Good morning,

I can confirm that 3.2.16 fixes part of the issue, but not the whole issue!

I still have a mix of German and English strings at WooCommerce -> Settings -> Germanized (less English strings, but they are still there!) and at WooCommerce -> Orders -> Multiple actions. I have not tested the confirmation emails, but it's obviously not fully fixed.

Deleting everything at /wp-content/languages/wpml/ still fixes the issue for a couple of seconds, but then these files are regenerated and I have a mix of languages again 🙁

@edmundH-3, it looks like you are checking the Beta versions. You must check the Production versions. In any case, you can download the latest version of Strings Translation 3.2.16 from the downloads page in your account here: https://wpml.org/account/downloads/.

I will wait for your reply.


@martinB-55, thanks for checking this. Let's please handle your case in a separate ticket. I've split this ticket into a new ticket and asked for access to your site in the new ticket. Please see the new ticket here.

Hi Itamar,
in the frontend not all strings are completely translated (see image).
Backend of Woocommerce Germanized pro looks now much better.
Just the Invoice are ist not probably translated. Invoices-PDF is OK.

Hi @edmundH-3,

You're using Germanized Pro as well, right?

It looks like everything related to Germanized has been fixed, while Germanized Pro related content (like invoicing) is still in English. I have the same behavior on my site. Can you confirm that?

Hi, @edmundH-3

Our developers are working on string problems with the WooCommerce Germanized plugin. We have published an errata about it. You can see it here.

https://wpml.org/errata/woocommerce-germanized-pro-strings-not-fully-translating-in-wordpress-6-7/

Until we fix this issue, our suggested workaround is to revert to WordPress 6.6.2.

As for the problem you are showing on the checkout page here.

hidden link

I just deactivated WPML and its add-ons, and the problem persists. Please see the attached screenshot. So, it is not a WPML issue. Those strings are not in the source. I'm unsure if it is from WooCommerce or WooCommerce Germanized.

I didn't know where to check the invoiced issues that you show in the two other screenshots. The best way to proceed is to replicate the same problem on a test site. Then, I'll be able to escalate it to our compatibility team. For this, I created a test website with a clean WordPress install. You can access it through this link:

hidden link

With this link, you'll be directly logged in.

WPML, WooCommerceand, and WooCommerce Germanized (free) are already installed on this site.

Could you please install the WooCommerce Germanized Pro plugin and see if the issue is replicable on a clean WordPress installation?

Please configure WPML and WooCommerce as set on your site (just the basic configurations needed to replicate the issue are enough).

Please also ensure you install the latest version of the WooCommerce Germanized Pro plugin. Please let us know when everything is finished, and you can replicate the problem.
Important! Do not import your site to the test site. We must replicate the problem on a fresh, clean WordPress installation.

To get advanced with this problem on your site, search for those strings in Strings Translation and see if you can find them there for translation.

Thanks,
Itamar.

Hi,

As for the issue with strings in emails, please try the following.

- Make sure you are using the latest String translation and Germanized versions.

- Go to String translation and re-validated / add the translation for the email strings, and save

You can see a reference for this in another ticket here.

Hello Itamar,
I will remain with Wp 6.2.2.

I can find the Sting translations, you´ve mentioned (see images)
"To get advanced with this problem on your site, search for those strings in Strings Translation and see if you can find them there for translation."

What do I need to to now?
Do I have to delete those strings?

Hi, Edmund.

I respect your decision to remain with WP 6.6.2. As far as we know, most of the Germanized issues are resolved in the latest versions of WordPress, Germanized. WPML and Strings Translation. We recently released Strings Translation 3.2.17.

You asked about the strings: "What do I need to now? Do I have to delete those strings?"

Since the strings are in English but associated with the German language, I suggest the following.

1. Select those strings.
2. Switch their language to English. See our guide on How to change the source language of strings.
3. Translate the strings from English into German and the other languages.

We could replicate the issue with resending the invoices. I'm talking about what you showed in your screenshot here.

https://wpml.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/16476402-04_12__2024_13_07_23.jpg

We will escalate this to our compatibility team and update you on any news regarding this issue.

Regards,
Itamar.

Hello Itamar,

changing the strings to English and translating them worked.
Thanks for the quidance.

The other issue with wrong invoicing, you mentioned, appears after upgrade to WP 6.7.1
I´ll remain on WP 6.2.2 until I hear more.

Hi @edmundH-3,

I have the same issue with the invoice emails being in English.

Does this happen with the original invoice email as well, when a customer places an order and gets the invoice email, or is it only in English when you resend the invoice?
