Translation with Polylang?

  • Hi,

    I’m a total newbie to the world of wordpress, but was asked to create a new website for the hotel of a friend. I have build the website using the Astra Theme. Since the free version did not provide the homepage banner options I was looking for, I added the “Home Page Banner for Astra Theme” plugin (LINK). I use an image for the banner, and combined it with the plugin-provided text options (Content > Banner Heading and Sub Heading).

    So far, so good. The website is basically ready, but before going online I need to translate the whole thing (German > English). That’s where my troubles started. I just can’t seem to figure out how I can translate the Banner Heading and Sub Heading sections. They are not automatically added to the strings translations, and I’m too inexperienced to add them myself without someone telling me exactly what to do. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find an explanation anywhere. I tried to add the pll_register_string in the Astra theme functions.php (following this thread), but that just crashed the whole website.

    Could someone provide guidance or an explanation? Your help would be greatly appreciated!

    BTW, I’m working locally using a wamp hosted localhost if that makes any difference..

    Hi @rauchi03,

    Unfortunately, as of now it is not possible to translate the strings that come from the plugin. I am really sorry for the inconvenience you may have because of this.

    As a workaround, you might want to create the banner section of the homepage manually using the Gutenberg editor or a page builder plugin like Elementor then you can translate it.

    Kind regards,
    Herman ??
