Betheme and wpml, manual translation ,switcher and other issues

Hi :)

I translated my site in the manual mode in wpml, I tried to enable the language switcher in the right header menu, but it displays corrupted, tried different settings (within the betheme options) but nothing worked, could you help me with the matter? I would like to have a simple flag dropdown list, such as it's shown i n the tutorial:

https://support.muffingroup.com/video-tutorials/how-to-add-wpml-language-switcher/

I think the betheme template that I used was not made through the header builder, so I cannot edit it as shown in the film above.


The second issue is that I cannot find the option to translate the text marked in red, in the footer, I looked in the widgets wpml string translation, but it's not there.

And the last problem is that the google map is not working in the english version.

  • Hello,

    1) I do not want to misunderstand you. Can you explain greater how would you like it to look, please?

    2) You should find it in the WPML String translator.

    If you cannot find it, you should contact the WPML support.


    Best regards

    1. Just a simple white drop down list of flags, it can be the same as it is shown in the tutorial video above. ONnthe right side of the menu.
    2. It's not there I already looked, it's missing in the string translation. I came upon an idea, that I can duplicate the widget that it's made of, and just show a specific one for each language, but that's a work around I think not a propper way to do it. What do You think?
    3. What about google maps? Why is the map not working in the english version of the site?

    Isuue 2. solved still need help with the language switcher and google map

  • 1) Please use the following CSS code:

    #Top_bar:not(.is-sticky) .menu li ul{
     top: 65%!important;
    }
    #Top_bar .menu li.wpml-ls-item ul.sub-menu{
     margin-left: 10px;
     border-radius: 10px;
     border: solid 1px #dedede;
     background-color: #f0f0f0;
    }
    

    Put it in Betheme -> Theme options -> Custom CSS & JS -> CSS.

    2) Can you tell me what was the problem?

    3) Regarding this problem, you should contact WPML support.


    Best regards

    1. Thx for the code! It worked with the alingment, but there is one small thing I would like to have, a little triangle beside the flag suggesting the drop down list, is it possible to add to the code? Thx! :)
    2. I had to mannually search for the string in admin screens, find it and then add to string translation.
    3. Done that.


  • Please also use this code:

    #Top_bar .menu > li.wpml-ls-item > a > span:after{
     content: '\e869';
     font-family: 'mfn-icons';
       margin-left: 5px;
    }
    

    Thanks
