 * Hello,
 * I have created a Custom Post Type “faq” in my function.php, I can translate it,
   but when I go to the [https://www.myafterme.com/en/wp-json/wp/v2/faq/91](https://www.myafterme.com/en/wp-json/wp/v2/faq/91)
   I cannot get the translation. Do I miss something ? I cannot find any anwser 
   to my question.
 *     ```wp-block-code
        $labels = array(
               'name'               => 'Foire aux questions',
               'singular_name'      => 'Question fréquente',
               'menu_name'          => 'FAQ',
               'name_admin_bar'     => 'Question fréquente',
               'add_new'            => 'Ajouter',
               'add_new_item'       => 'Ajouter une nouvelle question fréquente',
               'new_item'           => 'Nouvelle question fréquente',
               'edit_item'          => 'Éditer la question fréquente',
               'view_item'          => 'Voir la question fréquente',
               'all_items'          => 'Toutes les questions fréquentes',
               'search_items'       => 'Rechercher des questions fréquentes',
               'parent_item_colon'  => 'Question fréquente parente :',
               'not_found'          => 'Aucune question fréquente trouvée.',
               'not_found_in_trash' => 'Aucune question fréquente trouvée dans la corbeille.'
           );
   
           $args = array(
               'labels'             => $labels,
               'public'             => true,
               'publicly_queryable' => true,
               'show_ui'            => true,
               'show_in_menu'       => true,
               'show_in_rest'       => true,
               'query_var'          => false,
               'capability_type'    => 'post',
               'has_archive'        => false,
               'hierarchical'       => false,
               'menu_position'      => null,
               'rewrite'            => array('slug' => 'faq'),
               'supports'           => array('title', 'thumbnail','editor'),
               'menu_icon'          => 'dashicons-testimonial',
           );

 * Hi,
 * Did you use the latest version of our plugin?
   The rest-api is processed through
   the translation engine in TranslatePress. So you can access it at _/de/wp-json/
   wp/v2/posts?197/,_ for example, where _197 _is the id of the post.Basically, 
   every REST endpoint is processed when accessed via the language prefix.

 * Hi,
 * Yes, I’m on the 2.7.0, the latest I can see.
 * Sorry, have you seen the link [https://www.myafterme.com/en/wp-json/wp/v2/faq/91](https://www.myafterme.com/en/wp-json/wp/v2/faq/91)?
 * This is a real project, and I already did the translation in the back office.
 * We can see, that the slug has changed but not the rest. This is a Custom Post
   Type, do I need to do something or do I have any issue on capabilities or something
   else ?

 * Hello,
 * Since I had no anwser from you, I search for a few hours and I found were was
   the issue, when you register the post type, make sure to put a priority on the
   add_action(‘init’, ‘register_faq_post_type’, 1);
 * In this case, you will see the translation in the API.
 * Is it the right way to do it ?
