Hi,

I´m making a multilanguage site english/chinese. I have vantage premium / wpml installed.

I want to know how to translate the site information that appears in the footer (the one that is set in theme settings > general). In my english versión a put the copyright information, so I want to make a translation of that copyright to chinese.

Thanks!

    Hi Marcos

    That’s a good question. I’ll need to chat to WPML about that moving forward. I’m not certain how to handle that right now.

    If you send through a set of temporary login details to [email protected] we can perhaps insert your copyright text as a footer widget. I can format it it using CSS so that it looks the same as it does now.

    Hi Andrew!
    It would be great if you can help me with that. I tried to put the copyright text through a widget but the chinese/english versions were different and also they were not properly aligned…

    I will send to you the credential to support@ with the details.

    Thanks in advance!

    Marcos.-

    I use the PHP Code plugin and use an “if then” statement like this…
    The Example below is for the Welsh Language (cy)

    Copyright © My English Company Name

    Hawlfraint © My Welsh Company Name

    WPML also has its own text switcher, but I find the above more flexible

    Sorry! should have used the Code snippet tags!

    <?php if(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='en'): ?>
Copyright  ©<?php $thisyear = date("Y");echo ("$thisyear" );
	  ?> Equinox Communications


<?php elseif(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='cy'): ?>
Hawlfraint ©<?php $thisyear = date("Y");echo ("$thisyear" );
	  ?> Equinox Communications
