This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is trying to set different prices for the same product in different languages on their WooCommerce site without using a multi-currency setup. They are unsure if the WPML Custom Fields Translation settings are sufficient for this purpose.

Solution:
We advised the client to check if any other plugins might be affecting the pricing since WPML typically does not support different prices for the same product in different languages without a multi-currency setup. We suggested reviewing the settings and possibly disabling other plugins that might interfere with WPML's functionality. For further assistance, we requested temporary access to the site to investigate the issue more thoroughly.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also 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. For further assistance, please visit our support forum at https://wpml.org/forums/.

Background of the issue:
I am trying to set different prices for products in another language on my site hidden link. I have configured settings in WPML under Custom Fields Translation.
hidden link

Should this not take care of it?

Symptoms:
I am unsure if the settings I configured in WPML are sufficient to achieve different prices in another language.

Questions:
Is there still no way to make price different in another language (not different currency)?
Should the settings in WPML Custom Fields Translation take care of setting different prices in another language?

I have another question regarding this.

I did not apply any of your solutions and I now see prices are not the same in different languages?

Price here is 24,90 eur

Price of the same product on HR is 19,99 eur

how can that be if you said this is not possible?

Hi there.

Have any changes been made on the site since the last time we talked?

Were there any plugins or changes in the multi-currency settings?

There's a chance the currency settings are set as explained here, and maybe this is what's giving a lower price in a different language:

I did install a plugin you mentioned "woocommerce product price based on countries" but it's disabled as now I am confused. Looks like this can be done without it.

Otherwise I'm not using multicurrency, just EUR for all languages.

Same issue here
SI
price 299, sale price 269

Translation is synced

Chair spartacus also has different prices

HR

Not sure how that can be. I wanted that in the first place but you said it was not possible. I still want it but obvioulsy I want control over it. Right now I can't even change the price to be the same as original.

Timeline was this:
Both prices were 299 eur.
SI (original) price was then lowered to 279 eur but the price on HR remained the same.
I even changed the title updated, changed it back so I could update translation.

Hi, and thank you for the credentials.

I can confirm that I was able to log in successfully.

Yes, I understand that you want full control over the price, but that shouldn't be possible with WPML due to how WordPress and WooCommerce function, so I strongly feel that this is caused by (at least) a different active plugin.

I am spending more time on this and will get back to you as soon as I have more feedback.

I will leave the ticket assigned to myself for now.

this has been dragging on for too long, my client is killing me so now I just used the plugin (Price Based on Country for WooCommerce) to fix all the prices.

Hi there.

Yes, and I am sorry for this but situations like this require more investigation especially when something is happening due to a different source.

Is this plugin that you mentioned doing exactly what you wanted?

Does it help you accomplish your goal?
