Yes. Speed Contact Bar is ready for i18n (translations). See the POT-filw in the folder ‘languages’.
Hi,
does this mean that Speed Contact Bar is made to translate itself, rather than allow translator plugins to translate its strings?
That does not mean “to translate itself” but to let translation plugins work with it. Which translation plugin do you use?
I am using polylang. Since Contact Bar is not a widget, I assumed its strings would appear under Settings -> Languages -> Strings translations tab, but they don’t.
For me it seems polylang does not support plugins. Please use the plugin “Loco Translate”. (It will not replace polylang.)
I do not think that we understand each other, if I am mistaken please correct me.
For example, I added quick links to pages to my website footer. This I did through Appearance -> Widgets -> Drag Pages widget to Footer section. Here I can set a title for this widget ‘Quick Links’. My website can be displayed to multiple languages, so I would like ‘Quick Links’ to be translated to other languages as well. For this reason I use polylang, which detects Title for this widget, and shows it in the Settings -> Languages -> Strings Translations tab. There I can translate ‘Quick Links’ string to all support languages by my website.
Now, when I go to Settings -> Speed Contact Bar, I have entered ‘Emergency Calls’ to Headline field value. Polylang does not detect this value, and therefore does not offer to translate it in Strings Translations tab.
How can I translate this string value to several languages?
Thank you for your detailed description. Unfortunately polylang only uses WordPress standard fields and ignores 3rd-party texts. Up til now I do not see any way to achieve what you want except a multisite installation with a subsite for each language.
