Hello,

The existing strings are not auto translated.

How can we fix that? Also I don't to loose the bulgarian language translations. I want to keep them as it is and want to auto translate for the other languages.

Please let me know what is the best way to proceed with that?

Thanks

Thanks for your patience. Could you tell me a little bit more about the untranslated strings ? Maybe you can include some screenshots and links?

The issue is Initially we had the website in English and later we have changed to bulgarian.

But now we have the Bulgarian translations added. And there are some old translations in the string translation. But I just want to enable the auto translation for all of them without updating the Bulgarian ones.

Can you help ?

Thanks for your reply. String translation and the contents that you translated are not the same. You need to submit your strings for translation. Just check the checkbox beside the strings that you'd like to translate and send it to automatic translation. Could you try?
