Problems with Translation of WooCommerce Order Emails with Loco Translate
-
Hi,
I am still preparing a multi-lingual store on our staging server and running into some issues with the translation of the WooCommerce Order confirmations emails with Loco Translate. I have uploaded a jpg file onto Google Drive to clarify the issue.

We have the Chinese language turned on. If a customer checks out in Chinese, we receive the email seen in the JPG above. I am currently in the process of editing the PO files and have no problem translating the standard fields such as: product, qty, price, subtotal etc. which are all strings part of the PO file.
My main problem is the product name. It seems this can not be translated using the PO file and without the English product name, the sales rep in charge or myself have no idea what the customer ordered just by looking at the email. It only becomes clear upon login to admin and within the Woocommerce – Orders section.
2 other small issues are:
– “data-trpgettextoriginal=” appearing at the beginning of the email.
– Mr. 克里斯·奥凯(Jim Beam) some chinese lettering appearing before the name and street address.
For some reason, it appears that only this very 1st order confirmation email is being sent out in the language the customer chose to checkout with. I have changed the order status several times and every single email which was sent from the store afterwards was in English. I am not really sure if this is intended like that and the default way.
If that’s really the case that only the 1st email gets sent in a different language other than English (which makes not much sense to me), I would like to change this very first order confirmation email to be sent out in English as well.
I am thinking that there must be some sorta hook or filter which will lie to the cart upon checkout that the customer is using English and not XYZ language.
Any help is highly appreciated!
Thank you very much!
Chris
