Hi,

I have a customer who uses the Wordpress WPML plugin to set up a multilingual website. He sent me xliff files of his website to translate. Obviously, the xliff export of Wordpress/WPML is basically rubbish, so all text including all xml tags are inserted in one segment, and the tags are not protected.

Is there anything I can do at least mark the tags to better see the text to be translated?

Any hints or suggestions would be welcome!

TIA

Which version of Transit do you have?

Do you usually translate XLIFF files in Transit?
