This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client operates a multi-site with instances in four languages and uses WooCommerce. They want to switch to WPML to simplify management but need to know how to export and import language data that isn't initially created with WPML.
Solution:
We recommend using WordPress's export feature to export the content and then using the WPML Import/Export Plugin for importing it into another site. Since the content isn’t linked as translations, it won’t automatically import as translations. To link the imported content as translations, you can:
1. Before Import: Export the content from all sites and manually add language information to the exported data. More details on preparing the data can be found here: Preparing Import Files for WPML Export and Import.
2. After Import: Link the pages and posts after the import by following the steps here: How to Link Already Translated Pages.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, please check the related known issues at WPML Known Issues, verify the version of the permanent fix, and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. We highly recommend opening a new support ticket if further assistance is needed. You can do so here: WPML Support Forum.
