Problem: The client was experiencing an issue where the Elementor template title was not displaying correctly in the second language for an alternate loop item. The first loop item was translated correctly, but the alternate loop item was not showing the translated version automatically. Solution: We recommended the following steps: 1. Edit the template in the original language (German). 2. Make some changes and save the template. 3. Update the translation template using the WPML Translation Editor. It is important not to edit the translation template directly, as changes will be lost after updating the translation with WPML Translation Editor. We also provided a link to our documentation for further guidance: https://wpml.org/faq/why-arent-my-translations-showing/
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend you try the steps outlined above. However, please note that the solution might be irrelevant due to it being outdated or not applicable to your case. If these steps do not resolve your issue, 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. Should you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket with us.
Problem: The client wants to synchronize content between the Italian and German versions of their website, where some content is translated and some is not.
Solution: 1. We recommend using the WPML 'Duplicate' feature to copy content from the Italian site to the German site where translations are missing. This will ensure that changes in the Italian content are automatically applied to the German version. For detailed instructions, please visit Displaying Untranslated Content on Pages in Secondary Languages.
2. If your site uses custom fields, you can decide which custom fields should be translated and which should be copied (synchronized) between languages. This allows you to keep some fields synchronized across languages while translating others. For guidance on this process, please refer to Translating Custom Fields.
By following these steps, you can ensure that specific content remains synchronized between the Italian and German versions of your site, while still allowing for translations where needed.
