Why it is important to update to this version
This version includes security fixes for Core, String Translation, and Translation Management. These fixes resolve some cases when the user is already logged in as admin.
A few more compatibility fixes are included along with some stability fixes to prevent issues in uncommon server configurations.
Let’s go over the most important changes and fixes for this release. See the last section of this page for a complete changelog.
WPML Core 3.9.3
- Fixed a fatal error caused by a function recently removed in the latest versions of the Divi theme.
- Changed the CDN URL from HTTPS to HTTP to prevent issues on some sites, related to older versions of cURL.
- Resolved a Parse error occurring when using PHP 5.2.
WPML String Translation 2.7.3

WPML Media Translation 2.2.3
- Resolved an Uncaught exception „InvalidArgumentException“ when adding external images as translations. The issue was happening when translating a post via the Translation Editor.
