Has anyone got this working fully with WPML? the metaboxes don't send to the translator.

You may need a wpml-config.xml file.

Hi, it's do with the encoding of metaboxes makes it incompatable

@Zackio if you have more info about WPML or the troubleshooting you've done, that would be much appreciated.

It's been a long time coming, but I will be getting started on v2.0 ... however, I realize that I simply can not do it all myself, this would just cause the project to slow and perhaps die.

Wpml also has this program https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/go-global-program/

For helping plugins get compatible. I've used it for a handful of mine. Their devs might be able to advise on how to handle the serialized meta.

Dimas, I might be able to help with a new version. Do you have a road map? What are you planning to do?

I did try the wpml devs but they didnt have any answers. They were ok with passing it without the metaboxes fully working though. Yeah it was the serialised data that was the problem. On 21 Nov 2015 19:32, "Kathy" [email protected] wrote:

I like the serialized data for not blowing up your database, but I think there's an option (maybe one of the constants?) that allows you to save each field individually. I can't remember, it's been a while since I've worked with Alchemy.

It was a year ago I was doing this so my memory is foggy. I think you could still translate them but not do the send to the translators bit. But I don't think this a common usage as no one has asked me why that wasn't working!

There was something about being able to tell WPML how to deal with the serialized data but the documentation was sparse.

The option is "mode" with values being WPALCHEMY_MODE_ARRAY or WPALCHEMY_MODE_EXTRACT .. see http://www.farinspace.com/wpalchemy-metabox/#options

Hey Dimas, wondering what the wpml or polylang compatibility is these days. This is the most recent comment I've found.

Hi Wendy, nothing specifically released for wpml or polylang.
