Problem: You are trying to synchronize translations after uploading a translated XLIFF file. Although the translations show as completed when you import the XLIFF file and assign the task to yourself, many texts still appear as untranslated in the WPML Advanced Translation Editor. Solution: This behavior is expected. The translations from the XLIFF file will not be visible in the WPML Advanced Translation Editor. They are only visible on the frontend of your website or if you use the Classic Translation Editor or manually update them via your page builder.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with translations from LILT not automatically synchronizing into WordPress through WPML. Instead, translations appear as 'Translation ready to download' in the WPML → Translation Jobs list, and the client has to manually click 'Download' to import them. They have set the 'Translation pickup mode' to 'The site will fetch translations manually' due to server stability issues when multiple translations were processed simultaneously. Solution: This setting requires manual intervention to download translations. Currently, WPML does not support automatic fetching via API or cron jobs for LILT translations, and there are no alternative methods provided within WPML for automatic synchronization in this scenario. To manage translations, you should use the 'Check status and get translations' button in the Translation Dashboard.

Problem: You are trying to connect the Translated service to your CMS using the WPML plugin, but the API key provided by Translated doesn't work. Solution: We recommend regenerating a new API key. Ensure that only the WPML plugin is active on your site when you try this new key. Additionally, you might need to provide Translated with a screenshot of your installed languages for mapping purposes. You can find more details on what is required here.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with WPML's Batch Delivery failing when using the Smartling Connector. The jobs are not accepted by Smartling, and no notification emails are sent regarding job cancellations. Solution: 1. We checked the jobs and found that Smartling did not accept them due to a validation error indicating that the batch was not suitable for adding files because its status was 'COMPLETED'. 2. We corrected an incorrect language configuration that was causing the issue. We recommend the client to send another job to see if the issue is resolved. 3. For future errors where no email notifications are received, we advise opening a new support ticket for assistance.
