OnderY-2	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate content to Kurdish (Kurmanji) using WPML, but the plugin only supports the Sorani version of Kurdish. Symptoms: I expected to see the Kurmanji version of the Kurdish language, but instead, I got the Sorani version. Questions: Why is the Kurmanji version of Kurdish not supported? How can I enable or add support for the Kurmanji version?

Mihai Apetrei Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Bucharest (GMT+02:00)	Hi there. You will need to set up a new custom language for Kurmanji: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/editing-wpmls-languages-table/ Create a new custom language and use "kmr" as the language code. After that, also make sure that inside WPML > Translation Management > Translators > you have the language pairs correctly added. Please let me know how things go. Mihai Apetrei
