This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are trying to complete translations for all pages, posts, and portfolio items on your site using WPML, but almost all pages and posts remain stuck in translation progress and never finish. The issue is identified as 'encoded-fields' where both Betheme's BeBuilder and some Elementor widgets save design data inside custom-fields or shortcode attributes that are base64-encoded, causing WPML to block the translation jobs.
Solution:
To resolve this issue, you need to register the encoded fields by either decoding or copying them. This action will allow translation jobs to be created and completed normally. For detailed guidance on how to handle encoded fields, please refer to the WPML documentation on custom fields translation options: Custom Fields Translation Options. Additionally, check if the issue persists when sending only one page to translate and try to identify which elements may contain the encoded content.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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. Should you need further assistance, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
