Hi, I have this widget that does not translate. It comes from the plugin Subscribe 2. See http://imgur.com/tasXn

My site is www.sylvieadams.com

Thanks

Dear Sylvie,

This looks actually like a "plugin incompatibility".
WPML's String Translation is fetching any plugin text wrapped in gettext functions.
This seems to work.
However, in order to display the translation, the widget title needs to go through ‘apply_filters’ – http://wpml.org/documentation/support/troubleshooting-string-localization/ > 3) Texts in widgets needs to go through ‘apply_filters’ explains more.

Could you search the plugin files for " apply_filters( 'widget_title' " strings and let me know if they are used?

Hi Andreas,

I did a search in the subscribe2/include/widget.php and could not locate any " apply_filters( 'widget_title' " strings.

I would like to send you the code of the php file, could you let me know where?

Hello Sylvie,

Thanks for checking! I also downloaded the plugin and "screened" it. Same result – no "apply_filters".

In the end the problem looks like a "plugin / WPML incompatibility" issue.
I would recommend that you contact the plugin author and ask him to join our "Go-Global" program.
We work with plugin authors to solve compatibility issues between their plugins and WPML.

We are happy to work with any author who shows interest in this by contacting us through
this link http://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/go-global-program/ .

Can you arouse interest in the author by letting him know about the program?
This will benefit both you and other users of the same plugin.
