    I’m using Polylang with Evolution themes (https://www.elegantthemes.com/gallery/evolution/). The plugin is very good indeed, really easy to use. Though I still have to ask for support about its front page. Evolution has two string which user can define in its panel: the big quote text and the description text under ‘Recent Work’. The theme stores these string in wordpress option table and displays it like this: `echo get_option('evolution_homework_desc');

    I managed to translate this by using pll_register_string() on the file home.php but it didn’t work:
    $homework_desc = get_option('evolution_homework_desc');
    pll_register_string('homework_desc', $homework_desc);
    echo pll__($homework_desc);

    Just don’t know why it doesn’t work. :sighed:

    The ‘pll_register_string’ function must be called on the admin side, so may have its place in functions.php, whereas the pll__ function must be called when you need it. I have to be clearer in the documentation.

    in functions.php (or any other file called on admin side):

    $homework_desc = get_option('evolution_homework_desc');
pll_register_string('homework_desc', $homework_desc);

    in your template file:

    $homework_desc = get_option('evolution_homework_desc');
echo pll__($homework_desc);

    Hope it helps!
