Uncode Theme - Issues with "Posts" Shortcode

Overview of the issue

Within the Uncode theme, when using the Posts (uncode_index) shortcode, two issues have been identified:

• Unexpected base64 encoded content is send to our Advanced Translation Editor.
• Inability to translate the “Read More” text within the Posts shortcode.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full backup of your site before proceeding.

You need to apply 2 fixes:

Part I

• Go to WPML > Configuration > Custom XML Configuration page.
• Add the following XML:

  <wpml-config>
    <shortcodes>
      <shortcode>
        <tag>uncode_index</tag>
      </shortcode>
    </shortcodes>
  </wpml-config>
  

Part II

• Open …/wp-content/themes/uncode/vc_templates/uncode_index.php file.
• Look for line 2558.
• Replace:

  if (isset($item_prop['read_more_text'])) {
  	$block_data['read_more_text'] = $item_prop['read_more_text'];
  }
  

• With:

  if (isset($item_prop['read_more_text'])) {
  	$block_data['read_more_text'] = $item_prop['read_more_text'];
  
  	// WPML Workaround for compsupp-7136
  	if ( class_exists('Sitepress') ) {
  		$string = $block_data['read_more_text'];
  		$textdomain = 'WordPress';
  		$string_name = 'WPML Workaround : '.substr($string, 0, 20);
  
  		$wpml_default_lang = apply_filters('wpml_default_language', NULL );
  		$wpml_current_lang = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL );
  
  		if ($wpml_default_lang == $wpml_current_lang ) {
  			do_action( 'wpml_register_single_string', $textdomain, $string_name, $string );
  		}	
  		// Apply the translation to the string
  		$block_data['read_more_text'] = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $string , $textdomain, $string_name);
  	}
  }
