Hi,

I have dozens of tables across my website using the WPDataTables plugin. (hidden link)

Please look at this page that I translated into German: hidden link

And look at the table I show in the attached screenshot.

The content on my tables is data that does not need translation. However, I need to translate the headers of some of the columns.

The plugin does not have a native integration with WPML. Is there a workaround to translate these types of strings? How do you recommend me to handle this scenario?

It is important for me to find a good solution because I have many such tables on my website.

Many Thanks,
Erez

Hi Erez,
Thank you for contacting us

I recommend you follow the steps described in this link: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/

If you can't find the strings, then I encourage you to contact the authors of the plugin and invite them to join our Go-Global Program: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/go-global-program/ that way they can get in touch directly with our compatibility team and solve any compatibility issue that might exist.

Regards,
Carlos
