But even then I get the french register as english , and the english version is not sync with the french
I have also tried seitching language whit do_action('wpml_switch_language', 'fr'); and switch back to original language. And do the same thing for english. Nothing worked.
As you can see on the image, the french text was imported as english not french.
**** Another point ****
Also, I see that the translation manager is not capable in the ui to switch the language (as you see in the image) of the text string. It can select it, select the language but nothing works after that.
Our third-tier supporter suggests the following. (He stressed the point that the suggested code was not tested by him.) Our third-tier supporter wrote that you can import fields suffixed with a language code, such as "address-de", "address-fr", etc., and then filter by language code. For example, if you are using get_user_metadata, you can filter like this:
<?php
add_filter('get_user_metadata', function ($value, $object_id, $meta_key, $single) {
// Only intercept specific base keys (avoid global side effects).
$keys_to_localize = ['address']; // add more if needed
if (!in_array($meta_key, $keys_to_localize, true)) {
return $value;
}
// Detect language
$lang = defined('ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE') ? ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE : null;
if (!$lang && function_exists('apply_filters')) {
$lang = apply_filters('wpml_current_language', null);
}
if (!$lang) {
return $value; // WPML not active / unknown
}
// IMPORTANT: prevent recursion by directly calling get_metadata_raw()
// Use WordPress core function if available; otherwise fall back.
$localized_key = $meta_key . '-' . strtolower($lang);
// If localized exists, use it; else leave default behavior
$localized = get_user_meta($object_id, $localized_key, $single);
if ($single) {
return ($localized !== '' && $localized !== null) ? $localized : $value;
}
return !empty($localized) ? $localized : $value;
}, 10, 4);
