Carlos	Breadcrumbs won't translate. I have a portfolio page, inside that page there are several portfolio items and inside each item on the page breadcrumb, you can see the name of the portfolio page. I translated the page and changed the name accordingly but the breadcrumb won't change. Please check the following screenshots: - Screenshot of the original item (Spanish): hidden link - Screenshot of the translated item (English): hidden link Can you help me figure out what's the problem? Thanks in advance for your help.

Carlos	Hi Bigul, just to let you know that I identified where the breadcrumb I can't translate comes from. As I said earlier the problem is with the portfolio page (“Proyectos Destacados” in Spanish and “Featured Projects” in English). The portfolio page is assigned in the the theme options and I think the issue could be involved with that. Please go here in the menu: hidden link and then go here: hidden link Thats the screen where you assign the portfolio page. I've tried assigning a different page in different languages but that doesn't work. And as I said earlier, I've tried different methods for translating “Proyectos Destacados” as a string but I can't find it. Hope this helps. Thanks again for your help. Best.

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Vienna (GMT+01:00)	Hi Carlos, Thank you for the details. Please check the attached image. I am getting the expected results after translating the [thegem_theme_options]portfolio_archive_page theme option via WPML>>String Translation. We have to translate it with English page ID. I have added that string for translation from WPML>>String Translation>>Translate texts in admin screens(link at the bottom of the page). Please refer to this doc for more details - https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/#strings-arent-selected-for-translation -- Thanks!
