grzegorzK-16	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate registration info in the blocksy-companion domain using WPML > String translation. There is a link to the screenshot: hidden link Symptoms: The translation has no effect on the front end. The message 'An account is already registered with your email address. Please log in.' remains untranslated. Questions: Why is the translation not appearing on the front end?

grzegorzK-16	Hi! On sandbox everything is OK! So I do not know what is going on... 1) I have installed WooCommerce. 2) In WooCommerce I have enabled: Settings > Accounts & Privacy > "Allow customers to create an account on the "My account" page". 3) I have switched to Child Theme. 4) Open the Polish version of the blog: hidden link 5) Click the person icon in the header to open a popup for logging in or registering. 6) Go to "Zarejestruj się" (Sign up) tab. 7) Register new a user. 8) You will see the correct translation.

grzegorzK-16	Hi! I fixed it :)!!! 1) I removed the "Your account was created successfully. Your login details have been sent to your email address. Please visit the %1$slogin page%2$s." from WPML > String translation. 2) I have pressed "Can't find the strings you're looking to translate?" 3) I have checked Blocky theme and Blocksy Companion plugin and pressed "Scan translation files" 4) I went to WPML > String translation again and found the deleted string and translated it. 5) Now it is OK Now I will check if same procedure will fix my previous issue sent to you.

grzegorzK-16	Hi! Unfortunately, it turned out that there is a problem all the time. Before the weekend, I didn't test it correctly. It turned out that the correct translation can be seen on the front-end, but only when the "Look for strings while pages are rendered" option is enabled. After turning it off, there is no proper translation. I have tested it many times. I did not do it in the sandbox. It is on live blog. regards, Grzegorz

grzegorzK-16	Hi! I have tested the same in the sandbox as well. And the same issue is there: The correct translation can be seen on the front-end, only when the " Look for strings while pages are rendered" option is enabled. After turning it off, there is no proper translation. regards, Grzegorz

Long Nguyen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi, I see that issue on the sandbox site. The success registration message is loaded via Ajax so there could be an issue with the translation string. I suggest you use the action WooCommerce Account page instead of opening the modal and see if it helps. Looking forward to your reply. Thanks

grzegorzK-16	Hmmm.... 🙂 Other string is translated without any problem. So, displaying the success registration message should work correctly as well. Thanks, Grzegorz

grzegorzK-16	Hi! I am pasting info from Blocksy support: "Hmm, I'm not entirely sure that WPML could work here, as this is a string that's defined in the core translation files, not the database. A string like this is usually recommended to be translated using a specialised tool, such as Loco Translate." Using Blocksy support advice I have installed Loco Translate plugin: 1) I found a problematic string in Loco Translate > Plugins > Blocksy Companion. 2) I have translated it into Polish. 3) (Important!) I have relocated translations in Loco Translate > Plugins > Blocksy Companion: from: System -languages/plugins/blocksy-companion-pl_PL.po to: Custom - languages/loco/plugins/blocksy-companion-pl_PL.po 4) And now it works 🙂 I am very interested about your opinion about it. Can I leave it now? regards, Grzegorz

Long Nguyen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi, As I mentioned, the success registration message string is different from other strings, it is loaded via Ajax. I'm asking our 2nd tier support about this issue and update you here when I have something to share. Thanks.

Long Nguyen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi, I got a workaround from our 2nd tier support to translate the success registration message string. Please follow steps below: 1. Open .../wp-content/plugins/blocksy-companion/framework/features/account-auth.php file. 2. Look for line 247, replace the code: $errors->add('registered', $error_message, 'message'); with this one: // WPML Workaround for compsupp-7437 if ( class_exists('Sitepress') ) { $string = $error_message; $textdomain = 'WordPress'; $string_name = 'WPML Workaround : '.substr($string, 0, 20); $wpml_default_lang = apply_filters('wpml_default_language', NULL ); $wpml_current_lang = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL ); if ($wpml_default_lang == $wpml_current_lang ) { do_action( 'wpml_register_single_string', $textdomain, $string_name, $string ); } // Apply the translation to the string $string = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $string , $textdomain, $string_name); $error_message = $string; // Replace the title } $errors->add('registered', $error_message, 'message'); 3.Visit the front-end and try to register a new user in the default language. 4. Go to WPML > String Translation > Translate the new string under the domain WordPress. ❌ IMPORTANT: Please backup your database and website before proceeding ❌ Looking forward to your reply. Thanks

grzegorzK-16	Hi! Thank you very much for the workaround. It works properly! 🙂 But the workaround key is to modify something in the Blocksy Companion plugin. So after actualization, it will stop working. So I have sent it to Blocksy support. I am waiting for their answer. I will let you know as soon as I get it. regards, Grzegorz
