## Description

Enables theme developers using WPML to create type-slug.php templates in the default
language.

Currently, with WPML, if you want to create a custom template for a page/category/
post, you need to create such template in each language (e.g., page-english-slug.
php, page-french-slug.php). With this plugin, you can create the template only for
the default language (e.g., page-english-slug.php) and it will be used for all other
languages.

Version 1.0.0 supports translated page, category and tag slugs.

## Installation

 1. Upload the entire `multilingual-template-hierarchy` folder to the `/wp-content/
    plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
