Problem: The client needed to reinstate the language option next to the search icon on their website. During the translation process, the entire header was deleted, and although the flags were restored, they were incorrectly positioned and styled. Solution: We recommended the client to ensure they have a backup of their site, which can be done using the UpdraftPlus plugin. After confirming the backup, we provided custom CSS to correct the positioning and styling of the language switcher. Here is the CSS code we used:
.sitepress_container > .wpml-ls ul ul li a:hover::after {
background-color: transparent!important;
}
}

Problem: The client is attempting to translate media on their WordPress site using WPML but encounters issues because the media is not translated. The Houzez Theme used by the client is currently not marked as compatible with WPML, which complicates the translation process. Solution: 1. To translate media elements, follow the steps in our official documentation: WPML Media Translation Guide. 2. Meta information for images (like alt and caption) will only be translated automatically if they are used on a page or post that is translated using the WPML Translation Editor. However, since the Houzez Theme is not compatible, we recommend translating this information manually within the media library or using WPML > Media Translation. 3. For images used as a background in page builders like Elementor, ensure they are part of the content to be translatable automatically. If the image is added as a style setting (e.g., background-image), it will not be translated automatically. 4. If encountering issues with theme compatibility, inform the Houzez Support about the issues between Houzez and WPML for further assistance.

Problem: The client is attempting to translate the footer on their website using WPML but is encountering issues where the footer is not being translated. Solution: We recommended checking how the footers are added. If they are added through a footer template or the WordPress widgets area, different approaches might be needed: 1. If the footer is set in the Houzez theme, we advised checking the compatibility and translation guidelines here: Creating Multilingual Real Estate Sites with Houzez Theme and WPML. It's important to note that Houzez may not be fully compatible with WPML. 2. If there is an Elementor footer template, we suggested following the steps outlined here: Creating Different Elementor Templates per Language with WPML and here: How to Translate Elementor with WPML.

Problem: Sie versuchen, Medien auf Ihrer Website mit WPML zu übersetzen, aber die Medien werden nicht übersetzt. Solution: Überprüfen Sie zunächst in WPML > Einstellungen > Media Translation, ob die Option
Translate media library texts with posts
aktiviert ist. Wenn diese Option aktiviert ist, werden die Medien immer zusammen mit den Beiträgen übersetzt. Sollte dies der Fall sein und die Medien dennoch nicht übersetzt werden, empfehlen wir, diese Option zu deaktivieren. Weitere Informationen finden Sie in unserer Dokumentation: Media Translation Modul.

Problem: Der Kunde möchte die Sprachoption nicht im Menü seiner Website integrieren, sondern neben dem Such-Icon positionieren, ohne Programmierkenntnisse zu benötigen. Solution: Wenn du die Sprachoption aus dem Menü entfernen möchtest, kannst du dies unter WPML > Sprachen tun, indem du den Menü-Sprachumschalter deaktivierst. Um den Sprachumschalter neben dem Such-Icon zu platzieren, kannst du den Custom Language Switcher verwenden, der über das Shortcode Widget in Elementor eingebunden werden kann. Hier findest du Anleitungen dazu:
Bitte beachte, dass die Anpassung des Styles des Sprachumschalters möglicherweise die Hilfe eines Entwicklers erfordert.
Diese Lösung könnte aufgrund von Aktualisierungen oder spezifischen Umständen deiner Website irrelevant sein.
