Choose where to manage alternate pages

Hreflang Manager Pro lets WordPress sites describe relationships between pages available in different languages, scripts, or countries. Manage data across separate websites or websites in a WordPress network. The post editor keeps configuration alongside a page; the centralized menu puts it in one administrative location.

Set locale values and connection capacity

Language values use ISO 639-1, script values use ISO 15924, and country values use ISO 3166-1 alpha-2. You can select default languages, scripts, and countries to describe language and regional combinations. Pro supports up to 100 alternate versions per connection.

Review and manage hreflang data

  • Front-end tag inspector: review the hreflang tags generated for a page.
  • Hreflang Checker: detect implementation issues.
  • Locale Selector: show available alternate versions to visitors.
  • Network synchronization: synchronize hreflang data across all sites in a WordPress network.
  • XML sitemap support: add hreflang information to XML sitemaps.
  • Spreadsheet imports: import prepared hreflang data.

These utilities fit sites with many related pages or alternate content maintained across multiple WordPress sites. Synchronization applies when the same relationships belong across the network; spreadsheet importing can provide a starting point for larger sets.

Configure and check page connections

  1. Install and activate the add-on in WordPress.
  2. Choose whether to configure hreflang data in the post editor or from the centralized menu.
  3. Set the relevant languages, scripts, countries, and alternate page connections.
  4. For a network, synchronize data when the same relationships apply across its 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.

Hreflang data associated with deleted posts is automatically deleted, helping remove relationships tied to unavailable content. The extension documentation also covers manually adding and verifying hreflang data.
