.
Order your translation with just a few clicks.
Once you have selected the content, choose World Translation as the translation provider and send the relevant pages off for translation at the click of a single button.
Receive the translation automatically, inserted directly in precisely the right place.
When the translation is complete, the content can be uploaded automatically so that it is sent directly to the right place on your website, without your having to do anything at all.
Get off to a good start with us
So how can you start using WPML with us? It’s not difficult at all.
In the “Getting Started” guide, you can see which initial steps you need to take:
Install the relevant WPML plugins in your WordPress setupRequest an activation code (API Token), which allows you to connect your website with our system
Use the WPML plugin in WordPress to send us the content you need to have translated, and we’ll send you a no-obligation quote for the work
Have the finished translations returned directly to your WordPress system and implement them on your website
Get off to a good start with us
Once you have installed WPML and linked up with us via your activation code, you can use the WPML website word count tool to count the words in your content. Send us the total word count, and we’ll send you a quote for the translation.
Did you know…
… that we only translate sections of text that have changed in relation to the translations we have previously done for you? This means you can save more and more money in the long run!
Case study: quality check of website and integration with WordPress
Viemose DGS already ran a multilingual website, but had some doubts about the quality of the texts. Our working relationship kicked off with a thorough quality check of the texts and resulted in an integration between our two systems with a view to streamlining the translation process.
