🌍 Multilingual Support (Polylang & WPML)
Estatik supports multilingual websites and can be used together with popular translation plugins such as Polylang and WPML.
Strings that come directly from the plugin codebase are handled by the Loco Translate plugin.

🧩 Translating dynamic content (Fields Builder)
To make your website fully multilingual, you can use Polylang or WPML.
Some plugin data is stored in the database (for example, field names and section names created in the Fields Builder).
These values are not part of the codebase and require additional steps to make them available for translation.
To register these strings for translation:
- Open the Fields Builder or plugin Settings (since 4.3.1).
- Enter or update the field or section name (since 4.3.1).
- Save the changes.
After saving, these values will become available in your translation plugin (Polylang or WPML).
⚙️ Reserved fields (important)
For fields with reserved names, additional configuration is required.
When editing a field in the Fields Builder, enter its name into the following option:
“Visible on the front page (optional, helpful for translating custom field)”
This ensures the field is properly registered and available for translation.
Note: Only fields that are saved and used on the frontend can be detected by translation plugins.
