Background of the issue:
I am using LearnDash to deliver courses on my site hidden link. I am trying to translate the site from German to English using WPML. I am encountering issues with translating quizzes, specifically the quiz questions.

Here's a video showing the issue:
hidden link

Symptoms:
When viewing a quiz in English, no questions are present. In the Quiz Editor and Builder, no questions are selected or associated with the quiz. The metabox to select questions shows rows of checkboxes and add buttons without text. Searching limits the empty rows, but adding a 'question' results in an empty entity with errors.

Questions:
Why are the quiz questions not appearing in the English version of the quiz?
How can I correctly associate translated questions with the quiz in LearnDash using WPML?
Why are the questions translated but not available for slection?
Why are errors shown when adding a question?

Hi,

I've installed the LearnDash Multilingual plugin but I'm still unable to build the quizzes in the secondary language due to no Questions being available in the questions metabox (see the uploaded video).

After manually adding answers to some questions, it appears that this fixes the issue of questions not being available to add to quizzes.

However, we have many quizzes with many questions and multiple answers. In a lot of questions the answers are all images/html and thus the answers in the secondary language are exactly the same as in the primary language. Therefore, I'm hoping their might be a way we could automatically add all the answers to the secondary language. Perhaps with a script?

If you could help me with this, it'd be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Hi Phil,

Thank you for the updates, I can see you already installed the add-on which is what Learndash also recommends in their guide.

Also, after reviewing our own guide it looks like the Learndash quiz answers can only be translated manually at the moment.

"Unlike other components, you can only translate quiz answers manually: "

For more information see here:

Let me know your results, please.
