# Search bar labels showing in English

On Dutch or German pages of a multilingual site, the search bar may show English labels such as "2 guests", "Loading…", or "No results".

**Why this happens.** Dutch and German translations for every guest-facing label in the Search Bar Pro module are included starting in HomeRunner Toolkit 3.288.0.

**How to fix it.** Update the plugin and check the page again:

1. Update the HomeRunner Toolkit plugin to version 3.288.0 or later.
2. Reload a Dutch or German page.

The labels then follow the page language automatically. Any translations you have already entered in WPML String Translation or Loco Translate take priority. The built-in wording only fills labels that have no translation of their own. Other languages continue to work as before.

If a label still shows in English after updating, contact support with the page URL and the exact label text. Support can then check whether the label is outside the search bar or needs a manual WPML translation.

Still stuck? [Contact the HomeRunner team](https://homerunner.io/contact/) with your site address and what you tried, and we take it from there.
