Thanks for contacting us. I've checked your Website, and it looks like you're facing some cache issues, as shown in the attached screenshot. I hope you're aware of that.

As for the "blocking http api calls" issue, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to a test site where the problem has been replicated, if possible. This will enable me to provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.

Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.

Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me.

✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.

Thanks for your reply. I've checked and I'm not seeing any issues with the translations or the functionality of the WPML plugin. May I know why you would want to disable the ATE api or WPML calls?
