Fatal error: Uncaught ArgumentCountError: 14 arguments are required, 2 given in

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with WPML String Translation and encounter an error at

wp-content/plugins/wpml-string-translation/classes/translations-file-scan/wpml-st-translations-file-registration.php:100

, it might be due to the use of non-Latin characters in your child theme folder name.
Solution:
We recommend renaming your child theme folder to use only Latin characters. Here's how you can do it:

Backup your website.
Access your website files and navigate to
```
wp-content/themes/
```
.
Rename the child theme folder to a name with Latin characters, for example:
```
blocksy-child
```
.
Go to your WordPress dashboard, under Appearance > Themes, and reactivate your child theme.

If this solution doesn't seem relevant to your issue, please open a new support ticket with us.

Christopher Amirian WPML Supporter since 07/2020 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Yerevan (GMT+04:00)	Hi there, I have checked the website on the copied version and the same issue is happening there. This suggests that the issue is happening because of the migration and it is not related to a code or something. Most probably something is wrong in the database as the issue happens as soon as Elementor is enabled and that shows the content inside the database might have a mismatch due to migration. I suggest that you do a migration using another plugin and see the result. You can use one of the plugins listed here other than the Vivid plugin: https://wpml.org/plugin-functionality/backup-migration/ Thanks.

Christopher Amirian WPML Supporter since 07/2020 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Yerevan (GMT+04:00)	Hi there. Thank you. I copied the website to the server of ours and the issue is happening there after the migration. I spent some time to see if I could find the cause of the issue with no result. I reported this to the second-tier support. I will update you here as soon as I have news. Thank you.

Christopher Amirian WPML Supporter since 07/2020 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Yerevan (GMT+04:00)	Hi there, I have an answer from the second tier support: The problem is the child theme folder. It is "%d8%a8%d9%84%d9%88%d9%83%d8%b3%d9%8a-child" and this creates the problem because we try to parse a path which contains 14 arguments that we expect them to be filled. Please rename the name of the child theme folder to a latin normal characters. Thanks.

Christopher Amirian WPML Supporter since 07/2020 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Yerevan (GMT+04:00)	Hi there, You can enter themes what do you mean by that? The issue is the name of the theme which is not in latin words. You should change the name of the theme to normal one. Access your website files. Go to wp-content/themes/ and you will see what I mean (Check the screenshot) The name of folder should be in latin not Arabic characters (which then turns into those characters as some servers can not handle non latin folder names). Please backup your website, change the folder name to for example: blocksy-child Then go back to Appearance > Themes and activate your child theme again and it should work Thanks.
