This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is experiencing an issue with their multilingual WooCommerce site where some taxonomies are forced to be untranslatable, causing problems on their website.
Solution:
If you're facing a similar issue, we recommend trying the following steps:
1) Navigate to WPML > Settings > Taxonomy translation and ensure all related product taxonomies are set to 'Translatable - only show translated items' or 'Translatable - use translation if available or fallback to default language'. For instance, 'product_cat' (Product category) and 'product_tag' (Product tag) should be translatable.
2) Alternatively, you can override theme XML rules for specific taxonomies by checking the theme XML file in the theme root folder and changing 0 to 1 (translatable).
3) Another option is to go to the WPML -> Settings page and click the Custom XML Configuration tab. Add the taxonomy rules as per our documentation. Please see the following for details:
We highly recommend using method #1, which is straightforward and does not interfere with the theme's default configurations.
