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

Problem:
The client is experiencing an issue where only a part of the translated content is visible on the frontend of their website, despite having fully translated the pages using the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE). This problem started occurring recently, even though everything was functioning correctly until two days ago.
Solution:
We recommend checking the current memory usage in your WordPress setup. You can find this under WPML > Support > PHP. If the WordPress memory limit (WP Memory Limit) is close to or above 128M, it should be increased to at least 256 MB. To do this:
1. Connect to your website's server and open the

wp-config.php

file located in the WordPress root directory.
2. Add the following line of code to increase the memory limit:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

Place this line just before the comment:

// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.

3. If you are unable to change these settings, contact your hosting provider as they might need to adjust these settings directly.
4. After increasing the memory limit, edit the original content of the page using Elementor, save the changes, and then reapply the translations in the WPML Translation Editor.
If the issue persists after following these steps, it might be due to other reasons. We 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. If the problem still exists, please open a new support ticket for further assistance.

Background of the issue:
I translated several pages completely with ATE:

Screenshot
hidden link

Video:
hidden link

Example page:
hidden link.

Symptoms:
Only a part of the translation is showing in the frontend instead of the fully translated page.
In this example only the adress instead of the full legal notice is showing up.

Questions:
Why is only part of the translation showing in the frontend?
How can I ensure the full translation appears on the page?

Everything worked fine till two days ago, but now I can't work on any translation anymore.

Hello,

Could you please take a look at WPML > Support > PHP and verify if the current memory usage is close to or above 128M?

If so, you will need to increase the WordPress memory limit (WP Memory Limit) to at least 256 MB.

Your current values ​​are:

PHP Memory Limit 512 MB
WP Memory Limit 128 MB

To do this, you need to connect to your website's server and open the wp-config.php file in a text editor. The file is located in the WordPress root directory.

Add this code to the wp-config.php file to increase WordPress memory:

define ('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

Add this just before this comment:

// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.

The current values ​​can be viewed under WPML > Support > WordPress.

These settings can be restricted directly by your hosting provider. Therefore, I recommend contacting them and asking them to change the settings directly if the changes are not implemented immediately.

After adjusting the limit, please edit the original content of the page in Elementor, save the page, and then apply the translations again inside the WPML Translation Editor.

If this does not solve the issue, please let me know.

Best regards,
Andreas
