    Hi,

    This topic has been marked “Resolved” while nothing is…
    https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/wpml-translation-of-widgets-on-existing-pages/

    When will this widget be WPML compliant?
    I’ve been waiting specifically for this widget for 6 months now.
    And you’ve been releasing the 3rd update after the 3.1.0 and it’s still not fixed ??

    2nd question: how does your WPML compatibility works regarding existing pages that already includes your widgets?

    – Once the new EA release is installed, can we directly go to the translation feature? Will the new strings immediately be there? Are the missing strings created when the WPML translation page is opened?

    – Do we need to edit and save the page with EA widgets to create the strings first and then go to the page translation?

    – Will it never create the translation strings for existing pages that includes your widgets? Do we need to rebuild all our pages?

    – Or do you have an other process to be able to start translating?

    Your previous answer was too vague and even not applicable: “Well, it will work the same the way it does for the Elementor widgets.”

    It’s not applicable as it’s not the same context at all:
    – if WPML was installed first, then Elementor, then the pages created, there’s no question, the strings are created when the page is saved
    – and if Elementor was installed first, pages created, then WPML was installed, then WPML looks for missing strings during it’s installation process.

    In the case of your update it’s a different context: WPML, Elementor & pages with widgets are already created! Is it your installation/update process that will look for the missing strings and will create them? Or are they created when the translation page is opened?

    Thanks.

    @ftpwp,

    Well, sorry about the inconvenience caused. We are gradually making all our widgets WPML Compatible. So, EA Data Table should be added in one of the future updates. We are working on it. Don’t worry.

    For how WPML Works with existing pages, the process is that you simply go to the Translations page from wp-admin -> WPML -> Translations. If you update an existing page which has already been translated, you will see an option prompting ‘Need to Update’ here. You can translate the new EA Widgets which you have added in the existing pages from here. Here’s the screenshot: https://prnt.sc/of2dpu

    Let me be clear, we are not handling the process. Instead, we are just giving you the option to translate our widgets with WPML.

    For further assistance, I would suggest you to read our documentation on how to translate WPML with Essential Addons:https://essential-addons.com/elementor/docs/faq/translate-essential-addons-wpml/

    I hope this will help you out. Thanks.

    Hi,

    > We are gradually making all our widgets WPML Compatible.

    So what’s the list of widgets not WPML compliant yet?

    > So, EA Data Table should be added in one of the future updates.
    > We are working on it. Don’t worry.

    I read this answer since February.
    The WPML compliant version was supposed to be released in March.
    And mid July the widget I’m looking for is still not available with no information regarding a potential release time frame.

    All this mess, lack of accurate information, visibility and support is the reason why I’ve not renewed my subscription to EA Pro last month.

    You completely missed the point once again.
    I’m not asking for a WPML user guide. I use Elementor and WPML for a long time.

    I’m asking you if once we will have an EA version that works, once we will have installed it, will the translation entries/fields be automatically available or not, added, in the WP Admin > Pages > Page to translate > WPML page translation form?

    Or will we have to edit and save the page first to make those new fields to translate for WPML available?
    Or will we even have to remove and re-add the EA widgets to make those new fields to translate for WPML available?
    Etc.

    @ftpwp,

    Well, once you install the latest version of Essential Addons, translations for the widgets will be automatically available in the WPML Translation form for the pages where you have used EA elements. You won’t have to re-add or re-do anything. I hope that’s clear now, right?

    Regarding, most of our elements are now fully compatibility with WPML except for a few such as Data Table which will be added in the coming weeks (2 weeks at most).

    Thank you.

    Ok, thanks.

    Thanks for the time frame.

    But you could be a bit more transparent instead of hiding the list of widgets that are not compliant. You’re not helping your users & customers by misleading them, even temporarily.

    If it had straight away been written in the 3.1.0 announcement that the Data table widget was not yet WPML compliant but it will be by one month, instead of daring writing “Added : WPML support for all elements”, you would have saved those 2 public support topics!
