WP ZhConvert
Chinese Simplified/Traditional auto-converter for WordPress
WP ZhConvert serves your WordPress site in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese without writing two separate versions. Powered by OpenCC dictionary data with smart word-level conversion, it handles vocabulary differences across regions — not just character substitution — so the output reads naturally to native speakers.
SEO-friendly URL routing
Each language variant lives at its own URL path (/zh-cn/ and /zh-tw/), making both variants independently indexable by search engines. Hreflang tags signal to Google which version to surface for which audience, so a visitor from Taiwan and one from mainland China each land on the correct variant in search results.
Frictionless language switching
A floating language switcher lets visitors change variants from any page without losing context. First-time visitors get the right language automatically — WP ZhConvert detects their browser locale and serves the matching variant on arrival, with the choice remembered across sessions.
Smart word-level conversion
Naive character-by-character conversion produces awkward output that native speakers spot immediately ("软件" / "軟體" is not a character swap). WP ZhConvert uses OpenCC's word-level dictionaries plus regional vocabulary mappings, so terms like "video" / "硬盘" / "程序" convert correctly between regions.
Custom glossary for your domain
Industry-specific terms — your product names, jargon, brand vocabulary — sometimes need overrides. Define a custom glossary that takes precedence over the default dictionary, so your brand and technical terms always render the way you want, in any variant.
