    When the user have multi-able choices in the Multi Checkbox in the registration form, those strings shows in the profile page as one string and cannot be translated separately, can you please help me to find a way to split those strings and translate them individually.

    Best regards

    Hello there,

    Thank you for letting us know about this!

    You can also translate your strings directly from the backend using the WP Data Access plugin https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/wp-data-access/
    Let’s say for example that your default site’s language is English (United States) and that you want to translate a string to Spanish.
    Using WP Data Access, you will have to search for that string either in the wp_trp_dictionary_en_us_es_es table or in the wp_trp_gettext_es_es table.
    The gettext table contains all the strings related to plugins or themes, while the dictionary table contains the strings related to your site’s content.

    Here is an image of how WP Data Access looks when you search for the trp tables: https://www.cozmoslabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/wp_data_access_search_for_table.jpg

    You can never be too sure in which table a string will be, so the best practice is to search for it in both tables. Start with one table and if you are not able to find it there, search for it in the other table.
    Here is an image of how I was able to search for all strings that contain “cart” in the wp_trp_dictionary_en_us_es_es table: https://www.cozmoslabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/wp_data_access_search_for_string.jpg

    After you find the string that you want to edit, all you have to do is to edit the row and to add the translation in the Translated column. It is also important to add 2 in the Status column (0 – not translated; 1 – automatic translated; 2 – manually translated).
    Here is an image of how to do the translation: https://www.cozmoslabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/wp_data_access_translate_string.jpg
    After you have filled the Translation and Status columns, press the Submit button and the translation is going to be saved.

    In the example I gave above, I used English and Spanish, you can do the same for all languages, just make sure to replace the en_us and es_es language codes with the ones that you are using. You can find the codes for your languages by going to: Settings –> TranslatePress –> General tab https://www.cozmoslabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/general_langauge_code.jpg

    Let me know if this worked for you!

    Kind Regards,

    Thank you Emanuel for the prompt response,

    Unfortunately using the WP Data Access plugin did not fix the problem, as it did not separate the strings, it has all checkbox individual strings translated already, but when the same strings joined in multiple selection they are generated again as a whole new string which includes all selections, the only way is to translate all possible combinations of multi selections (which I was trying to avoid so hard), it’s good that they will have only one order so hundreds of possibilities are eliminated, but still am gonna have to translate tens of strings specially with check-boxes which includes more than 10 options.

    See the problem is in separating the strings which joined by default as it seems.

    Hello there,

    If the strings come by default, we can`t do anything to translate them individually.

    You should try this manually and see if this could be useful for you.

    Have a great day!
