Hi,
I have a site which uses Booking theme hidden link The theme and its plugins are in english, while the whole content (sites and posts) are in polish (default, native language).
Regarding translating posts and sites its clear -> set polish as default and then add english translations but what about theme strings? they are originally in english, I need to transalte them into polish, but how to do this?
Here is an example: hidden link
All editable content is in polish, while theme strings are in english (eg "per night", "guests" and so on.
What is the best way to solve this?

Hi Eliza,

Thank you for contacting WPML support, I'd be happy to help you with this issue.

You can go to WPML > String Translation to translate strings into Polish. If the source language of the string is Polish but the content is English, you can change the source language of the string as well. Please follow the documentation
https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/how-to-change-the-source-language-of-strings/

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks
