This is the repository that the WPML plugin uses to keep the list of language configuration files always up to date.
Each plugin / theme can have a language configuration file that will tell WPML how to translate its data. You have more information about creating language configuration files over here:
https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/
Language configuration files can be stored directly in the root folder of the plugin / theme where they belong or they can be added to this repository. The WPML plugin will periodically read this repository to keep up to date.
The language configuration repository has:
- An index file to keep items organized under plugins and themes: config-index.xml
- A folder for each entry in the index file with a
wpml-config.xml
file inside.
There are a couple of requisites:
- The XML entry has to be inside one of these elements:
<plugins>
or<themes>
- The id attribute in the index file corresponds to the folder name and must match the folder name of the plugin or theme.
- The name of the plugin has to match the name of the plugin in its header.
For example:
<item id="sitepress-multilingual-cms" override_local="true">WPML Multilingual CMS</item>
