3.9 WPML Support for WooCommerce (Multilingual Automation)

This guide covers the configuration and usage of the WPML (WordPress Multilingual Plugin) integration within Fozzels. This feature allows you to automate content generation and synchronization for every language locale of your store within a single integration.

Feature Overview

Fozzels’ integration with WPML enables you to manage complex multilingual structures without the need for separate connections for each language.

Key Benefits:

• Locale Identification: Automatic detection of all active website languages via API.

• Flexible Mapping: Direct content to the correct language versions of your products, including:

  • Standard fields (Title, Description, Short Description);

  • SEO Plugins (Yoast SEO or All in One SEO);

  • Custom Fields (ACF - Advanced Custom Fields).

• Workflow Efficiency: Manage global catalogs from a single interface.
  
  
  

Integration Setup in Fozzels

To activate multilingual support, follow this step-by-step algorithm:

1. Enable Functionality

1. Navigate to the Integrations section and select your WooCommerce integration.

2. In the Configuration tab, locate the WPML settings block.

3. Toggle on "Enable WPML Multilingual Support".

4. Crucial: Click the "SAVE" button to commit these changes to your configuration.
   
   
   

2. Initialize Locales (Websites & Stores)

Once saved, you need to fetch the language list from your WordPress site:

1. Switch to the Websites & Stores tab within your integration settings.

2. Click the "Pull Stores/Websites" button. Fozzels will query your WordPress site to retrieve all configured languages.

3. In the list that appears, activate (toggle on) the specific languages you intend to manage.
   
   
   

3. Catalog Synchronization

This is the final and most important step to make products visible:

• RE-RUN THE PRODUCT PULL. This is mandatory so the system can identify the relationships between different language versions of your products and load them into your Fozzels catalogs as individual objects for processing. Without this step, products for new locales will not appear in the system.

The Super-Power Combo: WPML + ACF + AIOSEO

Fozzels allows you to combine WPML with market-leading plugins for maximum automation. This is the "gold standard" for professional e-commerce:

• WPML + SEO (Yoast or AIOSEO): Generate unique localized Keywords, Meta Titles, and Descriptions for every language version. (Note: Use only one SEO plugin at a time to avoid conflicts).

• WPML + ACF (Advanced Custom Fields): Sync localized content into custom fields (e.g., technical specifications, marketing blocks, or FAQs) separately for each language.

• The Ultimate Combo (WPML + ACF + AIOSEO): The most powerful scenario. This allows you to automate professional descriptions, specialized technical data, and a full SEO core for the international market simultaneously.
