Background of the issue:
I am using the 'Motors' WordPress theme and attempting to translate my website at hidden link using WPML. I have tried various methods to translate the site, including Taxonomies translations, String translations, Admin text translation, and Auto register strings.
Symptoms:
Despite my efforts, I am unable to translate listing category names on the inventory page and in the search filters. Theme support was unable to resolve the issue and suggested that I might need to synchronize the .pot file.
Questions:
Can you help me with translating texts that are still not translated on the inventory page and in the search filters?
Are there any other methods that I can use to translate the text that I might not have tried yet?
- Make sure you test it on a copy of the website or at least have a complete backup.
- Go to WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Support > Troubleshooting (link)
- Select the post type that the taxonomy is from and click the annotated button attached to this answer.
If the issue persists, this might be a compatibility issue with Motor Theme. To be able to report this to the compatibility team we need to replicate the issue on a clean installation from scratch to remove any possibility of interfering plugins or settings.
I created a WordPress installation that you can access and install the Motor Theme and add the taxonomy and try to translate it:
Sorry for the late reply, I've missed your message.
So, I tried your solution for my website and it doesn't work for me, I still have the same issue. I've created the new test listing, but the result is the same, I can't translate it.
Also, I've installed the theme to the test environment, tried to do the same, and the translation works fine there. Do you have any ideas why that can happen? Everything is the same: the version of WPML, the version of the theme, the listing specification...
For me, taxonomies translations also worked on the specific listing page. But they didn't work on the all listing page - in filters and on the listing card. And unfortunately, it's not possible to show the filter differently with the Motor theme.
