Translate custom excerpts in blog mini

[dailybicycle]

Hi,

My issue is the following: My blog page uses the swiftcode for the mini blog. As I use the Swift builder for my posts, the automatically generated excerpt is blank and therefore unsatisfactory. So I use the custom excerpt field. I have a multi-lingual site using qtranslate (plus), yet this field is incapable of being translated.

My workaround has been to create two posts, one for English, one for Spanish and using a blog post category to select in each version of the blog page the posts from one language or the other.

The “next post” link at the bottom of each post lists all the posts not just the ones matching the language of the currently viewed post. This is awkward and as such I would like to avoid it.

Does anyone have any similar experience that could shed some light on a solution to this issue?

Ideally I’d like to just create one post and have translate it using qtranslate each time, rather than duplicating posts.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Hi,

The multi-lingual supoort we have is for WPML plugin. And in WPML it’s necessary to create 1 post for each language exactly for things like related posts, and posts only in a specified language.

Hello again Rui.

What would be the best way, then, to remove the pagination on the blog post itself without removing the pagination visible on the main blog page.

I tried:

.pagination-wrap {
    display: none!important;
}

It removed both. Any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Ok, so I figured it out from another forum topic. This worked for me:

.pagination-wrap.blog-pagination {
  display: none;
}

Do you have any suggestions on how to edit the text that appears in the pagination for the blog page itself. I would like to change “Próximo” in Spanish to “Siguiente”?

Thanks!

I can’t see that text. Can you provide the url of that page?

Hi,
You can change this text through translation easily.

Hi Mohammad. I assume you’re referring to WPML, but if not, could you please clarify?

Thanks!

Hi,

Inside your .po file you should look for
`”Next ‘

And change the translation from

msgstr "Próximo<i class='fa-angle-right'></i>"

to

msgstr "Siguiente<i class='fa-angle-right'></i>"
