At the moment, you can only record debug logs in <strong>WPML&#8217;s Translation Dashboard <\/strong>and <strong>Advanced Translation Editor<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Can I Share Debug Logs with Supporters?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To share debug logs with supporters, you first need to enable the logging feature and retry the action causing the issue in WPML.
