nathanO-5	Background of the issue: I cannot access the translation management menu anymore after the recent WPML update. I get redirected to a 404 page when clicking on the WPML menu button. Symptoms: Error message: 'You do not have permission to view this page'. Questions: Why can't I access the translation management menu after the WPML update? How can I resolve the permission error and 404 page issue?

Please try updating the WPML plugins using the fresh downloaded copies by following these instructions: 1. Download the latest version of WPML from https://wpml.org/account/downloads/. 2. Disable the WPML plugins. 3. Delete them (Note: Your settings and translations will remain intact in the database and will not be deleted). 4. Upload the newly downloaded WPML plugins by navigating to Plugins -> Add New -> Upload Plugin. 5. Activate the WPML plugins. Before you proceed, please ensure you make a full backup of your website.
