Hi,
I am on the process of translating the listing submission page mysite/add-listing/?listing_type=gd_place. I use Loco Translate plugin which makes it easy by automatically editing and updating .mo and .po language files, but there’s something I don’t unsderstand: some terms won’t translate on the page, whereas they are translated in the language files.
For instance:
“Please enter latitude for google map perfection. eg. : 39.955823048131286”
“Please enter longitude for google map perfection. eg. : -75.14408111572266”
“Phone”
“Place title”
And many others.
How can I translate this terms? What am I missing?

You may be looking at the field description or label.

Try changing the values in the custom fields themselves.

For the ones that are strings, yes, they should be in the core PO file. Try POedit (definitively reliable) for editing PO files to see if that works. We provide support for PO file or WPML translation.

Hi Alex, thanks for the quick reply. The problem is I did not find the page(s) ou file(s) that contain field description or label. Nor I can find any custom field. Were can I find it?

Hi Erdu,

Thanks for your reply. I’ve able to locate the strings in the core language file as shown in the attached image. Could you check again?

Thank you, same for me, the problem is strings are translated in the core file but not on the site, as you can see there https://www.chargeadestination.com/add-listing/?listing_type=gd_place

You should be able to find those strings in the core plugin language files or the location manager.

Please see this doc:
https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs-v2/translation/overview/

If you still have a problem please open a new topic so we can help you.

Always open a new topic.
