Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you to resolve the issue.

Does it happens with multiple posts/pages? Please upgrade the following configurations for the better performance of the site.

1) Increase *WP Memory Limit* to *256*(the minimum required memory limit for WPML is *128*). Please check the following links for more details

https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/

https://wordpress.org/support/article/editing-wp-config-php/#increasing-memory-allocated-to-php

2) Increase the *MaxInputVars* of PHP settings to *10000*. Please check the following article for more details or contact your system admin/hosting provider for this purpose.

Please clear all types caches. Then update the translation and mark it as complete, and make sure the issue exists or not.

Hello,

Thank you for the updates. Hope you are recovered from the health issues now.

Please let us know if it happens with multiple posts/pages translation or not. Try the following steps and check if is there any difference in the results or not.

1) Open the Page for edit in the default language
2) Make a minor change in the page and update it(to refresh the translation settings)
3) Visit WPML>>Translation Management Dashboard
4) Choose the Page you want to translate or update the existing translations
5) Send it to Translation Basket
6) Visit WPML>>Translation Management>>Translation Basket
7) Send it for translation, by choosing yourself as a translator
8) Visit WPML>>Translations queue and translate the page by clicking the *Translate* button
9) Visit WPML>>Translation Management>>Dashboard

This is the correct workflow for translation. Refer to this article for more details https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/

Hey there, so i did what you told me and the page worked, i tranlsated another page which was already on the list, same problem.
So i tried to cancel all the jobs and add them again one by one, it gives me "The job could not be cancelled", i added new jobs "same pages" and deleted them, it worked.

I don't know what's happening, but WPML used to be a lot easier and simpler than this, so please help me out becuase am really bored of the amount of stuff that's happening
