WPML: URLs in Component Parameter fields

Support
#1

I’m trying to figure out the best approach to this problem.

in our components, we have URLs entered into parameter fields

specifically, we have a link to an PDF in English and need to update the translated page to the French version of the PDF.

I believe that Media Translation would (should?) work on this if we actually used a media file or native WP link.

is there a way I can get the URLs to display on the translation page?

I’ve read through a handful of other posts and it sounds as though a filter might exist that exposes the URLs for translation, but I wanted to confirm everything before blindly trying code snippets when I’m not 100% positive that’s what they’re for.

@Charlie?

Hi @splaquet,

I have referred this to our developers, and it appears that Components aren’t translatable themselves, and parameters aren’t either, right now. We are waiting for WPML 5.0 to be released, which will add layout translation support (headers, footers, singles), and then WPML will tackle Components and parameters.

Cheers.
