Sorry if this has been answered before, but I could not find it.

I want to translate the labels for 1) custom taxonomies and 2) custom fields within metaboxes

The goal is when I display them on the frontend via A) get_taxonomy_labels or B) MB frontend submission, to show the translated label for current language.

I have installed Loco Translate but don't see a file showing my custom taxonomies/fields.

Is there a way to do this? The only thing I figured out currently would be to:
- for taxonomies, use a template string instead of get_taxonomy labels
- for custom fields, create different metaboxes for each language, and show them in the post conditionally. This might be okay but doesn't seem very efficient. Is there a simpler way?

Thank you

Hi pza,

Currently, all text in the builder are plain text. They're fixed and not translatable. I'd suggest exporting to code, and use Loco Translate plugin to translate the labels.
