First make sure that the hardcoded strings in the theme or plugin that they are, have the correct gettext function wrap as a standard WordPress string to be detectable by WPML.
Maybe there is a misunerstanding. I can see the strings, and I an translate them. But the translation stop showing up in the frontend after the two hours of automatic string registration passed by.
I see, please follow the steps below to see if it fixes the issue:
- IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website. Or better approach will be to test this on a copy/staging version of the website to avoid any disruption of a live website.
- Go to WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Support > Troubleshooting (link) Click the Generate MO files option which will give you a pop up and you can click the generate button.
- If there issue persists, please follow the workaround below:
Thanks, please contact your hosting service provider and ask them to make sure that the wp-content/languages/ folder and all sub folders of that folder have write permission.
So WPML can add files there. Then please repeat the steps I mentioned in the previous reply.
Thank you.
