Is Nelio A/B Testing Compatible with the WPML Multilingual Plugin?

Yes. Nelio A/B Testing is compatible with WPML and lets you create tests for content in the different languages available on your WordPress site.

Nelio A/B Testing treats each translated page, post, or other piece of content as an independent WordPress item. For example, if WPML links an English “Pricing” page to its Spanish translation “Precios,” Nelio A/B Testing treats them as two separate pages that can be tested independently.

How Can I Test WPML Translations?

To create a test for translated content:

1. In your WordPress Dashboard, use WPML’s language selector to switch to the language you want to test.
2. Make sure the translated page, post, or other content is available in the Dashboard.
3. Create the appropriate test in Nelio A/B Testing and select the translated content as the tested element.
4. Create and configure your variants, goals, and other test settings as usual.

For example, to test the Spanish translation of a page, switch your WordPress Dashboard to Spanish and then create a Page Test for that translated page.

You can follow the same process for content in any language managed with WPML.

Can I Translate Test Variants with WPML?

No. Variants created by Nelio A/B Testing can’t be translated with WPML.

Test variants are created specifically for use within their test and should be accessed and edited from the corresponding test in Nelio A/B Testing.

If you want to test content in another language, switch to that language in WPML and create a separate test for the translated content.

Why Can’t I See Translated Test Variants?

Variants created by Nelio A/B Testing are associated with their test and aren’t regular translated content managed by WPML.

To access or edit a variant, open the test in Nelio A/B Testing and edit the variant from there.
