Elementor Multi Language website - Using Polylang and Elementor

[@Tommaso_Tortato]

Hi great video tutorial! But i have a problem, i have elementor Pro and Polylang pro, with the Connect Polylang for Elementor plugin activated the templete elementor editor will not load, i have tried deactivating other plugins, it seems that only Connect Polylang for Elementor cause the issue, did it happen to you with the latest version? i have also rolledback to previous versions of the plugins but nothing fix the problem, maybe you are able to suggest another solutions to translate the templates (header for my case) and assign them to the right language? sorry for the long question and thank you in advance if you reply me

[@DEBUGENTITY]

hey can i make different header for every language like i want to change menu title language to..& will it support language change for ACF Custom post types??

[@kevinsudira5533]

Thanks man, exactly what i was searching for. You're great !

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 I am so happy to hear that this is what you were searching for! Thank you for your kind word, I really appreciate it! See you in the next video 🤩

How did you get your Translated French page to be also a front page? that tag of front page (2:17) doesn't appear on my translated page and the flag icon on my menu doesn't redirect to the new HOME page that i translated.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 I see what you mean, did you went through the setup wizard of Polylang? If yes, then the other option is to configure the page from the Wordpress Editor through the sidebar. It terms of the Flags that does not appear in the pages table, I would check if they are hidden for any reason by going to the 'Screen Options' on the top left hand corner of the page (while you are still in the pages) and try to see if they are disabled. Would love to hear if that helped your case! 🙏

[@matinsalamat4678]

thanks for your helpful video! my problem is when I click on edit with elementor 3:29 I get the "The content area has not been found on your page error" how can I solve it?

[@MuhammadBilal-wpcoder]

You need to add both plugins brother! check the video again

[@Luxury-Travel-Switzerland]

Thanks for your helpful tutorial. I have a question corncerning translations of Plugins: I am using Polylang free version. In the Polylang translation, the plugin "WP-KZbin Lyte" is not included with the consequence that German language is shown on English pages. It seems to be that Polylang free version does not support the plugin "WP-KZbin Lyte". Question: Does the Pro Version of Polylang support the translation? Or is there another way how I can translate the plugin "WP-KZbin Lyte"?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! :) First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to write your comment. To answer your question, I have just tried to install the plugin you mentioned the - WP-KZbin Lyte with and without the Polylang Pro (with the plugin that I have mentioned in this video TTfP) and I got 5 pages of translatable fields. Did you get the same? Have you tried to translate it only using the Loco Plugin?

[@techsaifulbd]

very helpful and professional tutorial.

Good evening, I have created a News page with the layout designer. This page shows me the news and depending on the language I choose, it shows me only those of that language, but how can I have different templates for each language. For example in Spanish I want it to put News but in another language I don't want it to put news if not the word in that language, but in the conditions if I don't choose that page to be a post it stops working for the blog, for the header and footer Of the page, I have been able to tell you that it depends on the author to show me one or the other and I have created each translation with a different author but I can't get the news.

[@eleniminadaki6781]

Thank you for this helpful video, I am facing a problem with polylang, the menu cart, checkout page and cart page appears into my first language while I am using the second language, is this something can be solved by switching to pro version? Thank you for any suggestions.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 First of all thank you for taking the time to write your comment and for your kind words! 🙏 The answer is yes, this problem is solved when you upgrade to the Pro Version. This happened to me also in one of my projects and once I have upgraded to the Pro Version - it solved it. I hope I was able to help you with this issue.

[@eleniminadaki6781]

@@ezwp4uThank you for your help!

[@vayvon21]

How can I change false associated translations? For example, I have a "Contact Us" page and I added a "False" page. I want to change to "Contattaci" page.

[@vayvon21]

I have found it! It can be done in the wordpress' editor.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 Well done on finding it and solving that!

[@TwoHands95]

Hey, just one question, is there an easy way to copy the design from the original language into the translated language?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 For sure! As far as I know, you can open the inspector (while editing with Elementor) and then selecting all the containers on the page using the CTRL or COMMAND (if you are on Mac) together with the mouse. After you have selected all the containers click the left key on your mouse to open the options and that just copy and past the design onto the next page that you want. That should solve that ✌🏼 Would love to hear if that helped in your case 🙏

[@corinagrether]

Hello. Thank you so much for the tutorial. Although i'm a bit confused. I am structuring a blog page with Elementor Pro and i've installed Polylang/Connect Polylang for Elem. and the language plugin to choose the right URL. Are the Loco Translate and TTfp settings really necessary? Site will be only in italian and english. Thx

