   more, the categories appear but clicking on the drop-down the following errors

 * [@marketmataro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/marketmataro/) i found the
   problem, when you translate the plugin following the documentation from [https://www.webtoffee.com/translating-gdpr-cookie-consent-plugin-with-wpml/](https://www.webtoffee.com/translating-gdpr-cookie-consent-plugin-with-wpml/)
 * once you find the strings in the new language, then go to WPML/Traslate taxonomies/
   and select cookies categories, you can copy the content from the category to 
   the new language from there. The problem is that when the category name is changed
   you also have to change the name of the shortcode inside the category description
   in the the new language, exm:
 * [cookie_audit category=”analytics” style=”winter” columns=”cookie,duration,description”]
 * [cookie_audit category=”xxxx” style=”winter” columns=”cookie,duration,description”]
