stefand-43	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate an article using WPML and need to validate 100% of segments to publish the article. However, the plugin gets stuck at 98% completion. Symptoms: The WPML plugin is stuck at 98% completion when translating articles, preventing publication. This may be due to 'section breaks' that are blank but require translation. Questions: Why does the WPML plugin get stuck at 98% when translating articles? How can I resolve the issue with section breaks causing incomplete translation?

Please make a full website backup and follow these steps: Steps: 1. Click the gear icon in the top-right, inside the translation editor 2. Disable "I prefer bigger segments" 2. Enable "Use the previous version of WPML editor" Wait a few seconds to the page to reload. Make sure all fields are translated (mandatory). Let me know if after that, everything works as expected.
