    Also, the WPML option of including a language switcher menu in a WP menu does not seem to be supported in the menu selected for the Responsive Menu.

    Hi there,

    Do you have documentation to the WPML Language Switcher option as this is not something I have heard of before.

    To switch the menu you just need to use the menu_to_use option and select a different menu.

    In regards additional content this is not currently supported in our WPML integration but I will get it added for you.

    All the best

    Hey there,

    Ive added Additional Content as an WPML option to the beta now if you would like to download and test it.

    Hi, I actually managed to work around the issue by using a custom menu with additional CSS to style the secondary links I had put in the additional content previously, and I used a php shortcode (via Post Snippets) for the language switcher menu only in the additional content, which seems to self-translate.

    The “Displaying a language switcher in the menu” option is described on this page near the bottom: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-switcher-options/

    This page describes it’s limitations a bit more:

    Hey there,

    Having read through those pages (thanks for those by the way), I think it would be difficult for my plugin to integrate with that WPML feature properly.

    Currently the best way to do this is to select a different “menu_to_use” translation for a menu in another language and the same for the menu title, additional content and button title. Using a combo of these four you can fully translate the menu in different languages.

    Alternatively you can use the shortcode with a php if statement dependent upon the locale to dynamically translate the text.

    I hope that will suffice and if you need any further help please dont hesitate to let me know.

    All the best
