Problem: If you're experiencing issues where your Translation Dashboard continuously reloads after enabling the WPML Advanced Editor, it might be due to a Content Security Policy (CSP) blocking a necessary WPML script. This blockage prevents the dashboard from loading properly. Solution: We recommend checking where your CSP is configured, which could be in Cloudflare, a security plugin, or your server settings. You need to allow
https://ams.wpml.org
under script-src and, ideally, also under connect-src in your CSP settings. This adjustment should resolve the issue with the dashboard.

Problem: The client reported an issue where deleted glossary terms were still being "cached" and applied in translations, despite being removed from the glossary. Solution: We advised the client to ensure that the content was not coming from a template but directly from the product content itself. After confirming that the section was indeed added via a template, the client was able to edit the relevant file and retranslate the string. This resolved the issue, and the glossary terms were applied correctly after retranslation. If you're experiencing similar issues, we recommend checking if the content is coming from a template and ensuring that all strings are sent for translation through the Translation Dashboard.

Problem: The client reported multiple PHP warnings and a WordPress database error related to the WPML String Translation plugin and database operations. Solution: We identified that the issues are associated with a known bug in WPML version 4.9. We recommend reverting to the previous stable versions of WPML and WPML String Translation until the issue is resolved in the upcoming 4.9.1 release. We have implemented this solution on the staging site, and it appears to resolve the errors. Please verify on your end and contact us if the problem persists or if new issues arise.

Problem: The client was unable to use the Advanced Translation Editor for a page that was originally translated using the Classic Translation Editor. Solution: We reviewed the client's settings and enabled the option in WPML → Settings:
"Use also for old translations created with the classic editor"
. This allowed the page to open correctly in the Advanced Translation Editor and the translation to load properly. We asked the client to clarify any specific issues they were still facing.

Problem: If you're experiencing issues with Elementor translations where links are not displayed correctly in some language versions, despite being set up correctly in the ATE editor, you're not alone. Solution: We recommend re-sending the content to automatic translation. This should resolve the issue with the incorrect display of links in translations. Here's an example of how you might add the problematic paragraph text in English before translation to German using PTC engine:
<p>As soon as your supply starts to dwindle, you can start a new cultivation project. For example, make new <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="https://acidshroomz.com/how-to-make-rye-grain-spawn/">mushroom spawn</a></strong></span>, or directly grow a new batch of mushrooms in a <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><strong><a href="https://acidshroomz.com/grow-magic-mushrooms-monotub/">monotub</a></strong></span> if you already have spawn available. This way, you are always well-stocked.</p>
