Background of the issue:
I am trying to sync product categories hierarchy among languages on my site hidden link using WPML. Previously, I did this in Woocommerce Multilingual and Multicurrency, but after the latest update, I cannot find where to do this. Also earlier the plugin warned me that some things were out of sync.
Symptoms:
I cannot find where to sync product categories hierarchy among languages after the latest WPML update.
Questions:
Where can I find the option to sync product categories hierarchy among languages in the latest WPML update?
Actually I found where the Woocommerce Multilingual options were moved, and I managed to update the hierarchy, but still the warning on the top was missing, that was really useful. THank you

Hello,
I am glad to hear that you were able to help yourself, but I am not sure if I understand you correctly.
Do you currently still see the dashboard notification, even after having run all the taxonomy hierarchy synchronization?
The banner notification should usually guide you exactly where you need to go if you click its links.
Did you revise all possible tasks?
You will find these options at WPML > Taxonomy Translations. Select "Product Categories" and then go to the tab for taxonomy hierarchy synchronization.
Take note, that in some cases this task needs to be run for different languages (dropdown).
"Do you currently still see the dashboard notification, even after having run all the taxonomy hierarchy synchronization?"
Actually the contrary, initially I was confused as I did not see some categories published in secondary languages, that was because the banner never appeared, and I never actually sync the categories hierarchy, I don't know why but the banner was not appearing as usual after the latest update.
Thanks
