Support Policy
Get expert support directly from WPML’s developers.
We will be able to answer about anything related to WPML, point you in the right directions and help you use WPML better (much better).
Typical support:
- How to do stuff with WPML
- How I should make my theme multilingual
- Choosing the best alternative for translating site elements
- Webmaster help on translation workflow
Please note that we can’t do your work for you and we can’t work magic. Here are some of the things that we can’t do and don’t promise as part of our standard support.
All technical support is provided via our forum, where WPML’s developers answer every question.
What’s NOT INCLUDED with WPML’s Support
Fix Compatibility Issues With Your Server
Folks run WordPress on many different server types. We try very hard to make sure that WPML is compatible with any environment. However, some compatibility problems remain.
We can help you trace issues and find solutions. However, we can’t always fix everything, at least not immediately.
Fix Compatibility With Other Plugins and Themes
We do our best to make WPML compatible with everything else in the WordPress world. However, much of it is not in our hands.
If you’re having a problem that involves a different plugin or theme, we can’t make it work.
We’re going to do our best to help. If you show us code fragments, we can tell you what needs changing, but we can’t maintain other plugins.
Fix Your Custom Themes
We’ll answer any question and help you get it right, but we can’t take your entire theme and debug it.
Add Features to WPML
Many great features in WPML came from user suggestions. If you have an idea for a cool new feature, we’ll take it seriously and discuss it with you. However, we can’t promise anything.
Fix Bugs in WPML
This one may sound strange, but it’s true. If you find a bug in WPML, we take it very seriously. We’ll add it to the bug-fix queue and work on it. However, we can’t fix everything right that minute. So, if you hit a bug that’s keeping you from doing something, we can’t promise that we’ll fix it right away.
We’ll work with you to find a sensible temporary solution and will let you know as soon as it’s fixed, but we can’t guarantee any schedule.

Replied there. We need the cooperation of the My Calendar plugin to work on something like that. We can’t just take his code and do whatever patches we feel like. Have you tried to invite him to this?

Hello there, I cannot access to my “downloads” in my account. Purchased the plugin in October/2011 … that means I should have access to download updates for a year but I cannot access. Any help please? Thanks,
I see that your order was refunded. This is why you cannot download new versions. We refund orders when people request refunds or when PayPal notifies us that the transaction has failed.
Hello WPML – I urgently need to spend 30 to 60 PAID minutes verbal on with someone this morning to get over the hump of our confusion and problems with the way WPML works. Neil is on vacation. No response from others. Please, this is hugely urgent for us. Any ideas? Thank you.
Hi,
I am trying to install Site-press-multilingual-cms.2.4.3 on
WP 3.3.1 (Godaddy site)
Over Easy Theme from WooThemes
No other plugin.
This is the message I am getting:
Unpacking the package…
Installing the plugin…
Destination folder already exists. /home/content/79/8889779/html/wp-content/plugins/sitepress-multilingual-cms/
Plugin install failed.
Please let me know what I should do.
Michel
The error message says that the folder already exists in your ‘plugins’ directory.
You should use an FTP program to delete the entire folder and then upload and activate manually. Seems like the web browser cannot delete folders on the drive, causing this error to happen.
Please have a look at this FAQ with step-by-step instructions:
