Overview of the issue

When using Motors theme, you may experience that some listing category labels are not appearing translated on the front end, despite being translated within the WPML String Translation interface.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full site backup of your site before proceeding.


  • Open the app/public/wp-content/plugins/motors-elementor-widgets/templates/widgets/single-listing/listing-data.php file

  • Look for line 91.

  • Replace: 
    <td class="t-label"> <?php echo esc_html( $single_name ); ?></td>

  • With: 
    <?php
	// WPML Workaround for compsupp-7432
	if ( class_exists('Sitepress') ) {
		$textdomain = 'motors';
		$string_name = 'Motors - WPML String: '.substr($single_name, 0, 20);

		if ( apply_filters('wpml_default_language', NULL ) == apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL )) {
			do_action( 'wpml_register_single_string', $textdomain, $string_name, $single_name );
		}	
		// Apply the translation to the string
		$single_name = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $single_name , $textdomain, $string_name);
	}
?>

<td class="t-label"> <?php echo esc_html( $single_name ); ?></td>
  • Visit the page with the issue in the original language, this will register the string.
  • Go to WPML > String Translation page and translate the new string (under motors textdomain).
