This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is unable to find category descriptions in the String Translation section of WPML for translation purposes.
Solution:
If you're experiencing issues with translating category descriptions because they do not appear in the String Translation section, we recommend using the Taxonomy Translation. Here's how you can do it:
1. Navigate to WPML → Taxonomy Translation.
2. Select the taxonomy you need to translate, such as Categories.
3. Locate the category and add your translations directly within this interface.
This method is specifically designed for translating items like category names and descriptions, providing a clearer and more direct way to manage these translations compared to the String Translation section.
If the category descriptions still do not appear or if there are any discrepancies, please do not hesitate to contact us for further assistance. We also suggest checking out a related discussion on this topic at https://wpml.org/forums/topic/where-to-translate-category-description-text/.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
