    Hello,

    Those lines are present in default.po file in wp-content/themes/woopress/languages directory. We recommend you to translate register form via this file as described in our documentation:

    ok? so this part of the webdesign, …this is the only part of the webdesign where I need to translate it via the default.po file… it sounds strange that WPML not are able to get the strings?

    Are you sure?

    So are you saying that your theme is not WPML compatible?

    How do I use it in English, Danish and even in more languages?

    This is the only thing on the site? where do I fine this .po file?

    WPML writes:

    #1,
    Where do you configure these texts?
    Can you please take a screenshot to show them?

    #2,
    Which plugin/theme is creating them?

    #3,
    There are 2 possibilities:
    – They are hard-coded texts, you need to scan them or to use .mo files.
    See this document: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/theme-localization/

    – They are changeable texts in wp-admin, they are usually saved in wp_options table, you need to add them to String Translation.
    See the document: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/ , section “Translating strings in the wp_options table”

    Are you sure I cant scan them?

    Hello,

    .po file you can find in wp-content/themes/woopress/languages/ folder https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/woopress/#!/2_how_to_translate
    Use it to translate necessary strings related to registration and save as da_DK.po and da_DK.mo into the same folder. Actually necessary strings should be available also via the string translation, but not sure why they are not shown there on your site. But we checked and it 100% works if you translate .po file.

    Thanks again Olga!
