Custom Work

Problem:
You are developing a site and need to add a custom currency or set different prices for different languages using the same currency. You found that the multi-currency plugin allows adding currencies like Solana or Bitcoin, and you are wondering if you can add your own custom currency to set different prices per currency.
Solution:
1) Adding a custom currency is not a feature provided by WPML but by WooCommerce. You should add your custom currency to WooCommerce, and then you can use it in WPML/WCML. We recommend checking the WooCommerce developer documentation on how to add a custom currency symbol here: https://woocommerce.com/document/add-a-custom-currency-symbol/
2) It is not possible to set different prices for different languages using the same currency in WPML. Each language version of a product is a translation of another, so the content and prices should remain consistent unless they are created as separate products.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Problem:
The client was unable to display translated regions, countries, and ports on their website using the Elementor Custom HTML widget.
Solution:
We recommended using the wpml_object_id filter hook to fetch translated post IDs in the current language. Detailed guidance on this hook is available at WPML documentation.
For Ajax-loaded data, we advised passing the current language to the callback function. Instructions for handling Ajax requests can be found at WPML documentation.
Additionally, we provided custom code examples to localize scripts and modify Ajax requests to ensure the correct language is used:

// Get the current WPML language
$current_language = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', null );
 
// Localize the script with the current language
wp_localize_script( 'common-js', 'wpmlData', array(
    'currentLanguage' => $current_language,
));

lang: wpmlData.currentLanguage

These changes were implemented on the client's staging site. If further customization is needed, we recommended contacting a certified WPML contractor from this list.

Problem:
The client is trying to translate customized fields using WPML but encounters an issue where the translations do not appear on the frontend. The client used a custom hook and registered labels to WPML, translating them successfully. However, despite following documentation and using code examples, the translations are not visible on the frontend.
Solution:
1. Ensure the text domain is correct. According to WordPress documentation, the text domain must use dashes, be lowercase, and have no spaces.
2. When using variables in translated strings, use the

printf()

function instead of echoing the variable directly. For example, change:

<p id="popup-title"><?= $popuptitle ?></p>

to:

<p id="popup-title"><?php echo __('Subscribe Now, Save 10%', 'storefront') ?></p>

After making these changes, re-scan the strings in the child theme, translate the string, and check if the translation displays on the frontend.
3. If using a custom text domain like "popup", register it with the following function in your theme's

functions.php

file:

add_action( 'after_setup_theme', function() {
    load_theme_textdomain( 'popup', get_template_directory() . '/languages' );
} );

Refer to the WordPress documentation on loading a text domain for more details.
