Those post types must be provided by some WordPress theme or plugin; they are not part of “standard” WordPress. The plugin isn’t very complicated and could probably be easily extended to include these post types, however you will have to investigate this yourself.

Hi John, thanks a lot for your quick feedback! I will try this within an hour or two.

Regarding the portfolio that i am talking about, it’s in wordpress. I can add POSTS, SLIDER, PORTFOLIOS, TESTIMONIAL, LINKS, PAGES.
On the website i am currently working on, i am mostly using : PAGES + PORTFOLIOS.. and i cant customise the titles of Portfolios? (there are no title box)

Hi Herbert,

Have you tried changing the title hook used from single_post_title to wp_title (in qtranslate-meta.php, line 29)
I don't know what "Portfolios" you are referring to...

Hello,

your plugin is brilliant, but i still have 2 problems :
- the most important one, is that i did set a “static” homepage, but even this way there are NO titles or meta description on my homepage. It is very important so… how may i fix this?
- the other problem is that there are no field to customize title/ meta descriptions in Porfolios.. which i am using.

Any way to change that? The homepage being extremely important.. and i dont want to put it in the “settings” which makes that it will be available on all the pages!

Thanks a lot for that plugin!

I think this plugin is awesome! At first, I had the same problem as soulwarrior, but luckily I DID make a backup. After installing it again it worked fine. Thanks again!

Sorry to hear about your bad luck… you really should make a backup before you update WordPress (I don’t know why that feature isn’t built-in).
I have never heard of this issue, though. Most likely it is due to WordPress updating your posts’ custom fields, rather than something the plugin has done itself. You might want to dig around in your database as it’s possible your meta data is still there. Look in the wp_postmeta table, for fields that being with qtrans_meta:

I used this plug-in on a website, had all the data entered, updated the website and now the data’s missing completely. Is this a known issue? Do I have to safe all the entries in the description and keyword fields before updating the plug-in? I’m quite annoyed about this problem to be perfectly honest and didn’t expect the plug-in to cause this issue.
Other than that, I was happy with it. But this is a huge upset for me as it generates a lot of unnecessary extra work.

Thank you John, it works.
In addition I have to add | to the end of every `Browser title` box in a plugin widget.
… and I have just rate a plugin, to thank you somehow.
