Resolved

Resolved in: 4.3.2

Overview of the issue

In WPML 4.3 we have introduced a new way of handling translations coming from plugins.
For that way to work, we need to scan them first.

However if you have the constant “ICL_DONT_LOAD_LANGUAGES_JS” defined, then the scan would not complete at this time as it stops loading some required scripts.

Workaround

Our developers are working on releasing a fix soon.

For now, it is recommended, at least for the initial scanning to not set “ICL_DONT_LOAD_LANGUAGES_JS” constant

  1. Hi,

    I just updated to 4.3.1 and it asked to me create .mo files afterward. I don’t know what it means and I accepted it.

    Now all my translated content shows 404 error on the site. Please help me out solve this?

    • This sounds like a known issue which we are fixing and is coming from Yoast and WPML’s latest updates. If you have Yoast activated on your site please deactivate or change to a former version. If not please report this in our support forum.

    • This is expected I am afraid, the actual final fix will be released with WPML 4.3.2 which is coming in the next few days until then you need to keep that constant set.

  2. It would be helpful if you mentioned what versions are effect for Yoast and WPML? So we can not update or roll back?

  3. I hope that the updated release 4.3.2 will be available soon. In my opinion, this is a major flaw in the current version of WPML.

  4. I am on 4.3.2 and I still have the issue. BTW: There was no update notification for 4.3.2 , I deactivated 4.
    4.3.1 , deleted it & then installed 4.3.2 to see if the .mo file issue would be resolved but unfortunately it is not.

    • Hello Dirk!

      Did you already update to 4.3.3?
