Hello,

I started with 'Loco translate' plugin to translate the used theme and necessary plugins from English language to German.

Could you please explain how to transfer all translated information from Loco Translate to WPML for all translated plugins and theme.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML support.

Sadly there is not a dedicated plugin to import Loco Translate data to WPML but Loco does offer to export .po-files:

Those .po-files can be imported inside WPML. You will find the option at the bottom of the String Translation screen.

Another alternative would be our glue plugin WPML All Import but it recommends a purchase of the commercial third plugin WP All Import.

This way you can import CSV and XML files which also can be exported from Loco Translate.

Please let me know if you do need any further assistance.

Kind regards
Andreas
