[Waiting for user feedback] Editing translations on pages are not showing on front-end when editing via "Edit Translations"
This is the technical support forum for WPML - the multilingual WordPress plugin.

Elementor users - please update WPML to the latest version to maintain compatibility. More details here - https://wpml.org/changelog/2024/12/wpml-4-6-15-critical-update-for-elementor-sites/
It's working when I login as the "wpml-support" user, but not when I login as another admin user. How do I get it to work for any of the wp admin users that login and want to make a text edit to this same page or any other of the French pages?
For example, you logged in under "wpml-support" and made changes. When I just logged in under "mweber@mlwmarketing.com" I'm getting a popup message that says "Translation in progress - wait before editing". see screenshot. Is there another step that needs to be made so other users don't see this popup message and can see the same screen that the "wpml-support" user sees?
I checked, my account is set as a translator with the correct language pairs.
I cleared the site, server, and browser cache and it's still showing the popup message "Translation in progress - wait before editing". Also on the pop message it says "It's best to wait until translation completes, then edit and update the translation.
Waiting for translators...". see screenshot.
Is there another step that needs to be made that completes the translation after making the edits to the Lead Blankets page?
1- Go to WPML-> Translation Management
2- Select the "Lead Blankets" page
3- Select Assign to a translator
4- Go to the Translation Basket tab
5- Send it to translation (First Available)
6- Go to WPML-> Translations
7- Click Translate/Edit to open the editor
8- Complete the translation
9- Click the complete button if you don't see any empty segment even if it's not 100%
I did these steps while logged in as "mweber@mlwmarketing.com". After clicking the "Edit" button under actions I get the same screen that I've been seeing. The progress bar at the bottom is saying 91% and above the "Complete Translation" button it still says it wants me to "Save all sentences before finishing". It won't let me click the "Complete Translation" because it's saying "Save all sentences before finishing".
Would you like to login as my admin user account so you can see what I'm seeing?
I checked and it now says 100% and doesn't say "Save all sentences before finishing" any more but it's not showing my edit on the front end. See video.
Good catch. That worked but I had to save the actual page after clicking "Complete Translation". Which is fine but it redirected me to the front end page then I had to go to edit page and click save. Is there an easier way to save the page after clicking "Complete Translation"?
Also, I tried to save another change on the same page after the first one worked, when it redirected me to the front end of the page after clicking "Complete Translation" I got a Bad Gateway error. Do you know what is causing this? See video.
Now the Bad Gateway error is not showing up. It's not the first time this has happened, let me know your thought regarding those errors.
I'm am now able to make changes to the Lead Blankets French page, save them and see the changes on the front end.
So I'm super clear on all the steps for being able to make changes to any of the other page can you please create a video that includes all the steps you outlined so it's editable like the Lead Blankets page. Then I can easily follow the steps moving forward and not have to bug you guys. I can then share that video with the other admins as well.
