Plugin Localization

Simple B&B Rental is fully localization-ready and can be easily translated into any language.

The plugin utilizes WordPress's native internationalization system (__(), _e(), esc_html__(), etc.) and already includes translations for the following languages:

  • Italian
  • French
  • German
  • Spanish

More languages will be added soon. All strings can be customized using Loco Translate or other tools compatible with '.po' and '.mo' files.
