motaword
This module automatically translates your website content into multiple languages, ensuring that translations are updated whenever content changes. It provides an in-page language switcher for visitors and a robust platform for managing translations, including options for AI or human translation services.
MotaWord for Drupal translates your site into 100+ languages automatically. You write in one language; your visitors read in theirs. When you update a page, the translations update too.
Features
- Automatic translation, automatically fresh — edits to nodes, terms, menus, themes, and blocks trigger a re-translation behind the scenes.
- In-page language picker — a language switcher is injected into every page so visitors can change languages from their browser. Admin-only preview mode is supported.
- Custom language switchers — tag your own links with
localize-page-as-fr,localize-as-es-MX, ornolocalizeand the module rewrites them correctly, both for search engines and for visitors. - Served from a global CDN — translated pages are cached close to your visitors, so adding languages doesn't slow your site down.
- A full language operations platform behind it — your MotaWord dashboard is where you manage everything about how your site speaks other languages: pick which languages to support, tune the AI translation, edit translations directly in a side-by-side editor, order professional human translation for the pages that matter most, request localization and DTP services for documents and assets, and keep your terminology consistent with glossaries and style guides. The plugin is the connector; MotaWord is where the work happens.
- Multisite-aware — each site has its own configuration.
- Drupal 9, 10, and 11.
