Sliders – Transating text

    Hi All,

    I use the Customizr Theme (no Customizr child theme installed) and I’m designing a multiligual site (English & French) with Polylang to enable my users to switch languages and translate the written content.

    One thing I noticed is that my sliders and their associated text are not showing up in my translation strings. Are they supposed to? If not, how can I add them? If they are supposed to show up, what am I doing wrong here?

    FYI, my Polylang setings are as follows:
    – Default language: English
    – URL modifications:
    – SELECTED The language is set from the directory name in pretty permalinks
    – SELECTED Remove /language/ in pretty permalinks
    – Detect browser language: CHECKED When the front page is visited, set the language according to the browser preference
    – Media: CHECKED Activate languages and translations for media
    – Synchronization: None selected

    Thanks in advance to all who reply.

    Cheers,

    Marc

    Hi

    If not, how can I add them?

    You must create a slider per language.

    Hello Chrystl,

    Did that. Works for every page except my French home page. Keeps displaying the English version of my slider.

    If you visit my site, https://www.datatelcom.com, you’ll see what I mean.

    FYI,
    – I used the appearance/customise/Content: Front page to set the slider on the home page (HomePage-Slider).
    – Home page has no slider selected.
    – Switch to French page (Accueil), English slider (HomePsge-Slider) shows up
    – Went to Accueil page and set slider to PageAccueil-Slider (French version), no joy. HomePage-Slider english version is still coming up

    At this point I’m at a loss as to what I’m doing wrong.

    I tested and it works for me.

    Go in Strings translation and fill the name of your english and french sliders and save your changes.

    Only reference to sliders I have in string translation is the following witch is set with the proper Enlish and French slider name

    Customizr Front page slider name homepage-slider
    English: homepage slider
    Fran?ais: pageaccueil slider

    No joy ??

    Also, just noticed that when I save my string translations, the French slider name reverts back to homepage-slider

    the French slider name reverts back to homepage-slider

    It’s only the slider or you have the same problem with all your strings?

    Only the slider BUT, solved the problem. I selected the clean string database, re-entered the French slider name, saved it and it worked.

    Thanks for the assist Chrystl
