Hello!

For some reason we cannot edit admin strings. Screenshot attached. Do you have any ideas?

Best regards,

Hi there.

Before this ticket gets assigned to one of my colleagues, I will try to help.

What that means is that there is an XML configuration that comes with the theme or plugin that you are using already on the site which helps WPML to see the strings and automatically adds them to the WPML > String Translation strings list.

So, if you go to WPML > String Translation > and search for those strings, you should be able to find them and add a translation for each of them.

Please let us know how things go and if you are able to see and translate those strings from inside WPML > String Translation.

We can, but it doesn't change anything in frontend right now. 😀

Hello,

Could you please try to translate those strings with the WPML Translation Editor?

Guide:
https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/create-multilingual-websites-using-woodmart-theme-and-wpml/#translating-header-text-html-information-box-and-button-elements

If this will still not solve the issue, please verify if you are using the latest version of the Woodmart theme.

If an update is available, then please install it.

Also, please go to Plugins > Add new > Commercial and click on "Search for WPML Updates". There should be newer versions of our plugins available. Please install them and then try to translate the header strings again.

If this will still not solve the issue, then please let me know.

Best regards
Andreas
