Problem:
I am trying to access Category from the WordPress Admin Dashboard.
WordPress Admin Dashboard -> Post -> Category.
Result: Critical error on the website. Please see the attached screenshot.
Workaround : Disable WPML Multilanguage CMS plugin, then I can access the Post -> Category.
Note: This is my sandbox website. Problem exist on both my production and sandbox website. Solution:
This a known issue which generally it is solved by deleting a certain entry in the options table of the database.
Problem:
A blank screen appears and after enabling debug mode, the following error appears in some configurations:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: element_id and type do not match in \wp-content\plugins\sitepress-multilingual-cms\classes\core-abstract-classes\class-wpml-set-language.php on line xx
Problem:
The client was unable to translate one menu item.
Solution:
That menu item "Kids" was being displayed using Menu Custom Links on the website. After synchronizing the menu from the WPML >> Menu Sync page, you should be able to translate it from WPML >> String Translation page.
Gravity form is not showing translation. I translated my forms using the instructions on the site, but one is not showing translated versions on this page.
Solution:
The shortcode attribute with the value of "false" was translated into other languages, and this caused the problem. This attribute's value should not be translated. So I switched it to "false" in all the languages. And now, the translated forms are shown on the front end.
If you are using a custom theme or plugin, you can contact the theme or plugin developer and confirm if the texts are translatable. If they are, you can then visit our page about finding strings that don't appear in String Translation. This page includes step-by-step text and video tutorials about translating different types of strings.
Problem:
When I click the language to translate, always sends me to Translations queue.
Solution:
- Update WPML plugins to the latest ones. And any other plugin and theme if needed.
- Make sure you are added as a translator with correct pairs in WPML -> Translation Management -> Translators. Your user must have First Name, Last Name and Emails filled correctly in the profile.
Problem:
Hello, I have installed WPLM and I'm testing it to translate an article. I noticed that the WP Recipe Maker card is not being translated. In the editor, I can see that it is translated, but when I preview it, it is not. If I choose to translate everything automatically, can I select only the most famous articles? Do you offer a trial so I can see how it will look on my blog? I had used GTranslate before, and my blog was translated into English in every detail. Now I'm not sure what to do. Can you help me? Thank you. Solution: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/help-3/#post-13925413 Relevant Documentation: https://wpml.org/plugin/wp-recipe-maker/
The CSS for that color is dynamic and managed with ACF; the admin can pick a color from the dashboard. But it is not working for the second language.
Solution:
It looks like you create an ACF Options page for those CSS settings. Please follow our guide on translating option pages. You should be able to correct this issue by switching to the new PT language.
If you are using the Site Editor, you can add menus to your template or template parts, like the Header or Footer using the Navigation block.
To translate the menu, you first need to send your template or template part for translation. You then need to send the Navigation Menu block for translation via the Translation Management Dashboard. This allows you to use the Advanced Translation Editor to translate the links so they point to the translations of your menu items.
Problem:
The client wanted to translate his logo but he couldn't find the logo URL in "WPML > String Translation"
Solution:
In this particular case, the logo was added by a theme option (Astra theme).
- First, go to the media library to get the IDs of your different logos
- Then go to "WPML > String Translation > Translate texts in admin screens" and search for the ID in the main language
- Add 'site_logo' to "String Translation"
- Last translated ID in String Translation
Problem:
After I added Vietnamese to my site, the site gets automatically redirected to the second language. Even when I delete /vi/ manually from the URL, it gets added again.
Solution:
Vietnamese was accidentally set as the default language of the site by another user.
