Problem: The client is facing issues with incorrect translations of category names and missing category images in a WooCommerce store. Specifically, the Hungarian translation for 'PRÍVESY' is incorrect, and not all categories are displaying images. Solution: First, we adjusted the configuration for product variations in WPML's settings. We recommend the client to take a database backup and then navigate to WooCommerce > WooCommerce Multilingual & Multi-Currency > Status > Troubleshooting to sync variable products. We also advised changing the setting for product categories to "Translatable - only show translated items" and translate all product categories at WPML > Taxonomy Translation. Additionally, we resolved the issue by using the option to sync product taxonomies at WPML > Support > Troubleshooting, removing ghost entries, and clearing the WPML cache. Although the screen is limited to 1000 items, the search field can be used to find all categories. Categories assigned to a product that are not yet translated will automatically translate the first time the products are translated using the WPML Translation Editor.
