paulL-10	We are using ListingPro. We have used String Translate to translate parts of the theme. There are lots of instances but one for example is the banner text. Although it translates ok in the beginning, once you switch the language in the header to Welsh (in the admin area) and then back to English the Welsh text then shows on the English version of the site on the front end. When looking in WPML it looks like the English text there is also in Welsh too. I have deleted the strings and had to change the text manually back to English and tried again but it does the same thing. I have also tried making sure that the language of the selected strings is correct but no change. Any help would be appreciated on this. hidden link

Subash Chandra Poudel	Hi there, First of all, I see your site only has 40 MB of WP memory limit which is less than the WPML requirement and could cause issues. Please add this near the end in your wp-config.php file (just before /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. / ) as explained in the next link Then, see if it makes any difference. {code} /* WP Memory Limit */ define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M'); {/code} https://wpml.org/faq/checklist-before-opening-a-ticket-in-wpml-support/#how-to-increase-your-sites-memory-limit The wp-config.php file is located in your WordPress root directory. It’s the same file where the database configuration settings are. You will have to access it by FTP or SFTP in order to edit it. If the issue still persists, can you please try the following test in the staging/test site and let me know how it goes: - Deactivate all plugins except WPML plugins. - Test the Theme string translation and see if the issue is resolved now or not. - If it is resolved, activate the original plugins one at a time and test the original issue each time to find which one starts the issue again. Looking forward to your test results. Regards, Subash
