I have a website with Polylang and Metabox. I need to manage the alt tag for every languages so I enabled the image duplication in the Polylang settings.
When I open the media selector popup it doesn't show the corresponding translated image.
Here a video to better explain my issue.

I need different alt tag for every translation. How can I do?
Thank you

Hi,

I think the issue is not related to Meta Box, it just helps you to select the image in the media popup. You can try again with the option Featured Image of WordPress to re-check it.
It is possible that the version of Polylang on your site does not support translating the media, you can follow this documentation to use Polylang Pro to translate the media https://polylang.pro/doc/working-with-media/

Hi,
with the featured media it works great. The issue happens only with MB Image field.

Hi,

You need to translate the Alt Text when editing the image, then just select the image on the popup gallery when editing the post. Screen record https://www.loom.com/share/92f383be87b54edb8df93450082e4d85

Polylang does not look to translate the Alt Text on the popup gallery like that.
