Background of the issue: Here Is there any special procedure I need to be following? I'm using WPML and I try always scan xstore, elementor and Woocommerce for new strings. I also use the option "Track where strings appear on the site", "Auto register strings for translation" and try "Translate texts in admin screens". What else do I need to do? Symptoms: Questions: |

Hi there. Thank you for your incredible patience throughout the debugging process. To help troubleshoot the issue further, I would like to replicate your website on a local environment. Before proceeding, I will need your written approval to duplicate your site using a plugin called "Duplicator" (or a similar one) and debug the issue on a testing environment. Could you please confirm if this is ok with you? Please create a full backup of your website before responding. Once the issue is resolved, the duplicate site will be deleted. I will be waiting for your confirmation. |

Hi there. Thank you so much for your incredible patience as we’ve been investigating the string translation issue with WooCommerce blocks. After thorough testing, I’ve discovered that these strings require a custom approach to become fully translatable. From what I’ve gathered through hidden link" rel="noopener" target="_blank">existing tickets from other customers, this issue began after moving the stand-alone plugin into WooCommerce. I also found several cases unrelated to Cart Blocks, specifically concerning Checkout Blocks that appear on the checkout page. You can take a look at the related errata in this case here: https://wpml.org/errata/woocommerce-checkout-block-fails-to-translate-some-values/. I’m going to escalate this to our development team right away to explore some custom code solutions that will help us translate those specific strings. I’ll keep you updated as soon as I have more information. Thank you again for your amazing understanding and cooperation! |

Hi there! Thank you so much for your fantastic patience while we looked into this. I’m excited to share the findings from our dev team after their thorough investigation. It appears that the strings you're seeing are being added through JavaScript, which is a bit different from the usual methods used by WordPress and its plugins/themes. While we’re not entirely sure why this approach was chosen, we want to help you find a solution. Currently, our system doesn’t support scanning and translating strings in blocks that exist only in .js files. However, a great workaround is to use a plugin like "Loco Translate" to handle these translations effectively. If you have any questions or need further assistance on this matter, feel free to reach out! Check out the attached screenshot so that you can see how you can find the strings and translate them with the help of the plugin I mentioned. Please let me know how things go. |

Hi there. Yes, you can install it and use it simultaneously with WPML. |
