[Waiting for user feedback] Help translating "The Events Calendar" plugin

Hi,

I’m stepping in for Prosenjit today and will be responding to your ticket.

I see that this is your default language

That being said, what if you temporarily disable WPML, does it still show "Busca por calendariocalendario"?

If so, then this would not come from WPML or the translation but somewhere from the Events Calendar code or of some its settings.

In this case you could try searching for it either through https://wordpress.org/plugins/string-locator/ or even ask Event Calendar support.

Let us know!

Hi There!
Thank you for sharing the access details.

I checked and was able to identify the root cause of the "Calendario" text appearing twice in the search placeholder. In String Translation, the word "Calendar" had been translated into Spanish, and the Spanish translation "Calendario" was added twice. This duplication caused the term to display twice in the placeholder.

I removed the duplicate translation, and now the placeholder appears correctly as "Buscar por calendario". Please see the updated result in this screenshot: hidden link.

I hope it helped! If you need further clarification or assistance, please let me know. I'll be happy to help.

Best regards,
Prosenjit

Hi Juan,
Thank you for the update.

Glad to be able to assist you in this matter.

Regarding the issue of the "There is no Event" text not showing translated in Spanish: Upon investigation, I found that this string originates from the plugin "Events Widgets For Elementor And The Events Calendar". The reason it didn’t appear translated is because the string was not yet registered for translation.

To resolve this, I scanned the plugin by navigating to WPML > Theme and Plugins Localization, which made the string available in String Translation.

Please go to WPML > String Translation and search for the string "There is no Event". It should now appear in the list. Once you find it, add the Spanish translation (and translations for other languages, if needed). The string should then display correctly in the translated language.

Regarding the issue of not being able to see the Events, I investigated and found that the events have not been translated into other languages yet.

When I checked the translation settings for the "Event" post type, I noticed that the "Fallback" option was selected, which should load the default events when translations are unavailable. However, the events were not loading because the "Event Categories" translation setting was set to "Translatable – only show translated content". Since events are displayed based on their categories, this setting prevented events from appearing unless the category was also translated.

To resolve this, you have two options:
1. Translate the events under the specific category.
2. Adjust the "Event Categories" translation setting to "Translatable – use translation if available or fallback to default language".

After adjusting the setting, the default events began displaying correctly in other languages. Please check now.

I hope it helps. If you have any other questions or need clarification, feel free to let me know. I'll be happy to help.

Best regards,

Hi Juan,
Thank you for the update.

1) Site Title and Additional Text not appearing translated:
To see the Site Title translated, you need to translate it through String Translation. When searching for "Nueva Acrópolis España" (the current Site Title), it appeared in the String Translation section. For testing, I added the Euskara translation, and the title displayed correctly in the Euskara language.

The Additional Text is also showing up as translated. Please take a look at this screenshot: hidden link.

To resolve this:

- Go to String Translation and search for the Site Title.
- Translate it into the desired languages.

If you don’t see the updated translations, clear your site's and browser's caches, then check again.

2) Page can't be translated using ATE:
The issue with the Histórico page is that its translation editor is set to the WordPress Editor instead of the WPML Advanced Translation Editor. This is why the ATE isn't loading when you try to add a translation.

To fix this, Select the WPML Translation Editor for the page, as shown in hidden link">this screenshot. This should allow the ATE to load correctly for translating the page.

Best regards,
Prosenjit
