LangSpector is a multilingual quality-audit plugin for WordPress websites using Polylang.

It helps identify translation relationship problems, wrong-language links and, with Pro, additional inconsistencies involving taxonomies, menus, language usage, SEO metadata and image ALT text.

No. LangSpector is read-only by design. It reports potential problems but does not automatically edit posts, pages, translations, menus, taxonomies, SEO metadata or Polylang relationships.

No. LangSpector is an auditing tool, not a translation plugin or translation service.

No. LangSpector is specifically designed for WordPress websites using Polylang and requires Polylang to be active.

No. Context matters, particularly with language detection and deliberately unusual multilingual configurations.

LangSpector helps you identify elements worth checking. You should review the affected content before making a change.

No. The current Free edition scans all eligible content included in the LangSpector Free audit, with no artificial scan limit.

The Free edition includes the core multilingual audit, including:

• Polylang translation relationship checks
• Wrong-language internal links
• Suggested translated destinations where available
• Audit reporting and health score
• Ignore and Reactivate controls

No. The Free edition does not require a LangSpector Pro license.

Yes. That is one of the main purposes of the Free edition. You can run the core audit across your actual eligible content before deciding whether the additional Pro checks are useful to you.

LangSpector Pro adds advanced checks including:

• Multilingual taxonomies
• Classic WordPress navigation menus
• Mixed-language passage detection
• Yoast SEO metadata checks
• Rank Math metadata checks
• Multilingual image ALT checks
• Review-level findings
• Advanced report filters

No. LangSpector Pro extends the Free plugin. Both LangSpector Free and LangSpector Pro must remain installed and active.

No. The Pro feature set is the same. The difference between the plans is the number of installations covered by the license.

No. Pro follows exactly the same read-only principle as Free.

No. LangSpector’s language analysis runs locally on your WordPress installation and does not require an external AI or cloud language-analysis service.

The current language engine includes 73 validated language profiles. During an audit, LangSpector focuses on relevant languages configured in Polylang.

Yes. Automatic language identification is not infallible, especially with short text, proper names or similar languages.

LangSpector uses conservative thresholds and Review-level findings where appropriate, but human verification remains important.

The score gives an overall 0–100 indication based on affected content and finding severity.

It is intended as an overview. The individual findings are more important than the score itself.

The finding is treated as intentional, removed from active counts and excluded from the health score.

If the same situation appears in a later audit, LangSpector can continue to recognise it as ignored.

Yes. Use Reactivate to return it to the active findings.

Yes. LangSpector is designed for repeated audits so you can check the site again after corrections or future multilingual changes.

Current Pro plans cover:

• 1 production site + 1 test environment
• 5 production sites + 5 test environments
• 25 production sites + 25 test environments
• Founder Lifetime: 1 production site + 1 test environment

Recognised test environments use the separate test allowance included with your license rather than the production-site allowance.

Yes. Open My installations, authenticate with the complete license key and deactivate an installation you no longer use.

A previously verified Pro installation has a seven-day offline grace period. A successful license verification is required again after that period.

The button requests a fresh status from the license server immediately and updates the locally stored license state.

• 1 Site: 49 € / year
• 5 Sites: 99 € / year
• 25 Sites: 199 € / year
• Founder Lifetime – 1 Site: 99 € one-time payment while available

Yes. The LangSpector pricing display is configured to show prices including VAT.

The current purchasing system uses Stripe Checkout.

The 1, 5 and 25-site plans are annual subscription licenses and are intended to renew yearly unless future renewal is cancelled.

Cancellation stops the next automatic renewal. The already-paid license period continues until its scheduled end.

No. Founder Lifetime is a one-time purchase and does not use an annual subscription. Availability is limited to 100 paid Founder licenses.

No. Posts, pages, SEO text, ALT text, audit findings and your health score are not required for license validation.

Technical information required for licensing can include the license key, site URL, installation identifier, environment type and Pro version when checking for updates.

See the Privacy & Security page for more detail.

LangSpector’s license database does not store your card number or card security code. Payments are processed through Stripe Checkout.
