LANGSPECTOR FEATURES
A deeper look at your multilingual WordPress site.
LangSpector combines structural, link and language checks to help you find inconsistencies across websites powered by WordPress and Polylang.
Built for problems that are difficult to spot manually.
A multilingual page can appear perfectly correct while its translation relationship, internal links, metadata or navigation point somewhere they shouldn’t.
LangSpector brings these checks together in a structured report without automatically modifying the website.
CORE FEATURES · FREE
The essential multilingual audit.
LangSpector Free scans all eligible content. Its core audit is not restricted to a small sample of your website.
01 · TRANSLATIONS
Polylang translation relationships
LangSpector checks the relationships connecting translated posts and pages and reports relationships that are invalid or inconsistent.
Intentionally untranslated content is not automatically treated as an error.
02 · LINKS
Wrong-language internal links
An English page may accidentally link to a French, German or Spanish version of another page even though the correct English translation exists.
LangSpector detects these situations so they can be reviewed and corrected.
03 · SUGGESTIONS
Suggested translated destination
When LangSpector identifies a wrong-language internal link and finds the corresponding translation, the report can provide the matching destination URL.
You still decide whether the suggested destination is appropriate.
04 · OVERVIEW
Overall audit score
LangSpector provides a 0–100 overview based on affected content and the severity of active findings.
The score is an indicator. The detailed findings remain the most important part of the audit.
05 · CONTROL
Ignore & Reactivate
Not every unusual configuration is a mistake. Findings that are intentional can be ignored so they no longer affect future audits or the score.
An ignored finding can be reactivated whenever you want.
06 · COVERAGE
No Free content quota
The Free edition scans all eligible content instead of stopping after a fixed number of posts or pages.
This lets you evaluate the core audit on your actual website.
LANGSPECTOR PRO
Extend the audit beyond the core content structure.
Pro activates additional checks for taxonomies, navigation, language consistency, SEO metadata and translated image information.
PRO · TAXONOMIES
Check multilingual taxonomy consistency.
Categories, tags and other translated taxonomies can introduce inconsistencies that are easy to overlook when reviewing posts individually.
LangSpector Pro checks taxonomy assignments and multilingual taxonomy links for language inconsistencies.
What can be detected?
- A content item assigned to a term in another language
- A corresponding translated term that exists but is not being used
- Taxonomy links pointing to the wrong language version
- Cases requiring manual verification when no direct replacement is certain
PRO · NAVIGATION
Audit classic multilingual menus.
Navigation mistakes can send visitors into another language without anything appearing obviously wrong in the menu itself.
LangSpector Pro inspects classic WordPress menus associated with Polylang languages.
Menu checks include
- Post and page menu items pointing to another language
- Taxonomy menu items pointing to another language
- Internal custom URLs where a translated equivalent exists
- Structural differences between translated menus that may deserve review
PRO · LANGUAGE CONSISTENCY
Find passages that may belong to another language.
Copied paragraphs, forgotten translations and partially translated content can remain hidden inside otherwise correct pages.
Local detection
Language analysis runs directly on your WordPress installation.
73 validated profiles
LangSpector includes compact language profiles that have been internally validated for supported languages.
Relevant comparisons
The detector compares content against the languages actually configured in Polylang.
Conservative reporting
Uncertain situations are deliberately treated cautiously to reduce unnecessary findings.
PRO · SEO
Review multilingual SEO metadata.
A translated page can have perfectly correct visible content while its manually entered SEO title or description remains in another language.
LangSpector Pro can inspect explicit metadata created with supported SEO plugins.
Supported checks
Yoast SEO
- SEO title language
- Meta description language
Rank Math
- SEO title language
- Meta description language
PRO · IMAGE ALT TEXT
Check multilingual ALT consistency without flooding the report.
LangSpector is not a generic missing-ALT checker. Its image checks focus specifically on multilingual inconsistencies.
Possible wrong language
ALT text that contains sufficiently strong linguistic evidence of another configured language can be flagged for manual review.
Translation gaps
When translated media exists and another language has ALT text while the current version does not, LangSpector can highlight the discrepancy.
STRUCTURED REPORTING
Not every finding means the same thing.
LangSpector uses different severity levels so stronger structural problems can be distinguished from findings that primarily require human review.
Critical
Used for the strongest structural multilingual problems.
Important
Significant inconsistencies that deserve attention.
Warning
Potential issues supported by meaningful evidence.
Review
Situations where manual verification is preferable to an automatic conclusion.
PRO · ADVANCED FILTERS
Focus on the findings you want to review.
Large multilingual websites can generate substantial reports. LangSpector Pro adds filters that make those results easier to investigate.
Filter the report by
- Severity
- Finding type
- Language
- Active or ignored status
READ-ONLY BY DESIGN
Powerful checks without automatic corrections.
Every LangSpector feature follows the same principle: detect, explain and report.
LangSpector does not update posts, terms, menus, SEO fields or Polylang relationships. The final decision always remains yours.
