    Hello,

    Follow this doc https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/
    To translate theme strings use WPML > String translator.
    Also, if you need advanced help with WPML plugin settings you can contact WPML plugin support https://wpml.org/es/forums/forum/soporte-en-espanol/

    Hello,

    Provide, please, temporary access to your Dashboard. I need to check your site to find out what exactly does not work as it should.

    Hello,

    1) You did not translate any string http://prntscr.com/jaq0cy Use either po, mo files or WPML string translator http://prntscr.com/jaq16t to translate all the strings from Frontend, here you can find docs https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/ . Please, don’t hesitate to check WPML documentation to find out how to use this plugin and translate all the content.

    2) To add the language switcher to your top bar go to Appearance > Widgets > http://prntscr.com/japfwv I have added it.
    Here you can find docs about its options if you want to change something https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-switcher-options/

    Hello,

    You won’t be able to create the multilingual site without the third-party plugin.
    WPML is the plugin that allows you to make your site multilingual. You need to install plugin, follow the setup wizard and add your languages. Then you need to translate hardcoded strings of theme or plugins (using String Translator) and translate your content (posts, products, pages). If you speak FR, EN, ES you can do this by yourself, if you don’t then you need to hire the person who will be able to do this for you.

    Regards

    Hello,

    You don’t need to add any custom links. You need to use Language switcher widget and if page/product/post have translation user will be redirected to that language once click on the switcher button.

    How to translate every post/page/product you can find in WPML documentation. It has detailed explanation with images.

    If you want to remove any language go to WPML > Languages http://prntscr.com/jbvq6d . Where do you see DE? I see only 3 languages on your site – EN, ES, FR.

    Very good thanks, but now when I click in each languange only appears the SHop in the menu, the other options disappear, where do I activate all menus in all languages?
    Thanks

    Hello,

    Have you checked WPML plugin documentation? Have you followed instructions how to create menus for different languages and sync menus?

    We are Legenda theme support. We are not WPML plugin support. Please, follow the documentation and if you still have questions about WPML settings even if you read docs then contact plugin support because we provide support for questions related strictly to theme options and settings. Unfortunately, questions related to WordPress, WooCommerce and other third-party plugins are out the scope of our support.

    Regards
