My site has some custom patters in a custom pattern area. The site was designed in English, I translated the patterns to French, but the translations don't appear anywhere in the site editor. I was able to translate the pattern area and create new patters in French, but I get a 404 error when I try to save any changes to the pattern. It's submitting here: hidden link test-2 is the name of the pattern. |

Hi there, I can see that our Ai support suggested reviewing the Errata documentation, however, I don't see a URL link for it, just to make sure it came through have you been able to review this known issue. https://wpml.org/errata/template-is-not-applied-to-translated-page/ Let me know your results, please. |

Yes I tried that. I created a new pattern for testing. Here is what happens. 1. I made the "Pattern Taxonomy" translatable. and translated my custom category - The translated pattern is in the wp_posts table with the same guid and post-name as the original. There is a row in icl_translations specifying its language correctly. If I try to create a pattern in French mode (not a translation of anything). I can see it but I can't save any changes to it. |

Thank you for the update! I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to test the issue. **Before we proceed It is necessary to take FULL BACKUP of your database and your website. Providing us with access, you agree that a backup has been taken ** I often use the Duplicator plugin for this purpose: http://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ NOTE: If access to the live site is not possible and the staging site does not exist please provide me with a duplicator package created with the duplicator plugin. Thank you, |

I was able to workaround this issue by making my theme block pattern a custom post type. That way I didn't need to deal with the issues I was having with the full site editor. |
