<b>Background of the issue: </b>
I am trying to translate the Product Tabs title string [xts-woodmart-options]additional_tab_title using WPML. The issue can be seen on this page: hidden link.

<b>Symptoms: </b>
I can no longer find the string via string translation and have to search for it on the Admin Texts Translation page. Then it shows up but it says 'Registered and locked'.

<b>Questions: </b>
Why is the string showing as 'Registered and locked'?

I was able to translate this string before

I also want to add that this is a custom text that you can add to the product tabs in Woodmart theme. See screenshot. And I was able to translate these before.

I also tried to search strings with "exact match" option ticked but no luck.

Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you to resolve the issue.

Does it happen with other strings? Please untick the *Exact match* (as per the following screenshot) option and search the string by *Ask a question about* or *Ask a*. Then ensure it shows the string for translation or not.

https://wpml.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/16809880-Screenshot_2025_03_13_075545.png

Becuase if a string is showing as Register & Locked in WPML>>String Translation>>Register admin and settings strings for translation, it will be listed for translation.

Also, please visit WPML>>Translation Management Dashboard, and scroll down to *Other texts (Strings)* section and check this string is showing for translation or not. Refer to the attached image for more details.

Please note that I have opened a new ticket for the *custom text* issue. As per our support policies, we can address only one problem per ticket. This approach allows us to assist you more efficiently and keeps discussions focused. I will respond to the new ticket shortly. I appreciate your understanding.

Hello Bigul,
the issue concerns the title of the Product Tabs element by Woodmart theme. So it allows you to enter a custom title. And I did so and translated it successfully before. I recently renamed one of the tabs and then noticed I can no longer find and translate it in string translation.

I searched for it with "exact match" unchecked and could not find it.

And I tried the "Translation Management - Other strings" too, it does not appear there.

What I also tried to do is scanning Woodmart theme again for strings, but it does not help.

What I'm looking for, the " [xts-woodmart-options]additional_tab_title " seems nowhere to be found

Hello Bigul,
please use my staging site. I can't provide access to the production site. Also the production site is not available in all countries that's why it shows that messages, it can only be visited from Europe/USA.
I already provided access to staging
