Problem:
The client needed to know how to translate a custom post type with WPML.
Solution:
We recommended ensuring that the custom post type is set to "Translatable" in the WPML settings. This can be done by navigating to WPML > Settings > Post Types Translation section and setting the Post type to "Translatable". After this, the client can translate the custom post by clicking the + sign or through WPML > Translation Management.
For more detailed instructions, we provided a guide: Translating Custom Posts.

Hi there,
Thanks for contacting WPML support.

If you're trying to translate the custom post type, please make sure it's set to "Translatable" in the WPML settings.

To do this, please go to WPML > Settings > Post Types Translation section. Set the Post type to "Translatable", then you can translate the custom post by clicking the + sign or in WPML > Translation Management.

Kindly check this guide for more details: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-custom-posts/

Kind regards,
Mohamed
