Loco Translate is an in-admin .po/.mo translation file editor with no public runtime footprint of its own at all — the same shape as Classic Editor. Whatever translated strings a visitor sees are a function of which translations already exist in the .mo files, not of Loco Translate itself running, and its editing UI never executes on the public side.
Fully Static
Published, translated content is served from the static release exactly as with any other page — Loco Translate only affects which strings exist, not how they're served.
None — editing translation files is a logged-in, admin-only concern with no public-facing component.
None needed — Loco Translate declares no public routes of its own.
No special setup — detected automatically once active.
None — this is a simple, low-risk integration; nothing about it constrains protection mode choice.
Static Shield Lite is free to install and inspects your actual plugins, not just what's publicly visible.
