Background of the issue:
I added a glossary item in WPML and attempted to update the content using the existing WPML glossary item. I clicked 'Update existing translations' to ensure all terms are updated. The issue can be seen on the following pages: hidden link and hidden link.
Symptoms:
Some terms were updated while others remained unchanged. I expected to see 'オカダ・マニラ' but instead got 'Okada Manila'.
Questions:
Why are some terms not updating after adding a glossary item?
How can I ensure all terms are updated correctly using WPML?
May this be the reason for those translations not being updated? If that's the case, try this:
To update glossary terms in older translations, resend your content for translation via WPML → Translation Management. Remember that this translation method consumes credits.
