Problem: If you're experiencing issues with gallery images not updating in translated versions of products when performing bulk status changes from draft to publish, despite having the 'gallery_sync' custom field set to 'translate'. Solution: We recommend changing the setting of the 'gallery_sync' custom field to 'copy' instead of 'translate'. This should ensure that any new attachments are automatically copied rather than needing translation. If this does not resolve the issue, you might need to resynchronize media files. You can do this by navigating to WPML > Support > Troubleshooting, selecting Media, and clicking on 'synchronize taxonomies'. Additionally, you can use the Media Sync option under WPML > Settings to copy all your media to the other language at once. This process might take some time if you have thousands of media files. Furthermore, ensure that the '_product_image_gallery' custom field is also set to 'copy' in the WPML settings. After making these changes, re-save the translation.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If issues persist, please open a new support ticket.
