ericH-23	Background of the issue: I am developing a site and want to translate the application forms (WP Jobmanager) using WPML. I am unable to find the form fields descriptions in the string translation. Symptoms: I have translations that I can't find to correct them. Questions: How can I translate the application forms using WPML? Where can I find the form fields descriptions for translation? How can I correct translations that I can't find?

ericH-23	Hi, I’ve done this now, and while some standard strings are being collected, unfortunately, my custom fields and descriptions are not showing up. What should I do? Thanks and kind regards, Eric

Andreas W. Supporter Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	Custom Fields are not getting translated with WPML > String Translation. You can adjust the translation preference settings for custom fields at WPML > Settings > Custom Field Translation. If you see the fields to "Translate" they will appear on the WPML Translation Editor when translating the related posts.

Andreas W. Supporter Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	This should be translatable with WPML > String Translation. You might need to scan WP Jobmanager first for new strings at WPML > Theme & Plugin Localization. In case you need further assistance, it would also be very helpful if you could send us the WPML debugging information. More information here: https://wpml.org/de/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/
