77 Quality Score

Active Installs

With about 9,000 active installs the plugin has a niche but loyal user base, which is reasonable given how specific its scope is to the Polylang plus Contact Form 7 combination.

Update Freshness

22/25

The plugin was last updated on 17 January 2026 and tested against WordPress 6.9.4, signalling that the developer is actively keeping pace with core releases.

User Rating

15/15

A 98 out of 100 average from 17 reviewers is very high, though the small sample size means the score should be read with some caution.

Support Health

8/15

There are zero support threads on the WordPress.org forum, which means no one has reported issues publicly but also that there is no proven track record of responsive help if something breaks.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Compatibility scores full marks because the plugin specifies a minimum of WordPress 5.7.0 and PHP 5.6, which covers nearly every actively maintained site, and the latest tested version is current.

What It Does

This plugin connects Contact Form 7 with the Polylang multilingual plugin so that the same form shortcode can display different field labels, messages, and validation strings based on the visitor's language. It works by exposing form strings through Polylang's string translation interface, allowing site owners to translate each form without creating duplicate forms for every language.

Who It's For

It is best for site owners who already use both Polylang and Contact Form 7 and need contact, signup, or inquiry forms to render properly across two or more languages. Small businesses, translation agencies, language schools, and tourism sites running on a Polylang-based multilingual setup will benefit the most.

Who Should Skip It

Anyone using WPML instead of Polylang, or relying on multilingual form plugins that do not depend on Polylang string registration, should skip this. Sites that only run in one language or use a different forms plugin such as WPForms or Gravity Forms will get no value here.

The Bottom Line

For the narrow scenario of running Polylang together with Contact Form 7, this plugin does its job and does it well, earning a solid 79.91 out of 100 from PluginCheck. The lack of any support threads is a small concern, but the high rating and recent updates suggest it is a safe, low-risk add-on. It is a specialist tool, not a general translation solution, so only adopt it if both Polylang and Contact Form 7 are already part of your stack.

Pick this instead if you want an automated, machine-translated site rather than managing Polylang string translations manually.

TranslatePress Multilingual with AI Translation 93/100

Pick this if you need a full visual translator for the entire site and not just Contact Form 7 strings.

Loco Translate 89/100

Pick this if you mainly need to translate theme and plugin strings in general rather than form-specific content.

Database Addon for Contact Form 7 88/100

Pick this if your real need is storing Contact Form 7 submissions in the database, with translation being a secondary concern.

ReCaptcha v2 for Contact Form 7 86/100

Pick this instead if your priority is securing forms against spam rather than translating them into multiple languages.
