My Menu Will Only Semi Translate I have created a menu on my site and have used features to export it. The first 2 menu items are translating to different languages but the third is not.

The third word is Contact. I have gone to /admin/config/regional/translate/translate and searched for Contact. I get the following.



At the bottom of my features it has

  // Translatables
  // Included for use with string extractors like potx.
  t('Contact');


So we can see that is there OK.
When looking at my menu at /admin/structure/menu/manage/menu-example it is all in English. If I go to /fr/admin/structure/menu/manage/menu-example Contact remains in English and the other words change.

Contact is a mailto:link if that makes any difference.

  $menu_links['menu-teleplan_contact:mailto:a@a.com'] = array(
    'menu_name' =&gt; 'menu-example',
    'link_path' =&gt; 'mailto:a@a.com',
    'router_path' =&gt; '',
    'link_title' =&gt; 'Contact',
    'options' =&gt; array(
      'attributes' =&gt; array(
        'title' =&gt; '',
      ),
      'identifier' =&gt; 'menu-example_contact:mailto:a@a.com',
    ),
    'module' =&gt; 'menu',
    'hidden' =&gt; 0,
    'external' =&gt; 1,
    'has_children' =&gt; 0,
    'expanded' =&gt; 0,
    'weight' =&gt; -48,
    'customized' =&gt; 1,
  );


Why is the word in my menu not translating?
I think you will find there is a conflict somewhere that is preventing the specific word (as it is a link) from being translated, and this submodule should overcome the conflict. I would utilise the "Menu Translation" submodule as it will specifically achieve what you are attempting above, and hopefully make it simpler! I would use the Translate and Localize Menus option (a detailed guide of how to do that is here)

If you are still stuck, and are using SuperFish for your menus (even though this is supported in i18n), there is a work around here and this may overcome the problem also.

Lastly, just in case, ensure you have this update, the most recent version, installed also.
