WPML can't be reset to factory settings and I get database error (The documentation about factory reset on your site doesn't work)

Hi there,

are you attempting to do a RESET? What are your results when going to WPML->Supportt->Troubleshooting-> RESET WPML

NOTE: Do not do a WPML RESET unless you are ok with removing all work done up until now with WPML. This action will remove all translation work and cannot be undone.

Hi, I think the documentation on resetting wpml on your website is outdated. I've corrected the situation, but I want to ask something different. When I translate with WPML String Translation, how can I reflect this to Advanced Translation Editor?

For example, I want to see the translation I made over String Translation in the Advanced Translation Editor.

Are you referring to this documentation? I will let our team know.

https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/deleting-languages-and-plugin-data-by-doing-a-wpml-reset-on-your-site/#:~:text=Go%20to%20WPML%20%E2%86%92%20Support,Reset%20and%20deactivate%20WPML%20button.

Regarding the string translation please review this documentation:
https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/#translating-strings

"Click the checkboxes next to strings and select the languages from the list. If you are the only translator on the site, click Translate selected content and finish translating from WPML → Translations. If you use other translators or a professional translation service, you can add the strings to the translation basket."

"Assign the translation job to yourself or a local translator to translate the strings using the Advanced Translation Editor. "
