GETTING STARTED

Your first steps.

Read all the details ↗
  1. Check WordPress 6.4+, PHP 8.3+ and GlotPress 4.x. Choose a readable permalink structure in Settings → Permalinks; Plain is not supported by GlotPress.
  2. Install the GlotFrame ZIP through Plugins → Add Plugin → Upload Plugin and activate it. Use the packaged ZIP supplied with a release, rather than GitHub’s automatic source archive.
  3. Open GlotFrame → Settings. The three jump links lead to Frontend & Layout, Admin & Toolbar, and Data & System.
  4. Beside the content assignments, choose Create block layout. Add blocks, give the layout a title and publish it. Create separate layouts for the header and footer if needed.
  5. Select the published layouts under Header, footer and content. Choose a preset, width and spacing. Enable GlotFrame and save.
  6. Use View GlotPress and check the project list, an individual language and the translation editor, including on a small screen.

Requirements & limits

Frontend features require GlotPress 4.x and readable permalinks. Without these requirements, settings and layouts remain available; dependent features pause without deleting data.

Create layouts with WordPress blocks. Content from Bricks, Elementor or other page builders is not supported.

GlotPress continues to manage translations, permissions and exports. Statistics show current progress and contribution records, not a complete activity history or quality ranking.

A FEW QUICK ANSWERS

A few questions?

Answers from the plugin guide.

Read the complete guide ↗
Do I need GlotPress?

Yes. The translation workspace requires active GlotPress 4.x and readable permalinks. GlotFrame can still be activated without GlotPress. Prepare and save settings and layouts while dependent features pause.

How do I create headers and footers?

Open GlotFrame → Settings → Header, footer and content. Create block layouts, publish them and assign them to the desired regions.

Does it work with my theme or page builder?

GlotFrame provides its own frame using WordPress blocks. Content created with Bricks, Elementor or other page builders is not supported as GlotFrame layouts.

Does GlotFrame change my translations?

No. Projects, translations, permissions, forms, downloads and API responses remain managed by GlotPress.
