Hi Bobby,

You said you have reverted all the "ville" strings to "city" and 'agent_city' as a test to solve the issue with the footer on french version. You said you were doing some further testing and will update me once you have feedback.

However, since your modifications, I noticed the footer of the french version of my website seems to work now. So thank you for your help on that!

I am also having an issue with that page hidden link on the french version. You can access it from the french version of my website, then click on "À propos" in the main menu.

The page in french that was created by WPML is not the same than the english version: visuals were affected and translations are missing and not showing in string translations.

Please follow this link to my screencast video explaining the issue with that page:

I am looking forward to hear from you on that one as this is the most important page of my website!

Thank you for your assistance!

Hello, Bobby is off for a few days so I am stepping in to help out. I took a look at the English link and compared it to the French link, but I'm not seeing the visual differences. Can you send me a screenshot of what specifically does not look correct in French so I can look into this further?

Thanks for sharing the video, this makes sense. I'll need to see how those property charts are created, and also how the properties are inserted on to the page.

I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to take better look at the issue. You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply. The information you will enter is private which means only you and I can see and have access to it.

Our Debugging Procedures

I will be checking various settings in the backend to see if the issue can be resolved. Although I won't be making changes that affect the live site, it is still good practice to backup the site before providing us access. In the event that we do need to debug the site further, I will duplicate the site and work in a separate, local development environment to avoid affecting the live site.

Privacy and Security Policy

We have strict policies regarding privacy and access to your information. Please see:
https://wpml.org/purchase/support-policy/privacy-and-security-when-providing-debug-information-for-support/

**IMPORTANT**

- Please make a backup of site files and database before providing us access.

- If you do not see the wp-admin/FTP fields this means your post & website login details will be made PUBLIC. DO NOT post your website details unless you see the required wp-admin/FTP fields. If you do not, please ask me to enable the private box. The private box looks like this: hidden link

All sounds good! I truly appreciate your help as I have been having challenges since I installed WPML on my website.

Someone from your team is working on another issue and also requested my credentials. I feel like it would be best to share my credentials with no more than one person at the time. What do you think? If we are on the same page, can I provide you my website credentials once I am done with your colleague?

Thank you and again for your help!

Sure if you prefer to wait until the other issue is resolved, that's okay with me. Simply reply in the next response once you feel it is okay to send me the credentials and I will be happy to further assist you.

When I log in to your site, and edit the page hidden link, I don't see how you can edit the graph or data that is used to create the draft. How are you inserting the content into the actual page? Is there a template I should use? Also, how do you insert the listings into the page? I couldn't edit that content either.

Hi Lauren,

Thank you for checking my ticket. I don't know, this came with Houzez theme... It's part of it, so it should be translated into french without affecting the visuals... I am not sure how I can help you.

I suggest reaching out to the theme and ask them where that content can be edited or where it is coming from. I will need to know that in order to determine how/where it should be translated. Perhaps it is coming from custom fields or a template?

Hi Lauren,

I’m having trouble understanding why I’m being asked to contact the theme directly. As I mentioned earlier, both WPML and the Houzez theme advertise full compatibility, and the page in question came with the theme—it's not one I created after installation.

Would it be possible for you to reach out to Houzez directly to look into this with them?

The English version of my website is working perfectly, but the French version (created using WPML) is experiencing issues with visuals and other elements. Based on my understanding, the issue likely lies with WPML or could be a compatibility problem. However, I don’t believe this is something I should be responsible for addressing.

I appreciate your help and look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you!

I understand the issue as you are explaining it. What I need to know is how that particular content is being added to that particular page. Once I have that information, I will be able to determine how to translate it. I cannot contact Houzzez author unless you are able to reproduce this content on a staging site. I am happy to provide a link where you can upload a copy of your theme and reproduce the issue. However, it would be much faster if you are able to tell me how to edit this content. For example, the graph that is not showing in translation - where to you get those percentages from? How do you display the graph on this particular page? Are y ou adding it into a template? do you put the percentages into a custom field? These are the more exact answers that I need to determine how to translate the content using WPML.

I doubt this path will lead to a resolution of the issues, but I followed your recommendation and I contacted Houzez support.

PLEASE DON'T CLOSE THIS TICKET, I WILL FORWARD YOU THE RESPONSE OF HOUZEZ THEME SUPPORT TEAM.

Also, I noted that following our conversation, the graph and the listings on this page disappeared: hidden link

Could you please let me know what modifications you did to my website?

Thank you,

I have not made any modifications to your site. All I did was open the page to see how the content is edited. Since I couldn't edit it from there, I closed the page without any changes.

I will look forward to the reply from Houzez to figure out how to create and edit that content that is not being translated.

What a coincidence, as the 2 items that were removed from this page were the one that needs fixing.

Ok, I will forward to you the response from Houzez as soon as they response. In the meantime, please leave this ticket open.

Thank you for your help!
