Benno Eggnauer	Is it possible to translate the description of the post image in the ATE? This would make the process much easier for the translators.

Prosenjit Barman WPML Supporter since 03/2023 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Dhaka (GMT+06:00)	Hello There, Thanks for contacting WPML Support. Translating image meta information, including the Caption, Alternative text, and Title, can be easily done through the ATE. When translating a post or page that contains an image, the associated meta information of the images will appear in the translation editor as well. You can then easily add the translation. For further information, please check this: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/media-translation/#when-you-dont-need-to-install-wpml-media-translation I hope this explanation addresses your question. If you have any further inquiries, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm here to assist you. Best regards, Prosenjit

Benno Eggnauer	Hi Prosenjit Yes, the images appear in the content and can also be translated without any problems. What does not appear, however, is the "Featured Image" that we use, where it would also be good if it appeared in the ATE.

Prosenjit Barman WPML Supporter since 03/2023 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Dhaka (GMT+06:00)	Hi There, Thank you for the update. Using the ATE, you should be able to translate the Textual contents only. Currently, it is not possible to render an image within the ATE and translate the image from there. However, if you're looking to display different images for each language version, the WPML Media Translation addon would be an ideal solution. This addon allows you to upload different images for translations, effectively replacing the default image in other languages. For comprehensive guidance on using this feature, please check this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/media-translation/#using-different-images-and-media-across-languages. Please let me know if that helps or if you need further assistance. I will be happy to help. Best regards, Prosenjit

Benno Eggnauer	Hi Prosenjit Thanks for the reply, that's all good and working so far. My question is whether the caption text of the featured image can also be translated in the ATE? See screenshot. It is possible in Media Translations, but cumbersome.

Prosenjit Barman WPML Supporter since 03/2023 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Dhaka (GMT+06:00)	Hello There, Thank you for the feedback. Yes. You can also translate the caption of the Feature images from the ATE. Here are the steps to follow: 1. Go to "WPML > Settings > Media Translation > How to handle media library texts" 2. Enable the "Translate media library texts with posts" option and click "Apply" 3. Edit the original post in the default language 4. Make a small change and save it 5. Update the translation and you should see the image texts in the translation editor Please feel free to let me know if you need further assistance in this matter. I will be happy to help. Best regards, Prosenjit
