Hello
I have a problem with translations for multilanguage site.
I have followed the tutorial to configure the multilanguage site, I have installed all the add-ons indicated in the tutorial.

But I can not translate the strings of the field groups and the custom fields I'm creating. I'm stuck at this point.
Can you check if something is missing? or if you have another tutorial ..
Thank you

Hi,

I have checked the URL you mentioned above, but get the error:
ERR_TIMED_OUT

Please check it .

And here is a document about "Translating Repeatable Field Groups":
https://toolset.com/documentation/translating-sites-built-with-toolset/translating-repeatable-field-groups/#2-set-the-translation-options-for-the-groups-fields

For your reference.

This does not solve anything, these tutorial options were already selected, the option to translate the strings of the custom form fields still does not appear

[Luo Yang]

Please check these:
1) Make sure you are using the latest version of Toolset plugins and WPML plugins

2) In case it is a compatibility problem, please deactivate other plugins, and switch to wordpress default theme 2019, and test again

3) If the problem still persists, please provide a copy of your website, also point out the problem page URL, and where and how can I see the problem custom form fields, I need to test and debug it in my localhost, thanks

Luo passed this ticket to me as he was having issues accessing your site. This is Minesh here and I'll take care of this ticket. Hope this is OK.

I'm able to access your site. Could you please share which custom fields you want to translate and it's not working? To which custom field group they belong?

[hectorM-2]

I can not translate any field, I have to translate all fields of all groups, but I can not translate them.

I have followed all the tutorials and I can not find the way to translate them.

Well - on your install, I logged in and when I visited the custom fields at the following link:
=> hidden link

I see most of the fields assigned to post type "Vehiculo" and there is only one post and I do not see any Repeating Fields Groups assigned to any custom field group as Luo shared information here:
=> https://toolset.com/forums/topic/problems-with-als-wpml-translations/#post-1169356

I see most of your fields are select fields and to translate the text of the select field you need to follow the following steps:
=> Navigate to: WPML-> String translation
-- Select strings within the domain: plugin Types (xx)
-- and search the option's "Display text", and translate it to what you want and click on the button to save it.
-- Please check following screenshot: hidden link

=> Display it a custom select field with Types shortcode:
For example:

[types field="my-select-field-slug"][/types]

More info:
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/customizing-sites-using-php/functions/#select

It will be able to display the translated text in different languages version.

In addition to this, we have known bug related to field type Checkboxes and its report to our Devs.

Please let me know if you need help further help.
