Translating Your Newsletter Sign-Up Forms
If you use Translate Everything mode, your newsletter sign-up forms will be automatically translated with the rest of your content.
If you use Translate Some mode, you can send your sign-up forms for translation using the Translation Management Dashboard.
- Go to the WPML → Translation Management page and use the filter controls at the top to select Sign-up Form from the first dropdown menu. Then, click the Filter button, which will display a list of available sign-up forms.
- Select the forms you want to translate.
- In the Translation options section, select the Translate option for each language.
- Click on the Translate selected content button. If you use other translators or a translation service on your site, this button will instead allow you to add the form to the Translation Basket, then send the translation job to your translators.
