Problem:
Contact Form 7 forms disappeared after WPML plugin activation
Solution:
I've increased memory limit allocated to WordPress (it was below our minimum requirements https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements):
https://wordpress.org/support/article/editing-wp-config-php/#increasing-memory-allocated-to-php

And I have also performed all the troubleshooting functions:

- WPML - > Support -> Troubleshooting:
-- Clear the cache in WPML
-- Set language information
-- Fix terms count
-- Fix post type assignment for translations

Problem:

I get the error icl_string_packages' doesn't exist, if I turn on the debug.

Solution:

1. Export the structure of the table from another website.

2. Change the prefix of the table name if it is different.

3. Import it to the site where this table is missing.

You can use this MYSQL code. You should save this code in a file that ends with .sql and then you should import it into your DB. Or you can implement it as an SQL command.

Problem:
How to translate the7 retina logo? or how to change the7 retina logo in second language?

Solution:
Make sure you copy the “wpml-config.xml” from the parent theme to your child theme, make sure it is up-to-dated. After that make sure you follow this https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-theme-options/ make sure this value is “header-logo_hd” translatable.

Problem: The latest version of Divi (June 6th 2019) seems to no longer has the search bar compatible with WPML (it always redirect you to the search page of the default language)

Solution: Please use this workaround in the meantime we release a new WPML update for it:
Add the following hook: https://wpml.org/wpml-hook/wpml_add_language_form_field/ to your theme's header.php file in line 158 and 323.

Problem:
How to define or set different fonts as per the language?

Solution:
Use this format:

h1:lang(ckb), h2:lang(ckb), h3:lang(ckb), h4:lang(ckb), h5:lang(ckb), h6:lang(ckb) { 
  font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif !important;
}
p:lang(ckb) { font-family: Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif !important; }

Change CKB to the language code you want to use.
