What You Can Accomplish

The integration allows you to have these labels in many different languages, so that the user can actually choose the one that suits him/her better. It's not possible to translate the reviews themselves.

The example below shows the form being translated from English to Brazilian Portuguese.

Requirements

To create multilingual review forms, you first need to have installed:

• WordPress Review plugin 2.3.5 or superior (Product Page)
• WPML Plugin Multilingual CMS Edition (Product Page)
• WPML String Translation Add-on.

Once both plugins are installed, you can begin translating all aspects of the WordPress Review plugin to the desired language.

Step-by-Step

1. Enable the desired languages by going to Admin Dashboard → WPML → Languages → Site Languages and clicking on Add / Remove languages.

   

   Also, make sure you configure the plugin so that the users can switch between languages in the Front-End.

2. Find the WordPress Review plugin labels by going to WPML plugin → String Translation. From there, click on the dropdown menu "Select strings within domain" and choose cm-review. Wait for the filter to be applied.
