I‘ve found translatepress to be the best at this job. I would, however, thoroughly recommend going the Pro Route – after all it’s only eight bucks a month for one website. I’m not a fan of Google Translate. I wonder if the developers would consider deepl.com in the future?

In reply to Tom. Not at this point, because a "small change" is difficult to measure when comparing strings. But we'll look into improving this in a future version.

Thanks for the info. Already trying it out and thinking of going for the pro version.

Is there any way to avoid the translated strings to revert to the original language when you make a small change in the original text?

Thanks!

In reply to Serena.

If you actually change the default language (from TranslatePress Settings), you’ll need to change all the content you’ve written to the new language and then translate again all the information.
There is no proper way to automate this as translations are directional. Also, your content will not make sense, as it’s expected to be written in the default language.

Thanks for the article! It helps! If I change the default language, will my previous content lose?
