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

Problem:
The client was experiencing several issues:
1. A translated contact form was showing an error.
2. The client was unable to change the link in the main menu "Home" option to redirect to the translated page.
3. FAQ question titles were "registered and locked" and couldn't be translated.
4. The "MAP LOCATION" on the home page was not available for translation in string translation or admin strings.

Solution:
1. We translated the contact form shortcode via String Translation.
2. & 4. We instructed the client to translate the custom URL menu items via String Translation for both the Main Menu and the Location Menu.
3. We located the FAQ items in String Translation for the client to translate.

Hello Osama, happy new year!

When reviewing my entire site and the translation issues, I still have issues in a few places.

1. The contact form shows that it has been translated, however it shows an error on the translated page.

2. I can't seem to find how to change the link on the main menu "Home" option to direct back to the translated page.

3. Under FAQ, the title of the questions cannot be translated as they are "registered and locked".

4. I can't seem to find how to translate the "MAP LOCATION" on the home page. I've checked the string translation under all domains and the admin strings.

Thank you! After these issues are resolved, I believe we are all set.

Mario

Hi Mario,

Happy New Year!

1) The contact form shortcode needed to be translated via String Translation, so I translated it. (hidden link)

2) and 4) You can translate the custom URL menu items via String Translation.

Main Menu: hidden link

Location Menu: hidden link

3) The FAQ items can be found in String Translation. (hidden link)

I hope this helps you. If you need further info, please let me know.

Best regards,
Osama
