IMPLEMENTED: Polylang improvment - product / categories?

Great to see updates on this. It was a shot into the dark assigning pages and post templates. Really appreciated! But unfortunately product & product categories were forgotten?
Building shop cards query loops is a pain in the butt so far. For now I only have two languages but anyone with 2+ languages has pain.

//Edit: Any maybe not directly related, but in the Editor > Templates window the Polylang translated templates are missing. Would be a big workflow improvement to be able to jump to the other language version of the page/template/post directly from the Editor. Elementor has it on its exit page for instance.

Hi @Mike8040,

You’re referring to the language prefix which allows you to know what language a post belongs to correct? if that’s the case then on my end the prefix works for products as well (if they’re assigned a language).

Great point about the missing translated templates in the templates manager. I have added this to our board.

Hi, you are correct that it now works for products. I have missed that. But not for product categories or product tags which if you set up a product grid loop by terms which is in my view the most sensible approach is a pain. It would be a good if in this state now at least IDs could be entered.

Hi Mike,
We’ve implemented this improvement in Bricks 1.9.5, now available as a one-click update in your WordPress Dashboard.

Changelog: Bricks 1.9.5 Changelog – Bricks
Please let us know if you are still experiencing issues.

Thanks for the update. This is great and already very helpful for the workflow!

I would like to note that this is not implemented fully. Still the products categories are wild guessing and missing the [lang] attribute with 1.9.7.1

Hi @Mike8040,

Yea you’re right, Stefan was referring to the missing translated templates in the templates manager. I have updated the ticket to “WIP”.

Unfortunately the language slug / indicator in the drop down menu is still missing for product categories in 1.9.9. Its seem a minor issue, but we are still wild guess which category to add in queries. For identical translations of product categories sometimes only the one language will be shown which one is editing but sometimes all available categories will be shown and one needs to add all bc one has no clue which is the specific one for the language. There is no consistency in the behavior of Bricks in this regard. It would be great if either only categories are shown for the language one is editing or if the [EN] indicator is printed like it is the case for post and pages.

We’ve added this featrue in Bricks 1.11 BETA, now available as a manual download (Bricks – Account)
