WPML Translation of site logo and tagline

[Ian]

I need the logo and tag to change to French when I change language. I did not see this in the strings when I pulled them up in WPML.

How do I get these to change.

OK found the tag line but not the logo.

The String Translations module will allow you to specify different content for your theme options based on the selected language.

1. Go under “WPML -> Theme and plugins localization”
2. Scroll down to “Strings in the theme” and click on “Scan the theme for strings”
3. Scroll down to “Strings in the plugins”, select the plugin you want to scan and click on “Scan the selected plugins for strings”
5. Once you followed the above steps go under “WPML -> String Translation”. All strings available for translation should display in the table you see there.

David,

From what I see this will allow me to translate all the text strings used by Atelier, but what I am look for is a French logo in French version of site and English version of Logo in English site.

You should be able to specify one for each language.

If you wanted to do it with code, you can use this example to switch between languages:

<?php if(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='gb'): ?>
   <img src="your_logo.jpg"/>
<?php elseif(ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE=='fr'): ?>
   <img src="your_logo.jpg"/>
<?php endif;?>

This would require you to have your child theme active and a bit of PHP knowledge to amend the correct function for the logo output. The function is called sf_logo() and is located here: swift-framework/core/sf-header.php
