This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client was unable to use the WPML translation editor to translate a page from Italian to English using Elementor. The content did not appear, and the page continued to load without showing the original content in the fields for translation.
Solution:
We recommended the client to:
1. Ensure that Elementor widgets are registered for translation as explained in our documentation: Registering Custom Elementor Widgets for Translation.
2. If the issue persists, we provided a series of SQL queries to clean up invalid records from the database and reset auto-increment values. The client should:
- Make sure to have a complete database backup.
- Run the following SQL queries to delete invalid records:
DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_mo_files_domains` WHERE id = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_strings` WHERE id = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_string_packages` WHERE ID = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_string_positions` WHERE id = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_string_translations` WHERE id = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_translate` WHERE tid = 0;<br />DELETE FROM `wp_borgo23_icl_translate_job` WHERE job_id = 0;
- If no errors occur, run the following queries to alter tables:
SET sql_mode = '';<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_flags` CHANGE `id` `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_languages` CHANGE `id` `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_languages_translations` CHANGE `id` `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_mo_files_domains` CHANGE `id` `id` INT NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_strings` CHANGE `id` `id` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_string_packages` CHANGE `ID` `ID` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_string_positions` CHANGE `id` `id` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_string_translations` CHANGE `id` `id` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_translate` CHANGE `tid` `tid` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;<br />ALTER TABLE `wp_borgo23_icl_translate_job` CHANGE `job_id` `job_id` BIGINT UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT;
- After running the queries successfully, edit the homepage with Elementor, make a minor change, update, and then attempt to translate again.
