Hi, I'm looking for a hook that can help me tell if a post has been modified since it was last translated. For example, let's say we have a page called 'Status', and on this page, we have a paragraph about our current status, "I am well". If this gets translated and afterward I change the original page to "I am unwell". The translation is now incorrect. Is there a hook I can use to check if a translation of a page is out-of-date? Thank you, |

Hi John, There is no such hook, unfortunately. You can check the list of the hooks here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-coding-api/wpml-hooks-reference/ To create such functionality you will need custom development which is outside of our support scope, but you can consider hiring developers from the list below: Thanks. |

Thank you for your reply Christopher. It would be very helpful to me if you could explain in simple terms how WPML tells that a translation needs updating. Is there somewhere in the DB that a translation is connected to a specific version of a post? Thanks, |

Hi there, There is indeed a translation related table, but I am not aware of having a connection between a specific version of the translated page. You can learn more about the database tables used in WPML here: |

Thank you Christopher. I do appreciate you trying to help me with a very non-standard request. I will look at the link you provided and see if I can figure it out from there. I'll mark this as resolved and thanks again. John |
