'Edit Category' and 'Categories' column in posts list are not translated

  • Hello,

    I just noticed that when you go to ‘Categories’ and then try to edit one, there is no language switcher and if you put lang tags ([:en]…) in fields, they appear in the ‘edit post’ pages (in the ‘categories’ box).

    Also when you look at the posts list, lang tags ([:en][:fr][:]…) appear instead of the translated string in the column ‘Categories’.

    Tested with WordPress 4.5 and Qtranslate X 3.4.6.4, no other plugins activated, and with Twenty Sixteen 1.2 theme.

    Best,

  • I have exactly the same problem. Custom theme with custom post type Portfolio and Categories column is not translated: it shows [:en]Advertising[:lt]Reklama[:]

    Also I spotted a moment when I update post using quick edit mode and hit update it translates Categories in that line correctly, but then the Post name is not translated after page refresh again Post name is trasnlated and Categories column is not translated…

    It’s fixed in Qtranlate X v3.4.6.6
    Thanks !

    I am using v3.4.6.6 but result is the same. It is not fixed or there is something else. In default post it is OK but in custom post type it is still not translated.

    My bad, I do not have custom posts, I couldn’t have checked.

    @vytas M.: What kind of custom post do you mean? Could you give specific steps to reproduce starting from freshly installed WP with standard theme and no other plugins?

    @john Clause: My client is using WPZOOM Inspiro premium theme it has portfolio section that is made using custom post type. I will check what code they use for creating portfolio custom post type. And will check with that code on clean WP installation. In all other places translations work good like in Portfolio category creation window also everything works in Portfolio post edit page. It only does not work when I go to Portfolio list with all posts…

    I will check with clean installation and will report here.

    OK I am back. It is not working for me even with clean isntallation. This is how I have reproduced it:

    1. Installed clean WP no localization used.
    2. Deleted all plugins
    3. Installed qTranslate X v3.4.6.6 and activated
    4. Opened configuration. did not touched any other configuration parameters and went to languages tab. There was two languages activated English and German. Default language was English.
    5. I disabled German language and as I require Lithuanian added it to the list with these parameters: [Language Code: lt], [Flag: lt.png], [Name (in native alphabet): Lietuvi?], [Locale: lt_LT], [Locale at front-end): /empty/], [Date Format: %Y.%m.%d], [Time Format: %H:%M], [Not Available Message: Atsipra?ome, ?is puslapis galimas tik %LANG:, : ir %.]
    6. Now opened posts. In the list there is only one post in the table “Hello world!”. Categories column shows “Uncategorized”
    7. Now I went to Categories list and when I switch between languages I see same text “Uncategorized”. Now I edited that category and for Lithuanian language I set category name to “Be kategorijos” and saved
    8. Went back to post list and in the Categories column I see text “[:en]Uncategorized[:lt]Be kategorijos[:]“

      9. The end. ?? Can You reproduce to?

    One more note that I think is quite interesting.

    Now I have edited Category name to be the same for both languages “Uncategorized” and saved. Now in the post list Categories column I see category name correctly “Uncategorized”.

    It seems like it shows wrong translation when text is different in category name fields for different language.

    Thank you, @vytas M., for so clear reproducing steps. I can only wish that everyone would be that well organized on reporting the issues. I also added Lietuvi? language to the list of predefined languages as you specified. If you wish to translate the plugin, read https://qtranslatexteam.wordpress.com/translators/.

    The issue will be fixed in the next release.
