Title: qTranslate META Author: jstar198 Published: January 11, 2010 Last modified: July 18, 2012 --- Search plugins This plugin **hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress**. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/qtranslate-meta.svg) # qTranslate META By [jstar198](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jstar198/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/qtranslate-meta.zip) * [Details](https://lin.wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/#description) * [Reviews](https://lin.wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/#reviews) * [Installation](https://lin.wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/#installation) * [Development](https://lin.wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate-meta/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/qtranslate-meta/) ## Description Adds an extra panel to the post/page edit page which allows you to enter the META keywords & description for that page in each enabled language. Also adds an optional browser title override (does not affect post title). Note 1: This plugin requires that [qTranslate](http://www.qianqin.de/qtranslate/) is installed and activated. Note 2: This plugin does not work well with [All In One SEO](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-seo-pack/) and potentially any other plugin or theme which tries to set your META tags. #### Thanks I’d like to thank the following people for their contributions (in chronological order): * Victor Berchet — Help with initial localisation; French translation * Benoit Gauthier — autosave bug fix * Filippo Pisano — Italian translation * [Marcis G.](http://pc.de/) — Belorussian translation * Almaz — Russian translation * [Renate Kramer](http://www.heftrucknederland.nl/) — German translation * [Rene](http://wpwebshop.com/blog/) — Dutch translation * banane — Bugs with WordPress 3 compatability. * Alexander of [Web Hosting Geeks](http://webhostinggeeks.com/) — Romanian translation * Branco Radenovich of [Web Hosting Watch](http://webhostingw.com/) — Slovakian translation ## Installation 1. Upload/Copy folder to your blog’s plugin directory. 2. Ideally disable any other SEO plugins/features, such as AIOSEO and Theme Hybrid’s SEO functionality. 3. Activate the plugin. 4. When adding/editing any post/page, use the simple interface to set your META tags. 5. You can also view a summary of your page’s META tags via Pages -> META Summary. ## FAQ How do translate my site title/tagline? In **Settings → General**, use the qTranslate shortcodes, e.g.: `[:en]English title[: it]Titolo italiano`. (This is a feature of qTranslate itself, not of qTranslate META). My title is not as I expect This often has to do with your theme and any other plugins that may hook onto the` wp_title` filter. There is no straight answer for this, you simply have to figure out what’s going on and look closely at your theme, often in the `header.php` file. See the comments on [this blog post](http://blog.johnjcamilleri.com/2010/01/qtranslate-and-multilingual-meta-tags/) for ideas. Why does it not work with AIOSEO / other SEO plugins? Yes, I know this may be a drawback for some users. It may be possible that they can happily coexist, but I only developed this plugin for my own needs and don’t really have the time to make it play nice with other SEO plugins, sorry! :/ Why do I get a warning when downloading the META summary to Excel? When doing this you will get a warning saying: ``` The file you are trying to open, '...', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted sources before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now? ``` This is normal, because the file generated is not actually Excel but HTML. However Excel will successfully convert it, so just click yes to the warning and then save a copy of the downloaded file. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a8c735aa0db6a165eb7f50b276fe6de46b51dfd7c51e8f21cc57d29a2e1190a1? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Nice plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-plugin-1811/)󠁿 [kostasmorph13](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kostasmorph13/) February 7, 2017 Nice plugin and easy to use.
