Hi,

I have translated site, PL is default, EN and DE version.
I have a custom post types with meta fields. And when text in one of the meta fields are linked WPML doesnt translate those links. How is that?

Hello there

Thank you for contacting us. I am happy to help you.

May I ask you to check if his guide is helping you ?

https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-urls-shortcodes-and-html-attributes-using-the-advanced-translation-editor/

If the above is not helping you, a possible workaround is to add those links manually in a secondary language: The way is simple: In the original language edit page, switch the top language admin bar in the secondary language. Edit only the links and update. Please do not edit anything else because it will break things.

I hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes or if you need any further assistance. I'll gladly help you. 🙂

Regards,
Andreas
