Description

The Polylang extension synchronizes FacetWP facets with Polylang’s multilingual system, automatically displaying only results in the active page language. The addon detects the visitor’s current language, filters taxonomy terms and custom fields according to the corresponding translation, and keeps facet counts consistent for WordPress sites with content translated into multiple languages.
