Hi Geoff,

Thanks for your reply! Sorry I’m delayed in replying, busy week.

So I’ve cloned our site to a staging server to experiment with this issue without disrupting the live site.

On that staging server, I’ve followed the directions on https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/setting-up-the-events-calendar-with-wpml/ verbatim.

I’ve also tried enabling the “Language filtering for AJAX operations.”

I’ve also searched for “January” under String Translation, and all instances already were translated to Enero.

Unfortunately, despite all that, the “January 2018” title at the top of month view is still showing as “January 2018” not “Enero 2018.”

Furthermore, I’m noticing a new issue after installing WPML Translation Management and WPML String Translation where URLs are breaking. For example, the English URL for month view is:

https://staging-eusd.kinsta.com/events/month/

The Spanish equivalent URL should be:

https://staging-eusd.kinsta.com/es/eventos/mes/

But that link is now broken / showing as a 404.

As you can see on our live server, the equivalent page URL (https://eusd.org/es/eventos/mes/) works just fine. But over on staging, installing the String Translation plugin seems to be causing it to break.

To answer your questions about my settings for Localization Options, please see the attached screenshot.

My fear at this point is that this issue is primarily on the WPML side of the line. I frankly don’t have the technical know-how to troubleshoot something this deep, especially seeing how cumbersome and complicated the WPML plugin really is (and their website and documentation isn’t nearly as helpful as The Event Calendar’s). It’s a plugin that works perfectly for standard pages and posts, but I have yet to see it work without issue with another third-party plugin (Gravity Forms, Events Calendar, or otherwise), regardless of what kind of theme is being used.

If you have any other hints or ideas based on what I’ve described, and my Localization Options, I’m all ears. Otherwise, I may have to just give up on this and leave the Spanish month view title showing in English because all other aspects seem to be working just fine without the additional String Translation and Translation Management plugins.

Thank you!

Thanks Crisoforo! Your reply definitely pointed me down the right path, and my issue is now resolved. The year is now showing next to the year, as desired. Thank you very much, I really appreciate it!
