Background of the issue:
I have created a CPT called baliabide on our website hidden link, which uses Spanish and Basque. The CPT is created using Pods, and in Spanish, it works fine with SearchWP, showing the contents correctly. I have translated the CPT labels, but the contents remain the same.

Symptoms:
When I try to show the contents using SearchWP in the second language (Basque), no contents are shown.

Questions:
How can I fix the issue of SearchWP not showing CPT contents in the second language?

I have bulk add some of the CPTs items and it shows the searched item but when i click on it every result it shows Array instead of the correct data. Any idea?

Hi,

To help narrow down the cause, could you try creating a test without using Pods — e.g. to use the default "post" post type — and check if SearchWP returns results in both languages there? This will help determine whether the issue is specific to Pods or more general.

Hi, i have test it with a post and it is showed. I think the problem comes within WPML and the language translation of Pods. Is there any tutorial to test if all i do is right?.
Thanks in advance

Hello,

The plugin Pods needs to be translated manually:
