    hey, is there a way to make the generated title tag for category archive pages bilingual for English and German?
    It would be enough if it is archive for the english ones and archiv for the german.

    I already tried to find a way in polylang and with Loco Translate but couldn’t find a solution.

    Thanks for your help

    isn’t it on english : archives ? pl.
    what is the plural of Archiv in german ? ;)

    and on singular:
    english: archive
    german: Archiv
    _______
    show me a link – maybe you are right .

    but be carefull with German lang files there is a “Du” and a formal “Sie” translation.
    So first have a look what kind of salutation you have choosed in wordpress settings.
    You then have to edit the formal or normal po files

    Guess you choosed the “Sie” formal addressing – because this is not translated in de_DE_formal.po:
    Choose the archive sidebar position here. This setting will be applied to all archive pages

    it’s shown in both (german and english) as “[Category] Archive” which isnt’t a good SEO signal because some categories have the same name.

    I would like to leave the englisch with “[Category] Archive” as already set and change the german into “[Category] Archiv”

    I’ve set a link as example in the Private Content. There you can easy change the language and see that the title tag is always the same.

    no private content for me – i’m participant as you.

    can you show me the place where Archiv is shown – i can not see either on en nor on de
    even in source code no “archiv” found
    or do you mean the body class? – it’s a cruel idea to translate the class names

    edit: or is it in the head section the title tags ( and opengraph title tags ) ?
    what do you expect is different on SEO point of view if there is “Allgemein Archiv” instead of “Allgemein Archive” ?

    you can see it on top in the browser tab – in this case you can read Press Archive in en and Presse Archive in de
    or directly in the header code at meta property title for example

    für meine Begriffe ist hier der Plural richtig.
    Aber ich glaube auch, dass dies eher von WordPress selber gesteuert wird – als vom Thema.
    Sorry da musst du wohl auf einen der Coder hier warten.

    jup…ähnlicher Ansatz…aber dein Hinweis hat mich erst drauf gebracht…daher danke dir

    Ich kann über Yoast ja die Title für Beitragskategorien einzeln bearbeiten
