Product Description
WPML CMS Nav Add-On extends the navigation capabilities of WPML-powered multilingual WordPress sites. While the core CMS Navigation addon handles menu synchronization, this add-on focuses on broader site navigation elements including breadcrumb trails, sidebar navigation widgets, and page-based navigation structures.
Extended Navigation Features
Multilingual sites often need more than just translated menus. Breadcrumb navigation, sidebar page listings, and hierarchical page navigation all need to reflect the current language context. This addon ensures these navigation elements display correctly for each language version of your site.
Navigation Components
- Breadcrumb support: Generates language-aware breadcrumb trails that reflect the translated page hierarchy
- Sidebar navigation: Provides widgets and functions for displaying page-based navigation in the current language
- Page order management: Maintains consistent page ordering across language versions
Theme Compatibility
The addon works with themes that use standard WordPress navigation functions. For themes with custom navigation implementations, template adjustments may be needed to take advantage of the multilingual navigation features.

Expert Reviewer
WPML CMS Nav Add-On addresses a specific need for sites that rely on breadcrumbs and page-based navigation. During testing, breadcrumb trails correctly reflected the translated page hierarchy. The sidebar navigation widget worked well with standard themes, though custom theme implementations occasionally needed adjustments.
A useful complement to WPML for sites that need comprehensive navigation handling beyond standard translated menus.
