 * Hi I’ve a big problem to translate text in my template. I use [:en]EnglishText[:
   it]TestoItaliano in content but it not recognized and in front-end showing exactly[:
   en]EnglishText[:it]TestoItaliano not traslated. Why? Where I’m wrong ? Is possibile
   it depend from Legacy Builder and Visual Composer used to create the page ?
 * Thanks

 * I’m working with the team deveoppers (Nevada) to make it work.
 * It seems there is code modification to be made inside the theme for the switch
   codes to work.

 * I am not sure this solution could work for you. In my website in some parts what
   you mentioned that you try works for me but in some others it does not and i 
   write instead:
 * <!–:en–>english text<!–:–><!–:it–>italian text<!–:–>
 * in case the above does not work for you try also with capital :IT

   guess.
 * Please help!
