Translate Categories

Enable to automatically clone and translate categories when saving.
The plugin only works if the item being saved matches the source language.

Active Categories Limit translation to specific categories. Leave empty to allow all categories.
Update Existing Translations If 'Yes', existing translated items will be overwritten with a new translation when you save the source item. If 'No', only new items are created.
Associated Tags If enabled, tags from the source category will be replaced by their translated counterparts (via Tag Associations). If disabled, original tags will be kept.
Translatable Fields Select which fields should be processed by the translation service. Unselected fields will be copied 1-to-1 and not translated. You can choose from: Title (aliases will be translated also), Description, Images (Alt & Caption) (images itself won't be translated), Meta Description, Meta Keywords, Note and Custom Fields (Only Text, Textarea and Editor fields will be translated, other fieldtypes will be copied 1-to-1 and not translated)
Default State for New Translations Set the publication state for newly created category translations. 'Default' copies the state from the original category. You can choose from: Default (copy from original), Published, Unpublished, Archived, Trashed
