Hi, Have a multilingual website with the WPML plugin. Both sites have the WPML plugin. Distribuitor is pulling the pots in English, but does not pull the posts in other languages.

Kind Regards, Filipe Nunes

@FilNunes I'm not familiar with WPML's architecture, but a quick look at their product tour makes it seem like they're creating separate posts for each translation and somehow maintaining the link between translated posts. In that case, Distributor would likely treat each post as a different post needing to be distributed. I see that WPML has a compatibility program for themes and plugins, so we could check with them there or via their support forums to find the best way to triage this with you. I'm marking this as an enhancement and for a future release as we're currently focused on some major performance improvements within Distributor, but can look into this more specifically after we wrap up the v1.5.0 release.

@jeffpaul

Thanks for your feedback. I can share with you the last version of WPML plugin in private.

Kind Regards, Filipe Nunes

I may be interested in pursuing this. In testing I found that (as you pointed out Jeff) the translated post is a quite distinct post and if I "distribute" it/push it - ie the non-english post - it goes successfully over the fence to the remote site but does not pickup the correct language on the remote site (on the remote site it uses my default language = en, instead of its native language on the source site). Without getting into more involved requirements or integration, just getting this extra detail correct would likely provide my client with a working solution i,e. if after distribution to the remote site, it picks up on the WPML language correctly (WMPL has the same languages configured on source / destination).

Jeff - are there a few bullet points / pointers you could offer to guide my dev in looking more closely at this ie the likely parts of the code base that may need adjusting (short of providing full specs - just some pointers to get him started)?
