Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate the header and footer section of my site, hidden link, into Chinese using WPML. I have attempted to use the string translation feature.
Symptoms:
The string translation does not allow translation of the header and footer sections. The 'Select translation options' is not working in string translation.
Questions:
How can I translate the header and footer sections using WPML?
Why is the Select translation options not working in string translation?
When I go to the WPML > Translation and try to translate the templates with the WPML Translation Editor, it just show me an empty page with nothing to edit. Why might that be the case?
Could you please increase the WordPress memory limit (WP Memory Limit) to at least 256 MB? WPML requires at least 128M.
Your current values are:
PHP MemoryLimit 2048M
WP Memory Limit 40M
You need to connect to your website's server and open the wp-config.php file in a text editor. The file is located in the WordPress root directory.
Add this code to the wp-config.php file to increase WordPress memory:
define ('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
Add this just before this comment:
// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.
The current values can be viewed under WPML > Support > WordPress.
These settings can be restricted directly by your hosting provider. Therefore, I recommend contacting them and asking them to change them directly if the changes are not applied immediately.
If adjusting the limit will not solve the issue, please let me know and I will be glad to investigate this issue further.
