Background of the issue:
I translated a page using WPML. I am experiencing issues with the translation process. The translation seems incomplete as indicated by the gear icon, even though I clicked 'complete'. The issue is visible on this page: hidden link
Symptoms:
The translation appears incomplete with the gear icon still showing. In the front end, I can select German, but the text displayed is completely different from what was expected.
Questions:
Why does the gear icon still show even after clicking 'complete'?
Why is the text in German different from what was expected?
Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.
First of all, sorry for the late reply; it was due to a higher workload.
I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.
Your answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.
❌ Please backup your database and website ❌
✙ I need your permission to deactivate and reactivate the plugins and themes and change site configurations. This is also why the backup is critical.
✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.
