    Hi,
    I am trying to implement multilingualism with Polylang.
    I can duplicate a da_image and translate the text, but as the illustration image contains text, I have to change the image according to the language.
    The problem is that when I change the image, it changes for all da_images.
    How do I do this?
    With kind regards,`

    Hello @css31

    We don’t have very much experience working with Polylang (more with WPML), but with most translation plugins you should just be able to set a different featured image for each translation.

    I did find this forum with a similar issue to yours – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/polylang-will-not-display-featured-image-in-2nd-language/

    @bralingo mentioned, “I was able to set different featured images with a change to the settings under the Polylang Language settings. There is a section called Synchronization. Choose Options and deselect featured image. Then save. After that, I set the featured image for each translation and it displays correctly for each.”

    If that doesn’t help, you’ll need to contact the Polylang team and ask how to have different featured images in translations. This should also be happening with all other post types, is that true?

    Thanks,

    Hello Nathalie,

    Thank you very much.

    That’s the solution: “to set a different featured image for each translation”.

    There is a setting in Polylang/settings/Synchronisation/… where you can choose to synchronize the featured image or not.

    Best,
