WPSSO User Locale Selector

Provides a convenient locale / language / region selector in the WordPress admin toolbar.

Perfect for translators or anyone that needs to switch languages quickly and easily:

Allows logged-in users to change their preferred locale / language / region setting right from the toolbar menu, instead of having to modify their user profile settings.

The default behavior of WordPress is to apply the user locale preference only to the admin back-end — this plugin can extend the user setting preference to the front-end webpage as well.

The front-end locale selector is optional, and can be enabled / disabled in the SSO > User Locale settings page.

Do you use the Polylang plugin?

If the Polylang plugin is detected, the locale selector will automatically use the correct Polylang language URLs.
