Hi
It is explained in the Polylang doc: “To correctly display the languages columns and metabox for custom post types and taxonomies, plugins or theme authors must use the same actions and filters as WordPress. Otherwise there is now way for Polylang to add its own interface.”
Could you please check this with your theme author.
Hi
Thank you for your answer. I’ve contacted with my theme author about this, and they replied that they do not provide support for third-party plugin like that.
Is there any way for me to change theme code by myself, although i am not a coder? Are you able to provide some more detailed instructions, of how i can do that? I would really appreciate that, because everything else on my website is already translated, and i will be forced to try out and translate everyhing again with another plugins, which i don’t found as safe and stable as Polylang.
Thank you in advance.
Have you a wpml-config.xml file in your theme folder?
If yes could you paste its code in this topic by using the ‘code’ button in the toolbar?
Yes, i have.
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<wpml-config>
<custom-types>
<custom-type translate="1">events</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">teams</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">cs_gallery</custom-type>
<custom-type translate="1">cs_slider</custom-type>
</custom-types>
<taxonomies>
<taxonomy translate="1">event-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">event-tag</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">teams-category</taxonomy>
<taxonomy translate="1">teams-tag</taxonomy>
</taxonomies>

I’m having a sudden problem now. Certain texts magically turned out into English on both versions of websites. I just don’t get it. I have a Russian website, partly translated to English. Today some of texts are only on English. I translated one of them into russiam again, and now they are in Russian on both versions of website. What happened and what am I doing wrong?
My website is hotelgroznycity.ru and hitelgroznycity.ru/en
Can you help me add language dropdown switcher to the bottom top menu? I tried solutions which I found here and in documentation but they didn’t worked for me.

Polylang doesn’t offer this possibility.
‘Hotel Booking’ seems to be a custom post type and ‘Rooms’ a taxonomy.
Could you ask to your theme author if he can add them in the wpml-config.xml? Like this Polylang will be able to translate them.
Why Polylang doesn’t offer that possibility? What about shortcodes and html?
That file is located on my hosting, can I edit it by myself? If yes, can you guide me of which code and where should I add? If noat, wha should I specifically tell to theme author?
Thank you.
Some Polylang users have created some shortcodes. To find these relevant topics you can make a search on this forum like this:

Regarding your custom post types could you ask to your theme author how he handles the translation of ‘Rooms’ with WPML?
