    Hello,

    I have installed Polylang plugin and translated all my posts and pages but somehow the posts in the homepage top widget area of my theme (under the big slider image) don’t change the language.
    Posts from the big slider and all pages work ok.
    When I choose English language I have my menu, slider posts and footer in English but the widgets (under slider) stay in Polish even though I have translated them to English.
    Any thoughts team?

    Hi
    For all widgets you have the possibility to choose to display it for all languages (default) or only one language.
    See, 5-CREATING WIDGETS: http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/polylang/doc/polylang-getting-started.pdf

    Does it work?

    Hi Chrysti,

    I’m confused.
    The display option is set to “all languages”. If I set it to English or Polish only, the widget just disappears from my Polish or English page. That doesn’t solve my problem of having it in 2 languages.
    I want to have the widget in English on English page and in Polish on Polish page.

    Any ideas?

    cheers

    Do you mean that if you set a widget in Polish, it won’t be displayed on the Polish page?

    If I set it for Polish it displays on a Polish page and nothing is displayed on the English page (empty area).
    If I set English language – nothing is displayed on the Polish page (empty area) and on the English page the widget displays but in Polish language.

    You need you create 2 widgets, one for Polish and one for English.

    I have a website running on customizr theme and English and Polish and German translation. Polish translation runs under a different domain. I do not know why but in Polish translation social media icons are not showing anymore. Everything else looks to work fine but not these few images.

    Right now I am trying to figure out if it’s a theme problem or polylang problem.

    These social media icons are a part of the widget within customizr theme.

    Hi Chysti,

    Creating widgets for Polish and English messed up my layout.
    I have 3 widgets in the Homepage Top widget area (all together 6 just 3 for pl and 3 for en)
    Now it looks like if I had 4 widgets. There is an empty area on English and Polish.

    I thought that if I translate my posts the plugin will automatically choose the English language post for the widget otherwise what was the point of translating the post…

    I’ll be grateful for any tips about the layout mess.
