[Resolved] Translating content coming from a shortcode

Hello, welcome to the WPML support Forum!

Could you send us an example of this shortcode?

It will probably be necessary to register it with XML code (wpml-config.xml - see https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/). After that it should be available on the translation editor.

PS: To ensure the quickest and most accurate support, please provide your debug information so that I can get a look at some of your configurations. We have an excellent article on how to located here: https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/.

NOTE:
Please be sure to check the box to indicate you can provide debug info and paste your debug info in the debug field provided, and NOT in the general response field.

Hi there,

It's possible to register it, then translate the ID attribute with the steps below:
- Add the following XML code to WPML > Settings > Custom XML Configuration

<wpml-config><shortcodes><shortcode><tag>print_responsive_portfolio_plus_lightbox</tag><attributes><attribute>id</attribute></attributes></shortcode></shortcodes></wpml-config>

- Now we need to remove the "numbers" filter from the translation management. Please add the following code to your functions.php file:

**
 * Allow translating numbers
 *
 * @see https://wpml.org/forums/topic/wpbakery-post-grid-element-exclude-from-filter-list-category-reappears
 */
function wpmlsupp_7499_allow_translating_numbers( $is_translatable, $job_translate ) {
    $data = $job_translate['field_data'];
	if ( 'base64' === $job_translate['field_format'] ) {
		$data = base64_decode( $data );
	}
    if ( is_numeric( $data ) ) {
    	return true;
    }
    return $is_translatable;
}
add_filter( 'wpml_tm_job_field_is_translatable', 'wpmlsupp_7499_allow_translating_numbers', 10, 2 );

- After that, go to the edit screen of the page (original language), do a small modification and save.
- After that, you should be able to transalte the ID using the translation editor.

Please let me know if it worked for you.
