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

Problem:
Can I hide products that are not translated, in both the original and in the secondary language?

Solution:

You can't control how many products show up in the default language but you CAN control how many products are showing up in the translated version of the site.

So, in the secondary language, you should be able to display only the translated ones and in the source/original language, you can show all of them.

If you would like to accomplish that, please follow the steps below:

- Go to WPML -> Settings and click on "Post Types Translation"

- There you can select how "Products" will behave, select the option to "Translate" like in the screenshot here:

Hi, how are you? I need to show only the products that have translations.

I have 1000 products in the greek language and only 150 are translated to english. Is there a quick way to display only the 150 products in both languages?

Hi, thanks for contacting us.

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to show only translated products in the default language. You should set them to private

Hi there.

As my colleague mentioned above, you can't control how many products show up in the default language but you CAN control how many products are showing up in the translated version of the site.

So, in EN, you should be able to display only the translated ones and in Greek, you can show all of them.

If you would like to accomplish that, please follow the steps below:

- Go to WPML -> Settings and click on "Post Types Translation".

- There you can select how "Products" will behave, select the option to "Translate" like in the screenshot.

That should do exactly what you wanted.

Have a lovely rest of the day. 🙂
