    Hi, I’m trying to translate the strings for the form of sitewide protection “Password:” and “Please enter the correct password!” with Locotranslate but it does not seem to work. However, when I translate the “Settings” string from the WP menu then it is working, but these other specific strings are not working.

    Also, in the backend editor > customizer > PPWP Sitewide Login Form > I’m able to translate the button text and add a placeholder to the password field but there is no option to translate the other strings. Why not?

    Hello @webvd,

    Thank you for contacting our support!

    If you can’t find a string or translation strings does not show as expected, please re-upload and sync the source file as steps below:

    Step 1: Download our password-protect-page.pot file and replace the existing one under /wp-content/plugins/password-protect-page/languages folder. Alternatively, update our plugin to the latest version to get the latest .pot file.

    Step 2: Go to the translation editor page and click on “Sync” button to update the source file.

    Let us know if that does not help. Please drop us an email at support(at)wpfolio.com for faster and more customized responses from our team.

    Hello @webvd,

    Thank you for your response. We noticed that you reached out earlier this year for the same issue. Have you already followed the steps that were provided to you?

    If not, you can try this.

    Step 1: Navigate to Plugins > Plugin File Editor > PPWP Smart Restriction under your admin dashboard.

    Here, go to includes > views > manage-files and open view-login-form.php file.

    Step 2: Adjust password form labels.

    You can adjust the “Password:” “Please enter the correct password!” with your preferred language

    Step 3: Press “Update File” once you’re done.

    Let us know if it works for you.

    And it is not in there, it is in: password-protect-page/includes/views/entire-site/view-ppw-form-password.php

    It solved my problem to edit core files but I dont think it is the right solution cause when the plugin gets updated I need to make the changes again.

    Hello @webvd,

    Thank you for letting us know. At the moment, we haven’t supported translation for forms created by the Smart Restriction extension yet. 

    So, you will need to use that solution but we can check with our dev team if there’s another workaround. You may drop us an email at support(at)wpfolio.com
