Problem: The client is using a Revolution Slider template and has added the WPML language switcher shortcode, but it displays as text instead of functioning. Additionally, the language switcher cannot be clicked due to an HTML layer. Solution: 1. Replace the shortcode with
[wpml_language_switcher]
and verify if the issue is resolved. 2. Increase the WordPress memory limit to at least 128MB. You can do this by adding the following code to your wp-config.php file:
Place it above the line /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */. 3. If the language switcher still cannot be clicked, contact the Slider Revolution support service to inquire about removing the obstructive HTML layer with ID SR7_12_1-41-16.

You want to remove auto synchronization of pages/posts when duplicating them, as you need manual translation.
Solution:
After duplicating a post/page to a secondary language, open the duplicated post/page for editing and click on the Translate independently button. You can find more details on this step here: Translate Independently.
Then, return to the original language post/page and modify it to see if you are getting the expected results.

Problem: The client reported issues with long delays when saving translations on a page, and the footer not translating correctly despite following provided instructions. Solution: 1. For the issue of delays when saving translations, we recommended refreshing the page as demonstrated in the screen recording: https://go.screenpal.com/watch/cZlwDAneqqk. 2. Regarding the footer not translating, we corrected the string translation to point to the correct language Footer template ID via the WPML String Translation interface.

Problem: You are trying to translate the 'lang' attribute of the VikRentCar shortcode ([vikrentcar view="vikrentcar" lang="en-US"]) using WPML, but the translation does not reflect on the page. The issue arises because the 'lang' attribute is stored in a custom database table and is not dynamically updated during the localization process. Solution: To resolve this, you need to make the value stored in the custom database tables translatable with WPML. You can follow the guide on making strings translatable in WPML here: String Package Translation. Until this configuration is set, you will need to manually translate the page containing the VikRentCar shortcode using the WordPress editor instead of the Advanced Translation Editor. Additionally, since the VikRentCar plugin is not listed in WPML’s compatibility directory, it is recommended to contact the VikRentCar development team for further support and encourage them to join WPML's Go Global program for better compatibility.

The client is unable to translate the footer of their website using WPML, despite having successfully translated the header. They are using the 7Up Theme.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend checking if the Footer post type is set to be translatable. You can do this by navigating to WPML>>Settings>>Post Type Translation. Ensure you perform a site backup first, then set the option for the Footer post type to Translatable – only show translated items and save the changes. Afterwards, attempt to translate the Footer posts to see if the issue is resolved.
For more detailed guidance, please refer to our documentation on translating custom posts: Translating Custom Posts.

Problem: You are experiencing an issue where string translations revert to previous versions even after clearing the cache in WPML and the W3 Total Cache plugin, and deactivating the latter. The server does not have cache functions. Solution: The issue might be related to how textdomains are loaded in your theme or plugins, especially with the changes introduced in WordPress 6.7. We recommend checking if your theme or any plugins are using an outdated method to call textdomains. You should discuss this with your theme's developer. For more details, see the discussion on WordPress support.