[@mistermotioner3928]

can you guide me, i have choosed danish language as default and there are two home pages, one for danish and other for english. when i click on danish flag, it take me to danish site but when i click on english flag, it take me english site but it only shows top menu of english version and not home page. when i click home tab of english version, then it take me to home page of english version. Any solution for it that english flag take me directly to home page ?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 It seems (if I have understood you correctly), that the Home page is not setted up in the English Version correctly on the back-end. If that is the case, then you would need to make sure (when you edit the Home page with the WordPress editor) that on the right sidebar, the Home pages are linked between them, inside the Polylang settings. You would need to see (inside the Polylang settings box) that the other language is displaying accordingly to the flag next to it, as well as the name of the page. I really hope I was able to help! 🙏 If not, please don't hesitate to write another comment on the matter, that would explain a little more, the issue you are facing and I'll try to do my best to assist you with it. 💫

[@DesignerWisdom]

Do you know how this would handle sitemaps? Would you have to manually create one for each language?

[@productanalysisonline5452]

What about if you have translated a page already before you installed Polylang and you want to just reference the other language page?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 As far as I know, you have the option to configure that inside the page you want when you edit it not with Elementor but with the usual editor that comes with WordPress. Let me know if that helped. 🙏

[@davidmcnickel9933]

Great help! Thanks for posting!

[@ezwp4u]

Hey David! You're very welcome! I am happy to hear that this video helped you 🤩 See you in the next video ✌

[@bravenewcoin]

@@ezwp4u Hey - quick question. Am I right in thinking that Polylang provides the tools and framework etc for translated versions of one's website, but it doesn't actually do the translation work - meaning we'd have to translate everything ourselves (which is fine, just wanted to be sure I understand).

[@alexzhao7849]

Thanks！ Could you pls tell me how to translate the elementor template with polylang? Thank you so much.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 You're very welcome! Absolutely, first of all, make sure you have Polylang and Connect Polylang for Elementor on your website. After you have set up your site with Polylang, you simply go to the templates on your website and edit them. Make sure that the Primary Language Templates do display on your website - in the main language of your website - and the display condition is been activated for the template that you choose. In other words, that the Main Language of your website, has it's own templates and they do display on your website. After you've edited the template that you wanted, with Elementor, you would want to exit the template and head over to your saved templates. Once, you are there, you would see (just like in the Pages on your website) the Flags column appearing on the template that you were editing. Now, simply click on the Plus icon in the Flags column to add and edit the template in the language that you desire, name your template and publish or edit it in the new language that you've chosen. 🙂 I hope I was able to explain it clearly - anyhow, I am planning to make a video on it on the channel, so stay tuned ✌🏼

[@Macken308]

Nice guide and video, good work. Just a word of caution though, all of these plugins make your website vulnerable. Remember that.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 Thank you very much! I really appreciate your kind word, it means a lot to me! 🙏 I agree, that is why I make sure not to bloat the websites I build with a Plugin for every Little thing. I make sure that I have a good hosting company that has a great Firewall on the server and I add Security Plugins to secure the website even more with 2FA. See you in the next one! 🙂✌🏼

[@CarsSupercars]

What about the widget footers? If you have 100 items in the English one and you want to create a new one for French version?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 What do you mean by that mate? Could you clarify it a bit more for me? I would be really happy to hear from you on the matter and to make a video on the channel explaining the answer ✌

[@CodingwithAi-r1o]

i checked your video but i am a bit confused. do you mean we need to recreate the pages for the other languages? also the slugs will be translated automatically? I hope it creates the pages automatically with the translation off course.

[@dominmax]

I'am afraid that translating images (e.g. alt) does not work. When you open an image there is a language switcher but when you edit one language it overwrites the other languages... :/

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 As far as I seen, there is an option to do that, try following this Doc. - polylang.pro/doc/working-with-media/ I'll be happy to hear if that helped you or solved the problem 🙏

[@jacopopapicom]

Thanks! And how can I translate the pages: "You searched for..." or "Category: ...."?

