Problem: In a WooCommerce environment using WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual (WCML), the _product_image_gallery meta is stored correctly per language in the database. However, on the frontend, the gallery IDs returned by WordPress functions like get_post_meta() and $product->get_gallery_image_ids() differ from the database values. This discrepancy causes the frontend gallery to display incorrect images.
Solution: The issue arises due to the WCML_Product_Gallery_Filter::localize_image_ids filter, which modifies the _product_image_gallery during metadata retrieval. To resolve this, the client provided a custom workaround that was valid for their site, but might not be valid on other sites.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with WPML where images in product galleries are being mixed up across different language versions of the site. Each language version is supposed to have its own separate media library with localized images, but gallery images are showing up with incorrect language domains.
Solution: We recommend using the WPML Media Translation plugin to manage and localize media effectively across different languages. This plugin allows for the translation of media items, meaning different images can be used for different language versions, and it also supports localization of metadata such as filenames and URLs. If you're experiencing similar issues, ensure that the Media Translation plugin is properly configured to handle media items separately for each language. This setup should prevent the mixing of images across languages.

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where the browser tab titles, which use the placeholder %sitename% in Yoast SEO, do not display the correct sitename for translated pages. This problem affects all languages on the site and started after a recent update. Solution: We recommend updating the WPML SEO plugin to the latest version, 2.2.0, as the client currently has an outdated version, 2.1.1, which might be contributing to the issue. It is also important to ensure that the Yoast SEO plugins are updated to their latest versions.
Please check if the Blog Title has been correctly translated in WPML → String Translation. You can search for the original string and ensure the translation is added and saved properly for each language.
