[Resolved] cant find string…

Hello Yaron 🙂

You can update WPML automatically if you registered the site going to Plugins > Add New > Commercial (tab).

Or you can update it manually, following these steps
-Deactivate all WPML plugins.
-Login via FTP to your wp-content/plugins/ folder.
-Delete all WPML folders.
-Go to http://wpml.org/my-account/downloads/ and download the latest WPML Multilingual CMS Plugin, then extract it.
-Upload the plugin via FTP to wp-content/plugins/ folder.
(alternatively you could upload the .zip folder using Dashboard > Plugins > new > upload)
-Activate the WPML plugin via WP Dashboard > plugins
-Complete the setup, if needed
-Register WPML for your site (at the end of setup, click on “generate key” button)
-Navigate to Dashboard > Plugins and locate WPML Multilingual CMS
-Click on the blue link that says “Registered”
-Download and activate all needed WPML AdOn Plugins

In both cases:
❌ Before proceeding please make a full website backup! ❌

And yes, the new show without duplicating feature may help. But take into account that it falls back to the default language, not the original language of the listing.

So, if your site has EN (default) and IL. And you create a listing in EN, it will show in IL. But if you create a listing in IL, it won't show in EN. When there is no translation, it falls back to the site's default language post.

Regarding the days' strings. Where are they coming from? Is that a widget? From the theme? Do you have the chance to edit them in the theme options?

Kind Regards,

Hello,

Thanks.

So, those strings (days) should be part of the theme or listing plugin.

If you haven't done this before:
1. Go under “WPML -> Theme and plugins localization”
2. Make sure that “Translate the theme and plugins using WPML's String Translation” is active
3. Scroll down to “Strings in the theme” and click on “Scan the theme for strings”
4. Scroll down to “Strings in the plugins”, select the plugin you want to scan and click on “Scan the selected plugins for strings”
5. Once you followed the above steps go under “WPML -> String Translation”. All strings available for translation should display in the table you see there.

If this does not help, I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to take a better look at the issue. It would be better to a testing site where the issue is replicated.

You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply. The information you will enter is private which means only you and I can see and have access to it.

Maybe I'll need to replicate your site locally. For this, I’ll need to temporarily install a plugin called “Duplicator” on your site. This will allow me to create a copy of your site and your content. Once the problem is resolved I will delete the local site. Let me know if this is ok for you.

** IMPORTANT **

- Please make a backup of site files and database before providing us access.

- If you do not see the wp-admin/FTP fields this means your post & website login details will be made PUBLIC. DO NOT post your website details unless you see the required wp-admin/FTP fields. If you do not, please ask me to enable the private box. The private box looks like this:
