 * Hello everyone
 * I am having a weird issue with languages in the give forms. I am using two different
   forms (one in english one in german). So far so good. In german when opening 
   the form everything is in german until I change the payment method using the 
   radio button then parts of the form appear in english. From that moment these
   fields remain in english even when switching back and forth.. anyone havig a 
   clue?
    Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks. Pascal

 * What plugin are you using to implement the multi-language support? And what approach
   do you take with that plugin exactly? Are you creating multiple Give forms?
 * For example, some multi-lingual plugins have you create multiple forms but ALSO
   generate PO/MO files for the additional languages. That’s what you’d need to 
   do in order for the language to be reflected correctly.
 * When the gateway switches it loads the new fields dynamically over AJAX, so WordPress
   needs to be able to load that language PO translation file in order to show them
   correctly.
 * Hope that helps!

 * Hi Matt
 * Thanks a lot for your reply! I am working with WMPL for translating the site.
   And to make sure I have the form content in two languages I have two give forms(
   one in english one in german). German reflects correctly as long as I don’t switch
   gateways… since it loads the correct language at first I do not understand why
   it changes languages when switching gateways (I’m not a programmer unfortunately)..
   so what would your approach be to solve that issue?
 * Thank you very much for the support!

 * Hi again Matt
 * After digging deeper the solution was pretty simple: In WPML there is an option
   called “Language filtering for AJAX operations” that uses a cookie to store the
   language info.. that did the trick.. so one step closer! Thanks for your help!

 * Awesome, thanks for the update. I’ll keep that in mind.
 * I’m working on a few docs for Give and Multi-language support and that will be
   important for the WPML doc.
 * If you’re enjoying Give and appreciate our support, we’d love a kind review from
   you here:

 * Hi there,
 * I am having the same issue but as I am using WPGLobus (instead of WMPL) I haven’t
   been able to check on the Ajax option.
 * The page is this one: [http://restartersbcn.info/donar/](http://restartersbcn.info/donar/)
   
   The website’s language is set to Spanish, but not even then the form text appears
   different than English.
 * Any thoughts?
 * Thanks!!
 * Cristina.
