Problem: You are developing a site and want the WordPress API to respond in English, despite the main website language being different. You tried using the WPML Hook with
do_action('wpml_switch_language', 'en');
but it did not work. Solution: We recommend using the
rest_request_before_callbacks
filter to force the WPML language for specific API endpoints. Here is an example of how you can implement this:
add_filter('rest_request_before_callbacks', function ($response, $handler, $request) {<br /> // Specify the endpoints you want to target (or apply globally).<br /> $target_endpoints = ['/wp/v2/posts', '/wp/v2/pages'];<br /> <br /> if (in_array($request->get_route(), $target_endpoints, true)) {<br /> // Switch WPML language context to English.<br /> do_action('wpml_switch_language', 'en');<br /> }<br /> <br /> return $response;<br />}, 10, 3);
Please note that we do not provide support for custom coding issues, but only guidance and examples as shown above. If you need further assistance, you might consider hiring a WPML Contractor.

Problem: You are experiencing translation issues with the BuddyBoss App while using WPML. Specific words or phrases remain untranslated in the app, despite being correctly added in the String Translation module. Solution: 1. Update your WPML String Translation to the latest version, 3.2.17, to ensure you have the most recent bug fixes and improvements. You can update by visiting WPML installation guide. 2. Install the BuddyPress Multilingual glue plugin, which is necessary for translating BuddyBoss texts. This plugin can be found under your WPML account or through the Plugins section in your WordPress dashboard. For more details, visit BuddyPress Multilingual documentation. 3. Ensure that both the BuddyBoss Platform Pro and BuddyBoss Platform plugins are updated to their latest versions. Check for updates at BuddyBoss release notes. 4. If issues persist, consider contacting the author of BuddyBoss, as the app may not be retrieving the correct content.
