Localization

The frontend language of Content Egg can be different from your main WordPress language and admin dashboard language. Content Egg has its own setting for this:

• Go to Content Egg > Settings > Frontend.

• Set the "Website Language" option to choose the language used for the frontend display.

For most use cases, you can translate frontend strings directly from the WordPress dashboard. Please follow this guide:
