Hello,

Thanks for contacting us.

While you wait for my colleague to take over the ticket, let me try to help you with the issue quickly.

You can send them for translation by selecting them in that screen or you can go to WPML > String translation and translate them manually.

- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/

Let us know if any doubts.

Regards,
Drazen

I'm Osama from WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

First of all, sorry for the late reply; it was due to a higher workload.

1) Please share screenshots of these strings in WPML-> String Translation.

2) Could you please share your Debug information with me?
You can read a detailed explanation about it here. (http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support)
The debug info will give me much information about how your site is configured.

Best regards,

Hello

As you can see I have danish selected, but languages to the right are danish and german and not german and english

hidden link

Example from the product add on setup

This is a modified plugin but the content in the inputs aren't modified.

I'm also setting up AutomateWoo and i'm getting dublicate creations or emails for the danish language when testing, any thoughts on this?

Thanks

Automatewoo issue still persists, and thoughts here to check would be great thanks

Hi,

1) It's great to hear that the issue is fixed. 🙂

2) We try to keep one issue per ticket in our forum. As the original issue is resolved, may I kindly ask you to open a new ticket for your additional question?

Continuing with one ticket per issue helps supporters focus on one issue at a time and enables other users to find solutions to their questions faster.

Thanks for your understanding

Best regards,
Osama
