antonioC-92	Background of the issue: I am experiencing issues with my site hidden link where WPML seems to be keeping numerous processes open, which is blocking the server. Symptoms: 503 Service Unavailable error on some pages. Questions: Why is WPML causing a 503 error by keeping processes open? What can be done to resolve the 503 error caused by WPML?
