The default behavior of WordPress is to apply the user locale preference to the admin back-end only – the WPSSO User Locale Selector add-on can optionally extend the locale preference to the front-end webpage as well. ### Do you use the Polylang plugin? If the Polylang plugin is detected, the locale selector will automatically use the correct Polylang language URLs. ### WPSSO Core Required WPSSO User Locale Selector is an add-on for the [WPSSO Core plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/), which creates extensive and complete structured data to present your content at its best for social sites and search results – no matter how URLs are shared, reshared, messaged, posted, embedded, or crawled. ## Screenshots * [[ * WPSSO User Locale selector in the WordPress toolbar menu. ## Installation ### Install and Uninstall * [Install the WPSSO User Locale Selector add-on](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/installation/install-the-plugin/). * [Uninstall the WPSSO User Locale Selector add-on](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/installation/uninstall-the-plugin/). ## FAQ ### Frequently Asked Questions * None. ### Notes and Documentation * [Developer Resources](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/) - [Filters](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/) * [All Filters](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/all/) * [Filter Examples](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/examples/) - [Disable User Locale on Front-End](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/examples/disable-user-locale-on-front-end/) - [Modify the Menu Title](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/examples/modify-the-menu-title/) - [Modify the Redirect URL](https://wpsso.com/docs/plugins/wpsso-user-locale/notes/developer/filters/examples/modify-the-redirect-url/) ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/c4e1aca6a8188c7b85a5e850e3346f08b806a22006baabe8e94e208b45bf263d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-35921/)󠁿 [M.
