Questions about translating theme elements and missing CSS in WPML

Hi,

1) What is the correct way to translate theme elements that are not available in String Translation and are also not detected by the WPML Translation Editor? For example, this applies to the placeholders, header elements and shop filter titles marked in the attached screenshot. Do I need to change these texts separately for each language in the theme settings?

2) Sometimes the CSS styles are not copied correctly to one of the language versions. Updating both the original page and its translation does not restore the missing styles. What is the recommended way to fix this situation?

Thanks for help.

Best regards

  • Hello,

    1) Filter element titles should be translatable by translating the shop template.

    Note that after translating the template, you should edit the translated version and click the Update button so that the template will be assigned to the appropriate language.

    Please try it out with the header template.

    This way you can also translate parts that did not translate properly.

    Anyway, the descriptions for icons elements did not appear in the WPML tranlation for you at all?

    2) Please try to use the CSS update from Betheme -> Tools:

    Best regards

  • In that case, not everything is working as it should:

    1. The translated menu items do not have their icons or mega menu settings assigned. I have to add them separately for each language, and whenever I make any change in the original language, I have to repeat the entire process.
    2. The same issue applies to filter titles and some other elements, such as the placeholder text in the search field.


  • Please send us the WordPress dashboard and FTP access privately through the contact form, which is on the right side at [Links visible only for registered users] and we will check what might be the reason.
