Connect pages by language and region

Hreflang Manager Pro records relationships between WordPress pages with alternate versions in different languages, scripts, or countries. It works with configurations across separate websites and sites within a WordPress network. Language values use ISO 639-1, script values use ISO 15924, and country values use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. You can also choose default languages, scripts, and countries.

Choose where to manage relationships

Enter hreflang information in the post editor alongside content, or manage it from a centralized menu. These are two ways to configure the same page relationships. For a WordPress network, Pro can synchronize hreflang data across all sites when the same relationships apply.

Review tags and provide alternate choices

The front-end tag inspector lets you review hreflang implementation. The Hreflang Checker detects implementation issues, while the Locale Selector shows available alternate versions for visitors. These utilities have distinct roles: one reviews tag implementation, another checks for issues, and the selector presents alternate pages.

• XML sitemaps: Add hreflang information to XML sitemaps.
• Spreadsheet imports: Import prepared hreflang data from spreadsheets.
• Expanded connections: Configure up to 100 alternate versions per connection.

The plugin automatically deletes hreflang data associated with deleted posts, removing relationships that no longer belong to available content.

Set up and check your configuration

1. Install Hreflang Manager Pro through the WordPress administration area and activate it.
2. Choose whether to configure relationships in the post editor or from the centralized menu.
3. Set the relevant languages, scripts, countries, and alternate page connections.
4. For a network, use synchronization when the same relationships apply across sites.
5. Review the front-end tags with the tag inspector and use the Hreflang Checker to investigate issues.
6. Where appropriate, add hreflang information to XML sitemaps or import prepared spreadsheet data.

The add-on documentation also includes guidance for manually adding and verifying hreflang data.
