[Escalated to WPML Developers team] can't edit translations. Getting an error We're sorry, but something went wrong.

Hi Joe,

Thank you for contacting WPML support, I'd be happy to help you with this issue.

I've tested to edit the translation homepage from frontend but did not see that issue. Here is the screen record
hidden link

It could be a temporary issue with ATE at that time. I also recommend completing the translation (until you see the pen icon) before making changes to the content in the English language and update the translation.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Hi,

Now I also experience this issue with the shared account. I'm asking our 2nd tier support about this and update you here when I have something to share.

Meanwhile, please edit the translation from the admin area to prevent this issue.

Thanks.

Hi,

This issue has been escalated to our development team and I will update you here once I have any information. Meanwhile, there are two workarounds to fix this issue:

1. Edit the translation from the admin area.

2. Or edit the file wp-content\plugins\sitepress-multilingual-cms\classes\filters\class-wpml-tm-translation-status-display.php, around line 430-434
- Replace

if ( ! isset( $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] ) ) {
	return null;
}

$url = remove_query_arg( $args, $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] );

with

$url = remove_query_arg( $args, admin_url('admin.php?page='. WPML_TM_FOLDER . '/menu/translations-queue.php') );

This will redirect the users to the translation queue after completing the translation.
❌ IMPORTANT: Please backup your database and website before proceeding ❌

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Hi,

I will let you know when I have any information.

Thanks.
