[Resolved] Translate Filter Everything sorting shortcode (fe_sort)

This is general information on how you can translate shortcodes with WPML: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/translate-custom-shortcodes-with-wpml/

You can try to refer to the documentation provided below to locate the string in WPML → String Translation and translate it.

- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/#choosing-which-strings-to-display

If you cannot find the text you want to translate in the String Translation section, follow the steps outlined in the documentation below.

- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/

As another solution based on the link you shared, it could be possible to create two identical shortcodes for each language and utilize IDs to indicate the shortcode for each language.

Thank you for your feedback.

I saw and read the documentations. The Filter Everything documentation suggests to create WordPress widgets, which get separate IDs which than can be used for translation afterwards. I use Elementor Hello Theme, which does not come with widget support out of the box (?). So, i can't create widgets and use them for translation.

On this step, I suggest you contact Filter Everything support and clarify how it can be achieved with Elementor.

I want to ensure you know this note from our compatibility team:

How can i translate a shortcode without any attributes?

To answer this question, I can suggest only this article: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/translate-custom-shortcodes-with-wpml/#making-shortcodes-translatable

You can try to avoid specifying attributes. I'm unsure how Filter Everything shortcode works; it might pull data from parts of your website where adding config won't help. You might still need to create another shortcode and use IDs.

Thank you for the update. It's good to know that it's working now. Have a great day!
