A custom field's translations (entered and confirmed working in Enterprise Explorer's Custom Field Translation) don't apply when the same field is shown in Aurena — the field displays correctly in English but never shows the translated text there, even though EE shows the translation fine.

Answer

Aurena custom field translations need to be entered separately from the EE Custom Field Translation entries — they aren't shared automatically. After adding the custom field to a page via Aurena Page Designer and publishing that page, a new corresponding entry appears in Text Translations; you need to add the same translation text there as well, matching what you originally entered for the EE Custom Field Translation. Note the entry's Path in Text Translations includes a context prefix (for example, '[global]' if the field was added to the Global context) — each context maintains its own separate translation, so make sure you're editing the translation under the correct context. After entering the Aurena-side translation and refreshing the language cache, you may also need to unpublish and republish the page in Page Designer for the field to actually pick up its proper translation.
