 * Hi,
 * Although TranslatePress is a great tool, as a translator, I am missing the feature
   to translate outside of WordPress and then import the translations back in. I
   know TranslatePress does not offer this and that all content is meant to be edited
   on the front-end. This is OK for small websites, but it becomes very tedious 
   and time-consuming when dealing with large sites of hundreds of pages/thousands
   of products.
 * I read this topic [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/access-translate-press-database/](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/access-translate-press-database/)
   from 3 years ago on how to access the wp_trp* tables using a database tool like
   Wp Data Access. In fact, I tried many different database editing tools, but none
   are effective or practical in translating content.
 * If I want to export wp_trp* tables, translate them outside WordPress, then import
   the translated wp_trp* tables back into the database again, how can I do that?
   Which tool, plugin or workaround do you recommend? I could work with any common
   formats like Excel, .json, .xliff, .xml, .po, etc.,
 * Look forward to hearing your thoughts.

 * Hello there,
 * Thank you for reaching us!
 * Unfortunately, for the time being, we don’t have support for importing/exporting
   translations.
 * This is a tracked feature and will be available in the future versions of TranslatePress–
   but, as there are other features more requested that require prioritization​​,
   I can’t give you a timeframe for when will this be implemented.
 * Thank you for understanding.
 * Kind Regards,
