Traveler’s Map translation with Falang

  • Hi,

    First my compliments on the plugin, very clean and one of the best and elegant map solutions I have seen. Great job!

    I have a (Enfold theme) website translated with Falang (by Stéphane Bouey) on which I want to use Traveler’s Map. In the default language it works flawlessly, but in the translated version the shortcode entered in the backend just results on the frontend in a blank page.

    I have contacted Stéphane about this and he said that he will take a look, and also that you can contact him directly in French/English if you need to. His site is https://www.faboba.com, the plugin is https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/falang/.

    I have a development copy of the site if you need to access the example. If you need access to the dev site, let me know how I can get the details to you in private.

    Thanks for the plugin and for your help, much appreciated.

    Rob

    Dear Rob,

    I tried to install Falang on my development site.

    I am sorry to say, but I can’t even translate a page, I see errors everywhere (front-end and back-end) because I have ‘WP_DEBUG’ set to true.
    I am using the default wordpress theme.
    Even without Travelers map shortcode, I can’t find a way to make it work and translate a single page. It seems that my translations are not even saved.

    I am developing Travelers Map on my spare time (which I don’t have at the moment) for free. I am afraid I can’t support all translation plugins compatibility. Moreover, Falang has only 40+ active install yet, so that would not be useful to many people.

    However    , Travelers’ Map is compatible with WPML (premium) and Polylang (free or premium), two major multilingual plugins, I suggest you try one of those ??

    Kind regards,
    Camille

    Oh and be careful,

    I uninstalled Falang and it broke all my images. All my markers are now erased, so there is an error now with my shortcode.

    I had to re-install everything and set my markers again with new markers images.

    Hi Camille,

    Thank you for taking a look. The errors you see are strange, because I have Falang installed well without errors on many dev sites (also with debug enabled) and two live sites, with many themes, including standard WP themes. (WP 5.5.1)

    Could this be due to PHP versions or Enable jQuery Migrate Helper missing? (I have tried with PHP 7.3 and 7.4 without errors).

    Falang will help many people coming from qTranslate and qTranslateX (discontinued), but I understand your approach.

    I will let you know if Stéphane comes up with the answer and solution.

    Hi,

    Sorry for the troubles you had with the images and markers. Did you have Polylang installed before on that site? That can break the Falang behaviour. There should be a warning about that when installing Falang about having to erase old Polylang data first before installing Falang.

    Rob
