[Resolved] Translation resets when you update the site

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Cannot translate WP Rental options in Theme Options > General > Listing and owners
When trying to translate from String Translation it does not works.

Solution:
Translate the Options in Theme Options > General > Listing and owners which are the Post type and Taxonomy slugs from WPML -> Settings -> Post type Translation and Taxonomies Translation. Click on the "Set different slugs in different languages for.." to translate the slug as explained in the document linked next.

Hello. I am Anna, the developer of the team. We have not made any intentional configuration to permalinks names translation. Please confirm how they need to be added so they are translated.

We will make sure any edits are added to the next theme update.

Thank you

Hi Anna, this issue has now been escalated to our Compatibility team.
I will let you know here in this ticket if we need anything here.

Hi there,

Apologies for the delayed repones here!

So we found that the proper way to translate the permalinks/slugs for WP Rental are not through WPML -> String translations.

The proper way to translate the slugs is as following:

- Go to WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation
- Find Listings (estate_property) ( or other post types there like "Owners (estate_agent)" for Owner Page slug ) then click on Set different slugs in different languages for Listing
- Set the translated slug and save
- Go to Settings > Permalinks and re-save permalinks

Regards,
Subash
