Honestly, I don’t know. I should create a XML for WPML so that you can translate that with WPML. But whether that worked, I honestly do not know.
Maybe there is also a “WPML compatibility” plugin or something for Loco-Translate. So that one can access the WPML XML. Otherwise you would have to build it again…. so you can pull out all the options with get_option and then do e.g. __( get_option(), ‘textdomain’ ), in your functions.php and experiment around like that.
There are way too many translation plugins unfortunately so I don’t know how they work. With the latest update I’ll try to help you at least a little bit, although I don’t know if this will or can solve your problem. You’ll have to test it out.
Thanks for your feedback and stay healthy!
You can create a must use plugin and then set the filter there and override Helpful’s settings.
Here is an example:
<?php
add_filter( 'helpful_default_values', function( $values ) {
$values['heading'] = __( 'Was this post helpful?', 'helpful-overwritten' );
return $values;
} );
file: /wp-content/mu-plugins/helpful-overwritten.php
You can create the folder if it doesn’t exist. After that you have to translate the plugin helpful-overwritten inside Loco Translate and apply the “advanced configuration”. But then it should work.
Thanks so much for the help! Going to try this.
Cheers
I just found out that we’re also using WPML. It shows me Stringtranslations for Helpful but they seem to be only of elements in the Adminarea, not the user-facing texts. Do you have info available about using WPML to create translations for user-facing texts?
@breinaald
No, I’m afraid I don’t have any information. I don’t use all the plugins and just try to construct solutions. They all work differently.
With the current solution I gave you above, you can translate the texts. You then have to make the individual options translatable yourself, with a mu-plugin.
So with the above solution of mine, you can translate the individual texts in the frontend:

Another solution proposal, I have unfortunately not for you.
