    My question is if I can use WPML with a Twenty Twenty Three theme?

    Is there any known compatibility issue? I have an issue with menus in the header. Original language menus work perfectly well but when I open a translated page then the translated menu show strange characters in the header. Like this: 

    nu003cspan class=u0022wpml-ls-nativeu0022 lang=u0022esu0022u003eEspa?olu003c/spanu003e ...

    I post this here because I do not know if WPML has a compatibility issue with Twenty Twenty Three and I do not receive help to solve it from WPML support. I have all content translated but my menus do not work!

    Hi @capbussat I am sorry to hear that you are having issues, however, I am afraid this is something you will need to check with plugin developers as they are more familiar with how the plugin works and its code. I checked their site and it looks like they haven’t updated the list of default themes compatible since the introduction of block themes:

    Compatible Themes as per their documentation

    I did a quick search and found a few tickets opened by other users for the TT3 theme handled by their support team, maybe you can find something similar to your case probably this one where the header isn’t being properly translated.

    Thank you very much! I was not able to find this links by myself.

    And, yes it seems this was not the first case. I thought translation would be easier but it’s not.

    Specially this link is very helpful, because even WPML support did not provide the support page for translating block themes https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-content-created-using-gutenberg-editor/translating-sites-that-use-full-site-editing/

    Solved in a few minutes. Thank you very much @thelmachido. I was stuck for a week. (Next time I will ask for help earlier!)

    The problem was that I was not aware of the translation process for a Block Theme. I chose manual translation to allow more control over translations but I missed a few points. What I missed is that templates and template parts need translation in addion to pages!

    • Modify manually all templates to make them available for translation process. I my case just added a spacer below header in all Twenty Twenty Three templates.
    • Check in Translation Management for all the templates. (menu is WPML -> Translation Mangement)
    • Check in Translation Management for all template parts as header and footer
    • Check in Translation Management for all navigation menus also (this part was done).
    • Go to Translation Queue (menu is WPML -> Translation)

    Finally I got my translated menus correctly.

    Hi @capbussat thank you for the update, I am glad you managed to solve the issue. I will mark this one as resolved ??
