Problem: The client inquired about WPML's compatibility with the new Performant Translations feature that will be included in the upcoming WordPress 6.5 update, which aims to improve website performance with translations. Solution: We always ensure that WPML is compatible with major WordPress core updates. We have already tested WPML with the Performant Translations feature and found that it indeed improves site performance when using WPML. If you're experiencing issues or have concerns about compatibility, we recommend checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
Please note that the solution provided might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If you encounter any problems, we encourage you to open a new support ticket. For further assistance, you can reach out to us on the WPML support forum.
Problem: Der Kunde möchte, dass Übersetzer die Seiten und Beiträge anderer Übersetzer übersetzen können. Dies ist standardmäßig nicht möglich und die bisherigen Lösungen im Forum sind nicht update-sicher oder nachhaltig. Der Kunde verwendet das Plugin "Members", um benutzerdefinierte Rollen zu erstellen, und sucht nach einer Lösung, die es Übersetzern mit eingeschränkten Rollen ermöglicht, Übersetzungen anderer zu aktualisieren. Lösung: Wir haben bestätigt, dass es derzeit keine Lösung gibt, die über eine Child Theme's
functions.php
Datei implementiert werden kann. Wir haben jedoch in unserer Entwicklungs-Warteschlange gesehen, dass dieses Problem möglicherweise in der nächsten Version 4.6.9 von WPML behoben wird. Wir empfehlen, auf dieses Update zu warten, da es den gewünschten Mehrwert bieten könnte.
Wenn diese Lösung nicht relevant erscheint, öffnen Sie bitte ein neues Support-Ticket im WPML-Supportforum.
2. Create a new page and add the lazyblock with the necessary information, including the link. 3. Save and translate the page to the desired language. 4. In the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE), the URL should automatically set to the translated version. 5. Translate the remaining content and complete the translation. 6. The link should now point to the translated version of the page in the new language.
However, if you encounter a limitation where the URL inside the block attribute does not adjust automatically, you will need to translate the links manually in the Advanced Translation Editor.
Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If the issue persists, we highly recommend checking related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
Problem:
Der Klient schlug vor, ein SVG-Symbol anstelle des aktuellen PNG-Symbols für das WP-Admin-Menü zu verwenden und lieferte eine detaillierte Lösung, wie dies umgesetzt werden könnte.
Solution:
Wir haben den Vorschlag des Klienten als Feature Request an unser Entwicklungsteam weitergeleitet. Wir hatten bereits die Möglichkeit, SVG-Symbole zu verwenden, in Betracht gezogen und es besteht die Möglichkeit, dass dies in zukünftigen Versionen von WPML implementiert wird. Wir danken dem Klienten für das Feedback.
Problem: The client is trying to set up a custom role for site editors to manage translations without giving them super admin permissions. They have used the User Role Editor plugin to configure the role but are unable to see the edit button for translations in the backend or frontend, despite following the steps in the provided documentation and ensuring all checkboxes are enabled. Solution: We recommend updating WPML to the latest version, as this issue has been addressed in version 4.6.9. Before updating, ensure to create a complete backup of the site. For more details on the issue and the fix, please refer to the errata page:
Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where users with custom roles are unable to edit specific posts/pages that were translated by another user. They have tried using the Custom Role Editor plugin and creating custom roles programmatically, but the issue persists. They have also tried using code from the WPML forums to enable the editor role to translate, but it only works for default WordPress roles, not custom ones.
Solution: We recommend updating to the latest version of WPML, as this issue should be resolved in version 4.6.9. Before updating, ensure to have a complete backup of your site. You can find more information about this issue on our errata page:

Problem: The client is experiencing accessibility issues with the language switcher on their website, as indicated by the PageSpeed Insights test. Solution: We acknowledge an existing internal development ticket regarding this issue, but we cannot provide a specific timeline for its resolution. We suggest adding an
aria-label
attribute with a descriptive name to the language switcher link to improve accessibility, like so:
<a href="https://www.spotix.app/he/spots/..." class="wpml-ls-link" aria-label="Descriptive Name of the Link"></a>
Additionally, we recommend checking the following documentation for a potential workaround regarding missing alt tags for flag images in the language switcher: Missing alt tag for flag image in a language switcher
