Polylang for custom taxonomies/post terms?

Hi!

Did you check the relevant options in Polylang settings?
How did you register these custom taxonomies?

Hi !

So the Post Terms are ok to be translated. The problem is with the “custom taxonomies”, so the titles for the post terms apparently don’t translate: e.g..
Custom taxonomie: Temperature (no translation fields offered)
Post terms: Tropical, Arid, ….. (can be translated)

What do you mean with “how did you register custom taxonomies”? Can you explain please?

Thank you,

Andie

PS. Custom taxonomies is used for Posts, if that is what you mean… still doesn’t show translation option. All boxes at polylang settings are ticked…

How did you register these custom taxonomies?

Chouby mean, does it a custom code or do you use a plugin to do that (please provide a link to upload it)?

Hi, thanks,

they are registered with “Simple taxonomy”:

Can you recommend to register with anything else instead that is free and “translatable”???

Best regards,

Andie

Did you check the option “Post Terms” for Custom taxonomies (Languages > Settings tab)?

Yes, I have ticked all the boxes.

Post terms are being translated, what is not translated is the taxonomy – name.
So if the taxonomy is the word “climate”, that does not have any translation options.
Whilst the post terms: “meditarranean”, “arid” etc can be translated….

The code below should work. Copy/paste thsi code in a wpml-config.xml then upload it in /wp-content/polylang/ (create the directory if it does not exist). Then go in the Strings Translation options to translate the “name”.

See: https://polylang.wordpress.com/documentation/documentation-for-developers/the-wpml-language-configuration-file/

<wpml-config>
	<admin-texts>
		<key name="simple-taxonomy">
			<key name="taxonomies">
				<key name="simple-tax">
					<key name="name" />
				</key>
			</key>
		</key>
	</admin-texts>
</wpml-config>
