    You say Cookie Law Info supports WPML and I see how one could localize Cookie information within the plugin and WPML but I don’t see how to have multiple languages of the Cookie Bar itself, the bar text, buttons, and tab appear in whatever language I type them in within the Cookie Law settings and those strings do not appear in WPML when looking to localize/translate them. The one article on it also mentions qTranslate, but qTranslate has not been updated in over 2 years and completely untested on the last 3 major releasees of WordPress thus unreliable. How can I have multiple language versions of the text and links that appear in the Cookie Bar?

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hi. Same question here! Also how can I use Added New Cookie Law Info – can I use it as “Read More” and with different languages?

    We have found some issues with WPML compatibility. We will be correcting those translation related issues and will be updating within a week or two.

    Hi @markwt, I’ve noticed that sometimes the main language strings get replaced by one of the additional languages’ strings when using WPML string translation. Is this the issue that you say that will be solved soon? I see the plugin was updated a few days ago, but the problem persists.

    Hi @ovejabeja

    We are updating the po/mo translation with new language updates. WPML compatibility missing section is not updated yet.

    Is there a working solution? Still waiting.

    Same question : how to translate the content of the banner in 3 languages?

    I see another problem:

    The translation of the message and buttons etc works with WPML. For the people that don’t know, you can translate the texts into different languages via the WPML String Translation. This works fine with WPML language switcher. The only problem I have is that I can only set one link for the [cookie_link]. This is problematic as the link that you put in here always links to the same page. Since my privacy policy page is in German, I need a different link. Is there a way to add several links for the [cookie_link] or tell it to do a redirect, depending on the choose language?

    Grateful for any help.

    Thx

    Folks, I solved it!!!!! :).

    Here is what you do to solve this one last problem:

    You set up the reject button with the additional link you want to have. In my case: The Privacy Policy page in English. Then you go to WPML String Translation and translate the message including buttons. Make sure you implement the [cookie_reject] in the translation.
    For me it basically looked like this:

    This website uses cookies. By continuing to use the website, you agree to the use of cookies. Further information on cookies can be found in our privacy policy.
    [cookie_button] [cookie_reject]

    —————————————–

    This works fine if you have only two different languages! If you need three languages or more, and more different links to the privacy pages in the respectives languages, then it won’t work.

    I hope I could be of help.

    Best regards,
    Simon
