WooCommerce Multilingual 5.1 – Compatibility, Performance, and Bug Fixes

WooCommerce Multilingual 5.1 makes your multilingual store run faster and better.

WooCommerce Multilingual Has a New Name

Due to a request from WooCommerce, we’ve renamed WooCommerce Multilingual to WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce.

Do you know what WooCommerce store owners value the most? When we talk to them about it, they point out two things:

• Stable site operation
• Compatibility with different WooCommerce add-ons

This is why WooCommerce Multilingual 5.1 focuses on compatibility, performance, and various fixes.

Better Compatibility

This release takes care of important compatibility improvements:

• We handled deprecation notices when using PHP 8.1
• We added multi-currency support for WP Super Cache

We also improved compatibility with the following plugins:

• YITH Auctions for WooCommerce
• WooCommerce Memberships
• WC Product Addons
• Germanized for WooCommerce
• Yykes Custom Product Tabs

Performance Improvements

WooCommerce Multilingual stores already run smoothly, but we always try to improve performance. This version makes your store leaner:

• Saving a variable product translation is now 23% faster
• A Shop page displaying variable products is now 28% faster
• There are now 17 queries less on every front-end request **

** This improvement requires WPML 4.6 scheduled for release in January 2023.

Bug Fixes

Last but not least, we fixed many bugs related to:

• Permalinks
• Reviews & ratings
• Multi-currency

Plus, an array of other bugs related to different issues.
