Thanks Mohamed. Appreciate it.

I have another unrelated question regarding Reusable blocks. I have one block that is present on let's say 20 articles. Now I will be translating those.

I'm using classic editor and can't translate them there. I tried going through String translation and can see only phrases of that Reusable block.

What is the best way to translate this reusable block and use it in a translated post?

Regards,
Matej

Please try the following steps:

1. Go to WPML > Translation Management
2. Use the type filter to find the Reusable blocks
3. Select them and send for translation
4. Translate from WPML > Translations

Please check this guide for more details: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-content-created-using-gutenberg-editor/translating-reusable-blocks/

Let me know please if that helps.

Kind regards,
Mohamed

Thanks Mohamed,

And after the reusable block is translated, you assign a new post for translation, which has that reusable block inside.

What will the translator have to do in Classical editor?

Best,
Matej

They just need to translate the new post.

The reusable block won't be included in the translation editor for this post, but it will show the correct language once they complete the translation of the post.

Kind regards.
