I am getting a critical error when the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin is active.
I still did not update to WordPress 6.1.1. because of some critical issues with WPML.
1) Please update all WPML plugins to the latest version by going to the Plugins → Add New page, click the Commercial tab, and then click Check for updates.
2) Can you please enable WP debug log as explained in the next docs and share with us more info and the error message you get when the critical error appears?
This would help us know what is the problem and suggest the correct steps to fix the problem.
In addition to this one, I got yesterday late afternoon an email from WordPress while recreating the issue through the staging website:

So... I have noticed that in the wp-content/plugins folder I hade the following two classes: class-wpml-ls-model-build 1.php
/class-wpml-ls-model-build-2.php
I have delete "WPML Multilingual CMS" and uploaded manually the latest version form WPML.org>Downloads. I activate the plugin again, followed the workaround you suggested and now the website doesn't go down and is stable.
Anyway the problem with horizontal list language switcher still persists!
I do not understand why...
glad to hear the issue has been resolved, regarding the language switcher, our team is going to be implementing this workaround into the next release of WPML, however, if the workaround is not working we might need to review this further.
I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to test the issue.
(preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible)
**Before we proceed It is necessary to take FULL BACKUP of your database and your website. Providing us with access, you agree that a backup has been taken **
I often use the Duplicator plugin for this purpose: http://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply.
The information you enter is private which means only you and I have access to it.
NOTE: If access to the live site is not possible and the staging site does not exist please provide me with a duplicator package created with the duplicator plugin.
When I review the staging site I can see it's working ok.
You are not able to use the switcher as it points to the live site but if you visit the different domains separately you will see that the switcher does not change order.
Hi,
I tried to open the staging site using another browser and cleaning the cache, but I still see the language switcher changes order.
Do you think maybe is related to the fact that I have still not update to WordPress 6.1.1?
At the moment I am not able to view the site as the credentials are not working for me to share a screenshot with you of what I see, but last I test I could not reproduce the issue.
If possible update the access and also share a screencast of how you are reproducing this issue as I was not able to anymore. Also test in an incognito window.
