What you'll learn

Almost 40% of WordPress downloads are for non-English, localized versions. That potentially means that if your plugin or theme is not localized, you could -- literally -- be speaking a different language than your users. This course will help to correct that; we’ll cover all of the internationalization functions, how to use them, and how to work with translators and language files to make your code fully translatable.
