Wrong language in Quick-View modal

Hey guys, right now, I am in the process of building a web store using WordPress and WooCommerce. Up to now, most stuff is working really well, however I am having one minor issue that bothers me and I couldn’t get solved so far.

The theme I am using (Polestar by purothemes) includes a “quickview” feature for products (that pops up a modal with core info etc. instead of having to open the product page itself. Not that I had intentionally looked for this feature but it is sort of nice…

The problem is: The store itself is supposed to be in another language (Swedish) than the back end (German). No problem – WordPress allows for setting different languages for both; additionally, I installed the Loco Translate plugin for fast and easy on-the-fly translations. All this works like a charm save one specific instance: When the quickview modal pops up, it displays the “add to baskets” button and a dropdown selection menu to choose between 2 different product sizes in German instead of Swedish. This behavior does not occur on the actual product page itself (there, everything in Swedish).

When wondering where this strange behavior might come from, I found out that it has to do with the language set for administration of the backend! Every time I changed this language, the faulty elements in the quickview modal were displayed in that respective language, as well.

This behavior seems to be independent of themes or plugins (installed and tried another theme that has this quickview feature – same result; installed another theme without this feature and used a quickview plugin for WooCommerce instead – same result). Also disabling the Loco Translate plugin yielded no improvement. So the idea seems natural that this is a bug within the WooCommerce plugin itself.

Any idea where this bug is and how to solve it? Any help is much appreciated!

Thank you very much,
