Вкладка “Translation” Displayed languages – пустой список не отображает ничего!!! Нашел причину поля отображают только если вордперсс выбрана Английский язык иначе там оно не видит языков
Good plugin

It’s simple to use. I used it to translate my content with DeepL api. Thank you to the author.
Decent, but not good when making constant edits.

This translates your content within the Admin panel, but it forcefully translates your text in the Admin panel, meaning you have no way of seeing the original text you wrote. There is an option to translate it back, then make edits, then run the translation again, but that will eat up your Deepl API costs and add extra time to your project. This can make adding new text to an existing page or making edits extremely difficult.
This does not give you any type of help when organizing your site or pages for translation. You will still need a separate plugin for that or WP Multi site and get help setting that up with a language switcher, etc. This can be an advantage if you want to control that yourself and all you need is a translator.
