Hi,

I'm using reusable blocks, I managed to translate them somehow (I forgot it exactly because it was a lot of trial and error).

But when I visit the secondary page hidden link the reusable blocks are not translated, they are shown in the primary language. On this page it are the two blocks, called:
* DE ERVARINGEN VAN CLIËNTEN
* WILT U EEN AFSPRAAK OF MEER WETEN?

See also the attached image.

How can I get to show these blocks in the right language?

If needed I can share the back-end logon information.

And I also read: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/generatepress-elements-not-appearing-in-the-frontend/
https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-content-created-using-gutenberg-editor/translating-reusable-blocks/

Thanks, Henk

Thank you for contacting WPML support. While you are waiting for one of my colleagues to take this ticket and work on it, let me provide you with first debugging steps or if I can perhaps help with the issue quickly. Can you tell me a little more about your site? Do you see this content in the translation editor when you edit the page? It may be helpful if we can login and check how you are displaying the content on the backend. You are welcome to add credentials in the next reply using the private fields and we will be happy to take a closer look.

Hello Henk,

Unfortunately, the admin access you shared is not working and giving the following error : hidden link

I made sure there are no added spaces and double-checked the password, could you please verify if the access you shared is correct?

I will open another private field for you,

Thanks,

Hello,

Thank you for your patience,

I was able to fix most of your issues, here is what I did and why :

1- I found out that you are missing a key plugin called WPML string translation, many strings, and elements started showing as translated again the moment I installed it.

2- One key widget isn't working as expected, is the review widget from "wp review slider pro", unfortunately, this plugin is not compatible with WPML as when I check your templates here : hidden link

I could see that there is no way to translate them not make them translatable from WPML settings, however, when I edit the filter on the concerned template (ID number 7), I could see this checkbox: hidden link

Logically, this button was made by the makers of "wp review slider pro" to insure some sort of compatibility with WPML, but enabling it didn't help much.

My recommendation is to contact them and ask them how this checkbox is supposed to work and how could we use it to make the reviews filter respect the language selected.

Because when you see the list of reviews, I could clearly assign the language but not sure how we could use this in filters: hidden link

Please let me know if you found a way to use it,

Thanks,
