We’re continuing to work on WPML 4.6, but in the meantime, we wanted to help clients experiencing issues with the Advanced Translation Editor by releasing some important fixes as soon as possible. This update also includes completely new and improved Translation Queue and Translation Jobs tables.

Since publishing this post, we released WPML 4.5.10 to fix a bug related to using Classic Widgets for specific languages and WPML 4.5.11 as a security patch update. Be sure to update to the latest version for the best experience with WPML.

Fixes for the Advanced Translation Editor

We decided to release this update to fix various issues that could appear when using the Advanced Translation Editor. WPML 4.5.9 includes fixes to the following issues:

  • Translations get stuck and the troubleshooting logs state, “Started attempt to download XLIFF file. The process did not finish,” and, “The uploaded XLIFF file doesn’t belong to this system.”
  • New translation jobs are created whenever you open a completed translation job in the Advanced Translation Editor
  • Translation jobs open in the WordPress native editor when they should open in the Advanced Translation Editor
  • Translation jobs are created with invalid job ID
  • Translation jobs are stuck in the Pending Review status
  • When using Translate Everything with a lot of attachments, the Translation Management Dashboard gets stuck on Calculating…
  • You get an error message, WPML didn’t manage to translate, when the user doesn’t have a valid username and email in their profile (however, we are still working on a similar issue when the user is a site admin)
  • After site migration or changing the site URL, the site action notice doesn’t appear.

See our full changelog for all the bug fixes included in this release.

Improved Translation Queue and Translation Jobs Tables

With this release, you’ll notice better filtering and more details in the Translation Queue and Jobs tables.

Translations Queue

You can access the Translation Queue by going to WPMLTranslations. This shows content that is available to your user for translation or review.
