Problem:
tax_query in WP_Query does not display results

Solution:
From the provided query, the client was using post_id on the query, we recommend to use the wpml_object_id hook to get the ids properly while using WPML

Displays in default language but not in translated language.

$post_id = get_the_id();
$args = array(
	'post_type' => 'vendor',
	'post_status' => 'publish',
	'post__not_in' => array( $post_id ),
	'posts_per_page' => $limit,
	'tax_query' => array(
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'vendor_category',
            'field'    => 'term_id',
            'terms'    => wp_get_post_terms( $post_id, 'vendor_category', array( 'fields' => 'ids' ) ),
        ),
    ),
	'meta_query' => array(
        array(
            'key'     => 'subscription_level',
            'value'   => 3,
            'compare' => 'in',
        ),
    )
);

$query = new WP_Query($args);

Hello there,

Thank you for contacting WPML support. I'd be happy to assist you further on this issue.

You are using post_id on the query, which may not be returning the correct id on the translated language creating issues.

Could you please use the wpml_object_id hook to get the translated ID and let me know if this helps?

Look forward to your reply.

Thanks
