I am trying to: to send the a string (messages) in email which should be automatically changes according to customer language for this i used as suggest
do_action('wpml_switch_language_for_email', $order->billing_email);
printf( __( 'Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?', 'customnew' ));
echo $sitepress->get_admin_language();
do_action('wpml_restore_language_from_email');
echo $sitepress->get_admin_language();
As i check this action are switching the language of admin from English to chiness code and vice versa successfully but it not changing the string message and yes i already add string of translation for that string you can see in this image hidden link

Instead, I got: nothing string translation
Thank you for contacting the WPML support. We are happy to help you.
Please let me know the exact steps to replicate the issue in a fresh installation. Are you using a custom theme?
I have a request. Please upgrade to the latest version of WordPress, WooCommerce, and WPML Media, after a full site backup and check you are still having the issues.
steps i followed
1. I have a fresh new installation of WordPress on my other server and install all plugin wmpl media plugins/string translation plugin /sitepress/woocomerce/twentyseventeen theme
2. than i set two languages 1. English 2. chines
3. than i do all steps what they recommended me to do
4. than i have a string which i register a required string(Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?) to string translation and than i add translation of that chiness i that
5. than i add this string to my woocmerce processing email "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?" than i do a new order using a customer account which have chines language than the email goes to that customer is chiness language and this string "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?" is also there in chines language
6. Than i try to send the a email to customer which is a promotional email in functions.php of my theme where i pass a messge "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?" as i check language is switch successfully using code
do_action('wpml_switch_language_for_email', $order->billing_email);
printf( __( 'Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?', 'customnew' ));
echo $sitepress->get_admin_language();
do_action('wpml_restore_language_from_email');
and email is also delivery to customer succefully but the string "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who has the cutest look of them all?" in that promotional email not translate to chiness language string
that is the issue i have facing in new installation also
Thank you for the details. I tried the steps locally and was unable to replicate the issue exactly.
Therefore I would like to access admin area of your site for further checking. Please fill the private details fields after a full site backup. Check the following links for more details about private information sharing.
For your updates, I have tried few tests, and the translations are showing for me in the order receipt mail.
The changes I made in *customer-processing-order.php* file also showing the order receipt mail. Please check the attached images and let me know your feedback.
Thank you for the updates. I would like to confirm one thing. Please try the following steps and let me know your feedback. Check the attached image for more details.
1) Switch Dashboard Language to Chinese
2) Then click on *Run Async Full Demo* button
3) Please make sure you are getting the Chinese contents in mail
I also have a request. Can you please create a staging environment of your live site. So we can test the actual functionality also. Please share me your suggestion.
But we are not always switch back to chines or English because in our website we re running 10+ multiple language our website
Thats why we want to send emails on one click (manual email)
and our live website are still running on old versions of wpml and we will plan to update to those on next months thats why i give you setup of all latest plugin on our that staging website you currently working.
So please make sure that if we are on english dashboard it must be send the message to as customer languge not in english which is wrong and the action which wpml provide have bug if this is not satisfy them
1) we are sending mail with cron
2) we need to automatically send email in 10 different languages so this solution isnt helpful there either (Switching Dashboard Always)
Thank you for the updates. It looks like a custom development requirements. I am looking for an option to get the user language. Therefore I have two more questions.
1) What all are the information you are sending to client while sending the mail from the live environment. Please explain more about it.
2) Does the mail contents related to WooCommerce Order details? How you defer the Customer languages?