[@ialwaystakebaddecision3495]

i think you need the plugin polylan for woocommerce to do anything related to your store but it's not free

[@aba5219]

Are you using the free version? My home page is not translated It says it must be static page But it is not, it shows latest posts Do you have a solution for this?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! Thank you for reaching out! It seems like your home page is set as the Archive or blog page of the website - am I correct?🤔

[@MultiYouhou]

hello, i don't understand why my elementor has issue when i try to switch into french page ? It say" Can't Edit? Enable Safe Mode Having problems loading Elementor? Please enable Safe Mode to troubleshoot. Learn More" If you can help that would be greate because of that i can't follow the tutorial

[@ezwp4u]

Hey mate! I see what you mean, usually what I found to be the problem is some plugin that creates the problem. I know it is a very common answer but I would check that first. If that is not the problem, I would check if the cache plugin is enabled or interferes with Elementor for some reason and try to tweak or even better to deactivate it completely - I never activate the Cache Plugin when I am building websites, only when I am done building it I would activate it. Also, one more option you can try is to copy all the elements to a new Page/ Template and try to edit it there. Let me know if that helps!✌

[@iribagnis]

I had the same problem! My SEO plugin was causing it, I deactivated it and I was able to edit the page properly :) Hope this helps!

yeah thanks ! :) @@iribagnis

[@iriswang5581]

Thank you so much for sharing this video! It has been incrediblely helpful. When I click the language icon, it automatically leads to the front page of the new language. Is there a way that I can have it the link to the same page but just in a different language?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 I am so happy to hear this video was incredibly helpful to you! 🤩 As far as I know, it should work correctly... What page are you trying to switch from or to? 🤔

[@iriswang5581]

No worries... I realize I need to click the language icon to multiply the page otherwise it will return to the home page@@ezwp4u

[@GnuLegax]

Thank you, Nice Tutorial!

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 Your very welcome! I am really happy to hear you like this tutorial! See you in the next video 🤩

[@happytherapist1157]

Hi , i understand the process but in your tutorial, nothing was ever translated into French for real...all is still in English . How do you explain it ?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 You are completely right. The reason for it, is that I currently don't know French and it was for Demo purposes. But the best part (in my opinion), is that you can translate it and edit it, the way you want in every language. I hope that answered your question. 💫

[@opencartCloud]

Great video. Have you ever thought about creating a video about installing Opencart using Softaculous?

[@Headcase0570]

Damn, I was hoping Polylang would just translate pages as-is, or at the very least duplicate the translated pages by itself. Having to redo all the pages for several languages is a pain in the butt!

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 :I see what you are saying, I think (as most things in life) there are two ways to look at it. Yes, it might be frustrating to translate it by yourself but if to look at it from another perspective then, it gives you a lot of flexibility to change and edit the way YOU want. Which I think is awesome. Yes, you have to do a little bit of work, but the flexibility it gives you is just great! Again, it is my personal opinion on the matter. If you want, I would recommend you to use the WPML Plugin and purchase their credits but then you trade money for that extra translation. I really hope that helps. See you in the next one! 🙂✌🏼

[@rogerdelbarco]

Thanks for the video! Very helpful. How to translate the menu?

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 I am really happy to hear the video was very helpful to you mate! If I have understood your question correctly you would need to create a separate menu and a separate Header and combine between the two. Then when the user will switch between the languages he will see the outer menu in the outer language that you have set. I really hope I was able to answer your question. If not, feel free to write me and I will make a video on the matter. ✌

[@עידואלנברג]

First of all, thank you so much for the video; it was excellent. I have two points that I would appreciate some clarification on: 1. Header and footer - It seems that switching between different languages doesn’t affect them. How can I set their language according to the selected language on the website? 2. When I choose a different language (not the default one), it correctly displays the page in the relevant language, which is great. However, when I navigate to another page, it automatically switches back to the default language, even though I want to continue reading in the second language I selected. How can I configure it so that when a visitor selects a specific language, it remains consistent throughout their entire browsing session on the website, not just on the current page? Thank you very much.

[@ezwp4u]

Hey! 🙂 First of all thank you so much for your warm word and taking the time to write your comment on my video, I highly appreciate it! 🙏 To answer your questions, I think there is more then just one solution but I'll try to help as much as I can from what you wrote. 1. Header and Footer - Here, I must ask if you have setted up the menus on the back-end depending on the language? When you go to Appearance -> Menus and set up a different menu for each language. Then create a different template for the language that you need from the Templates in Elementor and when you are done, don't assign it a view condition on the website, just make sure that in the back-end (the WordPress editor, on the right or left sidebar) you see that the main Header of your website and the other language that you've created, are connected. 2. I think if you'll do the first step that I have wrote, that would solve it. In case it didn't, comment again with the whole scene/ set up that you have setted up in Elementor and would be more than happy to help! 💫
