Overview of the issue

When using Woodmart with WPML, you might experience that the swatch style option for product attributes is not copied to translated products. As a result, attributes may display differently between languages, such as showing as a dropdown in the default language and inline in the translation.

Workaround


  • Go to WPML > Settings > Custom XML Configuration in your WordPress dashboard.

  • Add the following XML configuration and save: 
     
<wpml-config>
    <custom-fields>
        <custom-field action="copy" label="Swatches Attribute">_woodmart_swatches_attribute</custom-field>
    </custom-fields>
    <custom-term-fields>
        <custom-term-field action="copy" label="Swatches Dropdown">not_dropdown</custom-term-field>
    </custom-term-fields>
</wpml-config>
