Problem: If you've installed the OTGS installer and the WPML plugin, but the setup page appears blank and the configuration doesn't start, this might indicate a specific issue with your website or server environment rather than a general WPML problem. Solution: We recommend checking if other core WordPress functionalities, such as the WordPress Site Health > Info page, are also failing to load. If they are, it suggests that the problem lies with a core WordPress function, specifically
got_url_rewrite()
, which WPML also relies on. This issue is likely specific to your server or environment. Please contact your hosting provider to resolve any underlying issues with this function. Once resolved, try loading the WPML setup page again. If the problem persists, please contact us for further assistance.
