Hey Again Christopher,

One other question if I may...

I have a Crocoblock JetEngine > Meta Boxes that contains two meta boxes which each a repeater field. These are assigned to a page called "Our Story" and in the English I can then apply content to the repeater fields. But when translating this page, those meta boxes (and the repeaters) do not appear on the page to populate content (nor are the repeaters fields in the WPML > Custom Fields Translation. How can I have those meta boxes apply to this page like they do in the English version?

Kindest,
Rob

Hi Rob,

Would you please follow the steps below?

- Go to WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Settings > Custom Fields Translation
- Check the "Show "Multilingual Content Setup" meta box on post edit screen." setting at the top of the table and click save.
- Go to the page edit screen, which you used the JetEngine repeater field on the original language
- Scroll down and you will see a new section that shows the custom fields used specifically for that page.
- Click the Show System Fields link so it will show all the custom fields.
- Make sure that "_content" field is set to translatable. (the name is something like that)
- Do a small change on the main content of the page, such as the title and click update.
- Go to the translation editor and this time it should show the content of the field for translation.

I used the ticket below to gather the steps above:

If the issue persists, I'd appreciate it if you could give me the URL/User/Pass of your WordPress dashboard after you make sure that you have a backup of your website.
It is absolutely important that you give us a guarantee that you have a backup so if something happens you will have a point of restore.

Make sure you set the next reply as private.

Thanks.
