[ Contact Support ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/linguator-multilingual-ai-translation/) Can I create a separate menu for each language? Yes. Linguator lets you manage separate WordPress navigation menus for different languages. Can Linguator sync menus between languages? Yes. Linguator includes menu synchronization that can create or update language-specific menus based on an existing source menu when matching translated content is available. What happens to page links when a menu is synced? If a translated version of the page, post, custom post type, or taxonomy term exists, Linguator uses that translated item in the target-language menu. What happens if a menu item has no translation? Menu synchronization checks whether corresponding translated content exists. Items that cannot be mapped to suitable translated content may be skipped rather than linked to the wrong language version. Can I add a language switcher to a navigation menu? Yes. Linguator includes a Language Switcher menu item that can be added through the WordPress menu interface. Do I need to upload the same image again for every language? No. When Linguator creates a media translation, the language-specific attachment can reference the same uploaded file while keeping its own translated metadata. Yes.
