WPML String Translations conflict with Newspaper Translations

Hello Guys,

I used your translations (Theme control > Translations) and they worked great, however, you guys have not provided an option for theme strings to switch back to English on simple click from user front-end. If the Newspaper had this feature, I would be 60% satisfied with my translation needs (I do not care to translate content language, only menus and strings).

Anyway, so I had to go with dreadful WPML ($195 full version)……………………… :-/ (your fault!) … 🙂

Well, WPML has a String Translation option which picks up all of your Theme’s strings and I translated those while wiping up the ones in your theme control panel. This resulted in nothing. Your theme strings override what I input into WPML String Translation…

So, how can I fix this?? I am not so technical, but I have a guy who works for me, and hopefully your answer will mean much more to him than me. Or hopefully it is so simple and so detailed an answer that I can fix it myself.

Also, WHY can’t you just add an option for Theme strings to go back to English if end-user (site visitors) wants them? … It would not alleviate my other plugins on the site, but it would be a great start!! You guys could render WPML useless for users like me (and those guys are only 1/10th the programmers you guys are).

Hoping for replies…

(also hoping Chris S. is a freelancer whom I could hire in the future…haha)

Hi,

We use a custom function for translations – http://screencast.com/t/yuNAwmkg – i suspect wpml requires something else, you could search for it in the theme and replace it with wpml required function – http://screencast.com/t/3zbHIZdj – or modify the function itself.

Thank you, Emil G.
