form text not translated

Hello,

And thank you for your quick and kind reply. But apparently I don’t get the point. I have used yuour example for booking with 2 languages, but ended up with both of them showing on the page. Then, I have created threee saparate booking borm (for each language), but to no avail … it still shows English only. Even though the rest of my page reflect the change the way it shouлд. The new booking forms forms called “german” and “russian” correspondently (and, yes, I did clear the browser cache in the meantime). I can’t show you the page now, because it’s still been tested locally. But here is what I done: Booking > Field settings > fields:

Hi there,

thanks for your reply again, but I couldn’t figured out mu way out of this trouble. Maybe I just don’t understand … I have made 3 separate booking with different languages (and ID’s obviously). But no luck. Names of months and weekdays are translated just finely, but not a form text. I don’t understand why and what is is I’m doing wrong? Another question whould be why do I need to translate language files already presented (e.g. German, Russian)? Arn’t they suppoused work automatically? Any clue?
Sorry to bother you again, but I whant to find a root of the evil. Never had such a headache with a three language websites.

Silly me! Your first advice was absolutely right. The anly differance is that I have to use qtranslate shortcode instead. And now it works! Or at least pretend to do so.
Anyway thank you man very much for your help, time and effort. Greatly appreciate it! You saved my day!

Without your kind help sir I won’t be able to figure it out on my own (true). I’m just a simple-minded webmaster learning to fly WP. That’s all, really. No humbleness intendet. If there’s (for whatever weired reason) a need for a semi-profefessional translator (RU/DE/EN) with some HTML & CSS awareness … you know how to find me.
Anyhow, thank you very much! You responded promptly. Put me to the right direction. Very gratful to you. 🙂 I wish more people like you were around this world (I’m not a hippy btw.). What a wonderful world this would be …. 🙂
Plugin is great! Support is awesome!

i’ll promise to do it within a weeek (as as my customer tested all the needeed functionality needed).
