Problem: You created a table using TablePress, which generates a shortcode to display the table on a page. However, this shortcode does not appear in the Advanced Translator, and you are unsure how to make the shortcode translatable across different languages. Solution: We have two main recommendations if you're facing this issue: 1. The simplest approach is to create separate tables for each language and manually replace the shortcode in the translation by editing it directly in the WP editor. 2. Alternatively, you can use a single table and apply a filter to display only the columns relevant to the selected language. This method was suggested by the plugin author. For more detailed instructions and a third, more complex option, please visit the following link: https://wpml.org/errata/tablepress-tables-cant-be-translated/

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where clicking the '+' button to add a translation does not open the Advanced WPML Translator as expected, but instead opens the WordPress default editor. This occurs even though the client is using Elementor Pro, and the page appears empty without the usual translation options. Solution: We recommended checking if the WPML translation editor was inadvertently set to use the default WordPress editor for translations. This setting can be adjusted by following the steps outlined in our documentation here: Using Different Translation Editors for Different Pages. Additionally, it's important to ensure that when making changes, the client is editing from the main language page. The options to switch back to the WPML editor are typically visible only on the default language edit page.
If these steps do not resolve the issue or if the documentation does not match the version you are using, we 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.
