Problem: If you're experiencing a 404 error on your WooCommerce category page due to a compatibility issue with Rank Math, it might be related to the 'Remove parent slugs' option or incorrect slug translations for different languages.

A temporary fix can be found in our errata: https://wpml.org/errata/rank-math-seo-remove-parent-slugs-option-causes-category-slug-translation-error-404/ 2. If the issue persists, you may need to adjust the slug translations: - Navigate to WPML > Settings > Slug translations and ensure it is enabled. - Go to WPML > Taxonomy Translation > Product Categories and check the slug translations for each language. - Ensure that the slug translations are either blank or a copy of the original WordPress settings: 'product-category'. 3. If you have modified the Rank Math plugin files as a workaround, ensure to update the slug translations accordingly.

Problem: The client is facing an issue where the automatic currency conversion rate update is not working as expected on their website. They are concerned about potential conflicts due to having over 40 plugins installed. Solution: We recommend the following steps to troubleshoot and resolve the issue: 1) Ensure that WooCommerce and WCML are updated to the latest versions. Before making any changes, take a full backup of your website and database. 2) Deactivate all plugins except for WPML, String Translation, WCML, and WooCommerce. 3) Switch to a standard theme, such as Twenty Twenty-Four or Twenty Twenty-One. 4) Check if the issue still occurs. 5) Reactivate the plugins one by one, checking for the issue after each activation to identify any conflicts. 6) If the issue does not reappear after all plugins are activated, switch back to your original theme to check if it is the cause. Additionally, consider that cron jobs require time to run, typically scheduled every 24 hours. You can use cron manager plugins from WordPress.org to manage and test cron jobs. For further debugging, enable WPML's debugging feature as described at https://wpml.org/documentation/support/debugging-wpml/ and monitor the /wp-content/debug.log file for any errors during the cron job execution.

Problem: The client was experiencing mixed content issues when translating the 'admin_texts_astra-settings' domain, where translations were replacing the original English text with Spanish on their website. Solution: The client resolved the issue before the WPML support team could provide a solution. However, if you're experiencing similar issues, we recommend setting up a staging website to test translations thoroughly before applying them to the live site. This approach helps identify and fix translation issues without affecting the live environment.
