Custom WordPress Translation Plugin Development Needed

Upwork • , US • Remote

Posted on: 22nd March, 2025
Employment Type: CONTRACTOR

Job Description

We are seeking an experienced WordPress plugin developer to create a multilingual translation plugin that fully integrates with our website’s theme customization and works seamlessly with any other WordPress theme.

The plugin must be fully compatible with our custom-built functionality at pickascholarship.com, which includes a custom post type for scholarships with specific back-end and front-end modifications.

Key Requirements:

Multilingual Support:

The plugin must support translations for the following languages:

English (default)

Spanish

French

Portuguese

German

SEO-Friendly Translations:

No browser-based auto-translation (e.g., Google Translate). Each translated post, page, or custom post (such as a scholarship) must have its own static URL with a language prefix, such as:

https://www.pickascholarship.com/en/some-post/

https://www.pickascholarship.com/en/scholarship/some-scholarship/

https://www.pickascholarship.com/es/some-post/

https://www.pickascholarship.com/es/scholarship/some-scholarship/

Language Switcher:

A language switcher should be included, with the option to be placed via shortcode or integrated directly into the site’s front end.

AI-Powered Translation Support:

Due to the large volume of existing English content (posts, pages, and scholarships), the plugin should include an option in the WordPress admin panel to generate translations using the OpenAI API. This will help accelerate the translation process, while still allowing for manual editing.

Complete Site Translation Capabilities:

The plugin must support translation of all site components, including:

URLs (slugs)

Menus

Custom post types and custom fields related to the scholarships database (both back-end and front-end)

Any other text content across the site

For example, under the URL:

https://www.pickascholarship.com/de/...

all German-language content will be served on this sub-site, including a unique menu and other language-specific elements.

This plugin must be in the Wordpress.org repository so it must be submitted to them and approved as a SAVVY SUB S.R.L. property. All the rights to the plugin will belong to the company, SAVVY HUB S.R.L.

If you are confident in building a high-quality, performance-optimized WordPress translation plugin that meets all the above requirements, we’d love to hear from you.
