vadimP	Hi 🙂 We discussed this issue with Elementor support in detail and the last conclusion was that this issue is “a global WordPress indexing issue rather than an Elementor-specific bug, as the post is also unretrievable via the default WP-Admin search for Posts and Pages; Elementor is simply reflecting this underlying core search failure.” Here's the description of the original problem in a google doc. versteckter Link Here are two screen recordings showing the exact issue: versteckter Link versteckter Link At this point it seem like there’s a problem somewhere between WP and WPML in terms of returning the correct results in search and the issue seems to be related to translations specifically. And, importantly, the problem is not 100% reliable, as the doc above indicates. Sometimes this problem can be fixed by relentlessly retrying and if you’re lucky, the right translated post will show up. But, this is, as far as I can tell, almost luck, as nothing from our side seems to directly affect the outcome. Not cache clearing, not permalinks resaving, nothing. It seems random (though I know it probably isn’t - just seems like it to us). Hopefully you can help? In the next message I can provide access info. Thanks.

Hi 🙂

We discussed this issue with Elementor support in detail and the last conclusion was that this issue is “a global WordPress indexing issue rather than an Elementor-specific bug, as the post is also unretrievable via the default WP-Admin search for Posts and Pages; Elementor is simply reflecting this underlying core search failure.”

Here's the description of the original problem in a google doc. versteckter Link

Here are two screen recordings showing the exact issue:

At this point it seem like there’s a problem somewhere between WP and WPML in terms of returning the correct results in search and the issue seems to be related to translations specifically. And, importantly, the problem is not 100% reliable, as the doc above indicates. Sometimes this problem can be fixed by relentlessly retrying and if you’re lucky, the right translated post will show up. But, this is, as far as I can tell, almost luck, as nothing from our side seems to directly affect the outcome. Not cache clearing, not permalinks resaving, nothing.
