    Hi,
    I use WooCommerce and qTranslate in my photo site https://phototrope.ca (Twenty Twelve Child) . Everything works fine, except in the Shop …

    I created three categories of products in French:
    ? Nature – Couleur
    ? Nature – Noir et blanc
    ? Europe

    Each class has two attributes:
    ? Format (3 sizes available)
    ? Présentation (cadre noir, cadre argent, ou non encadrée)

    This gives 9 price variations for each photo.

    I duplicated everything and translated into English.

    To build my catalogue, I first created a product in French (with the same title in English), which I then duplicated as many times as necessary by changing only the title and the featured image. This saved me from specifying 9 price variations for each photo.

    I have done the same in English.

    The problem is when I switch language. For each product qTranslate correctly translates “Veuillez choisir une option” to “Choose an option” (drop-down menus facing the two attributes), but it fails to translate the rest (eg Format > Size, Cadre noir > Black frame, etc.).

    Should I create Language Tags to eliminate all English price variations? I feel this too many variations screws up qTranslate or WooCommerce.

    In other words should there be only 9 price variations in French? Language Tags would then take over to generate the English variations.

    But I do not know how to achieve this…

    Moreover, the Boutique (Shop) page itself is unable to manage the categories since it displays all 6 at once, instead of 3 in French or English as it should. So I deleted the English categories in the general settings (not in the price variations themselves). I ended up, as desired, with 3 categories in the Shop page, but obviously they are only in French.

    Also the English submenus are not displayed in English despite the fact they are properly labeled in Appearance/Menu. They are OK only in the Portfolio tab.

    In short, hours of fun trying, unsuccessfully, to sort it out.

    Thank you for your help!
