Please, could you contact your web host and ask about this? They may need to add some WPML URLs in the settings whitelist. If so, add these URLs: hidden link hidden link hidden link hidden link These are the domains that WPML needs to access to install or notify the updates or even install the plugins via the Commercial tab. Let me know your results, please. NOTE: Retrieve the IPs from these URLs
