Translate Gift Wrap Details

Since that text is held in the wp_options table, you will need to add a key entry to your config file (more on that here in case you want to research: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/#admin-texts)

To keep it simple, add following code in WPML > Settings > Custom XML Configuration section:

<wpml-config>
  <admin-texts>
    <key name="giftwrap_details"/>
  </admin-texts>
</wpml-config>

( If you already have opening and closing <wpml-config> tags, then just add in the <admin-texts></admin-texts> code in between them. )

And then you should be able string translate the option. Please let me know how this works.

Hi Support,

This works! Thank you for the amazing support.

@jerbnl I’m very happy that helped you. Thank you for letting me know.

There is a general problem translating the “Giftwrap Details” string, which is stored in the wp_options table, where it’s trickier for translation plugins to access.

WPML can translate it, but from what I can tell other translation services probably cannot. I’ve released version 3.0.3 of the Giftwrapper plugin, which address the “Giftwrap Details” string by adding a translatable fallback string in case the “Giftwrap Details” option is left BLANK/EMPTY in the Giftwrapper settings.

So, with WPML, you can carry on and use the instructions above, or you can leave the setting blank and translate the fallback/default string (now: “We offer the following gift wrap options:” in English) more easily.
