    Hello,

    Do you know, how to use Loco Translate to get a PO file with Metabox Label and Description fields? I have Loco translate installed, but I can't figure out how to get the PO file.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    You need to use the code to register the meta box and custom fields, then use Loco Translate to scan the text (.pot) and start translating. See more here https://support.metabox.io/topic/block-field-lables-not-translatable/#post-35758

    Hello,

    Thank you for your quick answer. I understand what you are linking to. But the problem is that I don't have a way to export custom labels and description fields. How to export a PO file for the label and description custom field Metabox? Can you give me the script or tutorial? We need to create a new PO file from the values stored in the label and description Metabox.

    Thank you

    Hi,

    If you are using the builder to create the custom fields, you can get the PHP code and put the code to the file functions.php in the theme/child theme folder to register the custom fields by coding then translate the field name and field description.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your reply. Can you please tell us about how to most easily to get a PO File containing all labels and descriptions of the custom fields? Because putting code into function.php is not a solution unless it produces a PO File.

    Thank you
