 * Hello,
 * I am using [cmplz-cookies] shortcode to display the list of cookies.
 * I added a language using loco. I have added some translations using loco. Some
   cannot display translated on front end using _**Loco**_ and _**Polylang string
   translation**_.
 * **Using Polylang string translation: These do not display translated:**
 * advertising
    website statistics website security Preferences Statistics providing
   social share buttons spam prevention display of recent social posts and/or social
   share buttons locale management
 * **Using Loco: These do not display translated:**
 * Functional
    Marketing/Tracking Preferences
 * Thank you

 * Hi [@pickme](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pickme/),
 * Do you mean that you don’t get to see these strings under ‘string translation’?
   Or that they are not translated out of the box?
 * These translations should be synced with cookiedatabase.org. I will check if 
   they are available there. In which language do you need the translations?
 * Kind regards,
    Leon

 * Hi!
 * My default language is Greek and secondary is english.
 * I can see all strings under string translation page. I have a Greek field and
   an English field for each option string.
 * I add the Greek translations but they cannot display on front end when displaying
   cookies’ list with shortcode [cmplz-cookies].
 * The translations I add in loco most of them are displayed on front end when displaying
   cookies’ list with shortcode [cmplz-cookies]. Some are not.
 * Do I need to translate the purpose options seen within wizard in order to display
   with shortcode [cmplz-cookies]?
 * Also shortcode [cmplz-cookies] has wrong hyperlinks for each service. Also when
   I manually add a service and add its privacy policy URL it does not correspond
   to the added service.

 * Hi [@pickme](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pickme/),
 * The Greek translations are not 100% completed both on Complianz and Cookiedatabase.
   org. However, we would be very happy if you would be willing to contribute your
   translations via [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/complianz-gdpr/](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/complianz-gdpr/).
   This way our other Greek users can benefit from your work as well!
 * Could you share your website privately under ‘the page I need help with’ and 
   point out some examples where you see a wrong URL with a service?
 * The translations of cmplz-cookies are loaded from cookiedatabase.org so that 
   is why you can’t find them under the Complianz domain.
 * Kind regards,
    Leon

 * How do I do that? Is there a support contact form in complianz website?
 * I can indeed contribute. If some translations of cmplz-cookies shortcode are 
   loaded from cookiedatabase.org how will they be able to be translated?
 * Thanks

 * [@pickme](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pickme/) just above the message
   box another field should appear: ‘the page I need help with’. You can also reach
   out to us at support(at)complianz.io.
 * The easiest way to translate the cookie descriptions is to contribute to cookiedatabase.
   org. If you reach out to us via email I can make a translator account for you.

   send you an email now.

 * For the community:
 * This issue was caused by some errors in custom (Greek) translations. When translating
   the Complianz plugin via the WordPress repository or using a translating plugin,
   you will notice some strings containing instances of ‘%s’
 * %s is used for variables or buttons, so if some of these are missing in your 
   translations this can cause unexpected behavior or (like in this example) links
   appearing in wrong places.
 * For anyone who wants to help in translating our plugin to his or her own language,
   please visit: [https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/complianz-gdpr/](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/complianz-gdpr/)
 * Any help is greatly appreciated!
 * Regards,
    The Complianz team
