Html text on top bar on The7 Theme isn't translated

This is the technical support forum for WPML - the multilingual WordPress plugin.

Everyone can read, but only WPML clients can post here. WPML team is replying on the forum 6 days per week, 22 hours per day.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Html text on top bar on The7 Theme isn't translated
Solution:
It seems like that the theme domain, related to admin texts, is in fact "borghi".

That's why I registered the following XML:

<wpml-config>
    <admin-texts>
        <key name="borghi">
            <key name="header-elements-text"/>
            <key name="header-elements-text-2"/></key>
    </admin-texts>
</wpml-config>

And added this within WPML -> Impostazioni -> Configurazione XML personalizzata. It's how The7 theme works. When you create a child theme, it saves the settings under the name of the child theme.

paoloC-16	I am trying to translate in english, html text that i have inserted (in italian) in the top bar of the7 theme. From "String Translation" i can see my italian text and i can insert the english version but from front-end the top header remain always in italian. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: borghipiubelliditalia.it/en/ and all other eng page I expected to see the english html/text Instead, I got aslways the italian html/text I also read this post: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/translate-top-bar-on-the7-theme/ but i think isn't usefull for me because i have the string showed into "String Translation" Lastly i haven't installed "Translation Management" plugin becouse this isn't necessary for me and becouse i wan't the wpml code.

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+02:00)	Hi, I have tried every imaginable scenario there is (minimal setup, new microwidgets, clearing WPML cache, trying localhost...), but nothing helped. Therefore I have brought this case to our compatibility team and I will keep you posted once they reply back! Regards, Bruno Kos

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+02:00)	Hi, Can you check now? It seems like that the theme domain, related to admin texts, was changed somehow and is in fact "borghi". hidden link That's why I registered the following XML: <wpml-config> <admin-texts> <key name="borghi"> <key name="header-elements-text"/> <key name="header-elements-text-2"/></key> </admin-texts> </wpml-config> And added this within WPML -> Impostazioni -> Configurazione XML personalizzata. You can now find the correct strings in the string translation, so make sure to add your original text and translation properly (because I have changed them when testing).

paoloC-16	thanks for support. The domain name is "borghi" becouse i use a child theme. When i set the domain text for child theme i have to use the same of the parent?

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+02:00)	Hi, When i set the domain text for child theme i have to use the same of the parent? In fact, no, and you did it properly. I was actually uncertain myself so I asked compatibility team and they told me the following: "It's how The7 theme works. When you create a child theme, it saves the settings under the name of the child theme." So everything is working properly here. Let me know if there's anything else I can assist with, related to this particular issue. Regards, Bruno Kos
