Hi, This ticket has been inactive for quite a while. I didn't get a reply from you. So, I've transformed this chat into a support ticket because you may still need our help. Can you please share the fatal error you got? Also, the debug info you attached shows that your server's WP Memory Limit is 40M. Our recommendations are to have the following as minimal requirements: - PHP 7 and above (this OK with your installation) with a WP Memory Limit of at least 128MB while 256MB is recommended. MySQL 5.6 and above. Please follow this link for detailed documentation: https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/ Is it possible for you to change those to the minimum requirement? You may need to contact your hosting provider for that. Meeting those baseline requirements is critical before debugging and sometimes solves issues you experience. The most important thing is to raise the WP Memory Limit. Please try to raise it before you contact your hosting company. You can do it from the wp-config.php file in your WordPress installation. Insert this code in that file: /** Memory Limit */ define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M'); define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' ); Add it before this line: /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */ Could you please perform that procedure and see if it helps? Regards, |

Thank you for your response and for converting this into a support ticket. I appreciate your suggestions. However, the issue persists even after making the recommended changes. debug.log [06-Apr-2025 21:00:11 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: Unknown format specifier "Ø" in /home/coi7xq4ukqn0/public_html/wp-content/plugins/elementor/core/document-types/page-base.php:185 |

I’ve encountered a new issue in the WPML Translation Management dashboard. The page gets stuck on "Loading items..." and never loads the content (see the attached screenshot). This prevents me from managing translations effectively. This issue appeared after the previous troubleshooting steps for the fatal error. The automatic translation feature is still not working properly, and now this loading issue has emerged. I’ve noticed that as long as Elementor is active, the Translation Management dashboard remains stuck on "Loading items...". When I deactivate Elementor, this issue doesn’t occur. I believe these problems (the fatal error and the loading issue) might be related to each other, possibly due to a compatibility conflict between Elementor and WPML. I’ve attached a screenshot showing the Translation Management dashboard stuck on "Loading items...". |

Hi, The fatal error you shared (Unknown format specifier "Ø") does not mention anything about WPML or one of its add-ons. I'm unsure if it relates to WPML, but we will continue to check things. If you need further help with this, please share the access details to your site with me. I'm enabling a private message for the following reply. Regards, |

Hi again. In addition to what I wrote above, please also proceed with the following. 1. Update Elementor to its latest version. 2. Finish setting up Media translation or deactivate it if you don't use it. https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/media-translation/ 3. Update WPML's DB. You should see a message about it in the admin. Please see the attached screenshot. 4. Complete the setup wizard for WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency. Please see the attached screenshot. After that, check to see if the problems have been solved. Thanks, |

I had already completed these steps before, but since I restored the backup, I needed to set them up again. I have now completed the setup again. However, I’m still facing issues: when I confirm translations in the Translation Management section, I get an error. Additionally, when I visit the site in the second language with the URL /ar/, I still receive a fatal error. Could you please investigate this further? I’d really appreciate your help. I’d like to add that when I deactivate the WPML String Translation plugin or Elementor, the fatal error no longer occurs. Also, when I click on the translation option for a page, it doesn’t work. Please note that this is a new site and there are no other issues with it. I’d really appreciate it if you could make some adjustments or settings on your end to resolve this, as I’m at a loss for what to do next. No matter what I try, I keep getting errors. |

Hi, I am sorry for any inconvenience you were caused. On your profile page here: hidden link, I added a first and last name. Sometimes, not having them causes problems with reviewing translations. Unfortunately, it didn't help, so I'm consulting our second-tier supporters about this problem. To check the fatal error in the Arabic language, I tried to connect with FTP to your site but received this error: Please allow me to take a copy of your site. I must install a plugin like Duplicator or All In One Migration for this. Please let me know if you agree. Thanks, |

I agree. For the FTP issue, please change the host to greener.om and use port 21 with the same username and password. |

Thanks, I installed the All-in-One WP Migration and Backup plugin, took a copy of your site, and escalated this issue to our second-tier supporter. After making a copy of your site, I removed the All-in-One WP Migration and Backup plugin from your site. I'll keep you updated here on any news regarding this issue. I appreciate your patience. |

Hi, We solved the problem with the fatal error: Fatal error: Uncaught ValueError: Unknown format specifier "�" Now, this page, for example, works. The problem was that the placeholder New %s 1. In WPML -> Strings Translation, I searched for New %s. And this solved the problem. We are still investigating the review translation problem (the main problem of this ticket). I'll update you once I have news about it. I appreciate your patience. |

Hello, thank you for your follow-up and for resolving the fatal error issue. However, I’m still unable to confirm or review translations. Additionally, the manual translation option on pages is also not working. |
