tasosC	I'm trying to translate the word "Τηλέφωνο" located in my header, from Greek to "Phone" in English. The problem is that I cannot find it anywhere. Search through String translation, searched in template's files but no result. I enabled the option to add rendered words in the database in order to be able to translate them later but still nothing. Any idea where I could be looking?

Mateus Getulio Supporter Languages: English (English ) Portuguese (Brazil) (Português ) Timezone: America/Sao_Paulo (GMT-03:00)	Hello there Thanks for your contact, and welcome to the WPML support forum! Can you please do the following procedure to try to locate those strings? - Please go to WPML -> Theme and plugins localization - Select all plugins in the list and click on "Scan selected plugins for strings" - When that finishes, select your theme in the other list and click on "Scan selected themes for strings" - Now go to WPML -> String Translation and search for one of the items you couldn't find to translate and see if it will display now Another attempt that you can try is to include those strings in String Translation following this procedure: - Go to WPML -> String Translation and click on "Translate texts in admin screens" at the bottom of the page - Search for one of the items you can't translate - Select that string and include it in the String Translation - Go to WPML -> String Translation and search now for that item and see if it will display now for translation Please let me know how you proceed with these possible solutions. Looking forward to your reply! Kind regards, Mateus.

tasosC	Thank you Mateus! It was in the admin texts, so that's why I couldn't find it anywhere else! Thanks a lot!
