Problem: The client was facing an issue where the corresponding language version of an article, written by a Contributor and published by the site administrator, wasn't appearing on the front end of the website. Solution: We advised the client to check the status of the post in the backend. It was discovered that the post was in a 'pending' status because it was translated by a Contributor who does not have the permission to publish. We changed the language to Indonesian from the top admin language bar, selected the 'edit anyway' option, and changed the status from pending to published. This resolved the issue, and the post now appears correctly on the front end. We recommend avoiding the use of the Contributor role for translations and suggest using at least an Editor role.

Sin embargo, la URL para los productos en inglés no se traduce correctamente, mostrando 'producto' en lugar de 'product'.

After translating the header and footer using WPML, the header's appearance changed and the footer disappeared. Even after deleting the translations, the issue persisted.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend managing your header and footer through Elementor templates. Ensure that the theme-related custom fields are set to "Copy" in the WPML settings. Here are the specific fields you should check:
wcf-addons-template-meta_type
wcf-addons-template-meta_location
wcf-addons-template-meta_splocation
After adjusting these settings, update (resave) the Header and Footer templates in both languages. This action refreshes the translation settings and should resolve the display issues in the translated versions.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with nonsensical redirects and mixed-up hreflang tags on their multilingual website. They are unsure if WPML or another plugin is causing these redirects and are unable to effectively troubleshoot as the redirects are only visible in the Search Console. Solution: 1. Increase the WordPress memory limit to at least 256MB by adding the following line to the wp-config.php file:
Place it above the line /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */. 2. Create a full site backup or a staging site. 3. Update any outdated plugins or themes. 4. Flush any existing cache. 5. Deactivate all plugins, including WPML, and activate a default WordPress theme like Twenty Twenty. 6. Reactivate the WPML plugins. If the issue resolves, reactivate the theme and other plugins one by one to identify the culprit. 7. Check the WPML configuration for automatic redirection based on browser language, which can be found here: Automatic Redirect Based on Browser Language. Also, investigate other plugins that might create redirects, such as Yoast.

Problem: You are trying to translate the Newspaper theme's (by tagDiv) post settings using the WPML translation editor, but the translations of theme's custom fields attached to the post revert to the original language.
Solution: We have identified that the issue stems from an accompanying plugin by the theme, the tagDiv Cloud Library. To resolve this, deactivate the tagDiv Cloud Library plugin, update the translation, and then check again. This should retain the proper translated values in both the backend and frontend. If this does not resolve the issue, we recommend contacting the theme support for further assistance.
