Description
Thanks to language packs it’s easier than ever before to change the main language of your site. However, in some cases a single locale is not enough. When WordPress can’t find a translation for the active locale, it falls back to the original English strings. That’s a poor user experience for many non-English speakers.
This feature project aims to change that by letting users choose multiple languages for displaying WordPress in. That way you can set some sort of “fallback chain” where WordPress tries to load translations in your preferred order.
Please help us test this plugin and let us know if something is not working as you think it should.

It works like a charm and would be a great improvement in core.
Nice plugin
No problem at all. It’s nice plugin
Great plugin
We have struggled for years because “French Canada” is not as supported as “French France”. It would take a huge amount of time to translate everything. We had the idea of creating a fallback plugin but what you started is simply great so we decided to use it and contribute to it instead of creating an alternative. Great work, Pascal.
Excellent plugin
Thanks this is an Excellent plugin
