Background of the issue:
I created a new CPT and taxonomies, and I've set them to Translatable in the WPML -> Settings. I am trying to change the slug for these CPT and taxonomies.

Symptoms:
Every time I try to set a new slug and save, it is not saved. I've tried saving the permalinks, but it still doesn't work.

Questions:
Why is the new slug for my CPT and taxonomies not being saved?
Is there a specific step I am missing in the WPML settings to change the slug?

Thank you for contacting WPML support.

Can you please provide screenshots to demonstrate the issue? Additionally, could you explain the process of creating the Custom Post Type (CPT) and taxonomies? Have you tried deactivating all plugins except WPML to see if the issue persists?

The CPT and taxonomies are created in PHP using the register_post_type and register_taxonomy functions.

I didn't try to deactivate every plugins since it is my live site.
But I quickly did it during night time, and suddenly, everything started working, even after reactivating the plugins.

That is weird, but working.

Thanks for your support

I'm glad to hear that it's working now. I was happy to help even if it started to work suddenly 🙂 Have a great day!
