Hi Steven, further to previous, I followed some advice from a fellow poster, found here:

https://connections-pro.com/support/topic/compatible-with-wpml/#post-333557

I can confirm that this solution, whilst a not particularly elegant workaround, does indeed work great. However, as they have stated, it only works on the Bio & Info fields which are full tinymce text fields (possibly not the correct description)

It doesn’t work on any other field, ie job title. the shortcode gets rendered out as text.

If there were a way to just make the “TITLE” field in Connections compatible with shortcode entry, it would satisfactorily fix our challenge.

Any thoughts on this? Thanks and best wishes.

Hi Steven,

I spoke with the WPML developers. Their reply was:

=====

Hi Greg, he will need to work directly with our developers to get these answers. To do that, he should join our Go Global Program (https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/go-global-program/).

Feel free to forward this to him and have him fill out that form so we can start working together. Once this form is filled out, our developers will get in touch and then they can answer his questions.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance and I will be happy to help.

=====

Does this sound like something you are able to do soon? Or are you already any closer to WPML compatibility?

It would be great to get your plugin working with WPML, it seems a real shame because I can see people (myself included) have been asking about it for 3 years, looking at support queries for “WPML” back to 2014…

Thanks and best wishes,

Greg

Hi Steven,

I hope all is good. This thread got lost for a while, but I’m keen to pick it up with you and WPML

In response to the above, WPML said:

“Let Steven know he could create a manual xml file with the set strings names which would force WPML to register them in the String Translation table. Then he would have to program the translation to force them to use his own domain.

The best way to get in touch with our developers to make this plugin compatible is to join our Go Global Program (https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/go-global-program/). Feel free to forward this to him and have him fill out that form so we can start working together.”

Does that seem do-able?

Thanks, all the best

Thanks Steven,

I will relay this to them and let you know what they come back with,

Hi Steve,

I believe my support ticket may have been missed as I see many others have been answered in the meantime.

Please could you give it some attention? I have spoken with WPML about the issue too, they find some strange behaviour from Connections custom post type/

Here is the thread:

Thank you

Hi Steven,

That’s really odd.

Regardless, the latest updates have fixed the problem. I can edit templates and import template settings!

Thanks for your work on the updates.

By the way, when logged in to my profile, there seems no way to find my support tickets?

Thanks

Hi Steven,

Yup, made sure all the settings were matched up, Got the same error

Warning: array_key_exists(): The first argument should be either a string or an integer in /home/cpmr/public_html/wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/settings/class.settings.php on line 1806
“Settings have been imported.”

Furthermore, in trying to manually customise the template settings in the sub sites, the standard WordPress customiser opens, but does not load your plugin – it just stops at the Loading screen; the Connections cannot be seen. (screenshot attached)

So, not only can we not import the appearance automatically, we can’t even edit it manually either. Please advise as we must launch this site in the next couple days.

Thanks very much.

Greg

Hi Steven,

This worked partially – we did the export, but on import, we get the error:

Warning: array_key_exists(): The first argument should be either a string or an integer in /home/cpmr/public_html/wp-content/plugins/connections/includes/settings/class.settings.php on line 1806″Settings have been imported.”

and not all of the settings seem to copy in.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Greg
