nielsO-5	Hi , I would like to translate something in my menu (Kostenlozer Start --> Kostenlozer Test). But when I go to Display --> Menus I don't see it there (because it's 2 separate buttons?). Now I looked at synch WP menus. There the menus are very different than I have it now. Now I then click on synch, but then the translation (Kostenlozer Start --> Kostenlozer Test) is not there. What should I do now? Can you take a look? P.s. I added the translation to stringtranslation

Nicolas V. Supporter Languages: English (English ) French (Français ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	Hello, Thanks for the screenshot. You mentioned that you added the translation in "WPML > String Translation. But please make sure that you translated both menu "Main menu" and "Main menu 2". Because I can see that for the Main menu it shows as "login @en" or "login @fr" which is how it looks when it's not translated yet.

Nicolas V. Supporter Languages: English (English ) French (Français ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	Hi, I just visited your site and I can see that both buttons have been translated. Did you find the solution afterwards? Or maybe it was a cache issue?

nielsO-5	It is still Kostenloser Start, but it has to be Kostenloser Test. It translated it in String Translation but it does not appear in WP synch menu's. I translate the menu's normally in Display --> Menus , but the two buttons on the right (kostenloser start and Anmeldung) Does not appear there, so that is why i go to WP Synch menu's. Only for those two buttons.
