Minimum Requirements: WordPress 3.5.2 or greater PHP version 5.4.0 or greater MySQL version 5.0 or greater Tips for developers The Transifex Live plugin uses WordPress hooks to manipulate the links found in your website’s content, so they always point to the appropriate language. If you use custom post types (or one of your plugins does) that emits the ‘the_content’ filter, our code might not be triggered. For those cases, it is recommended to manually trigger our custom filter ‘tx_link’ before you return your content, as seen in the example below: Ex. $updated_content = apply_filters(‘tx_link’, $original_content); It is also recommended to use widgets in your theme instead of custom code, since this allows you to make your integration more future proof against incompatibilities with 3rd party modules.

Use function ‘wpm_get_page_by_title( $title )’ as solution.
