[Resolved] I cannot not save certaing post translations, there is infiniste saving loader
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: The client was unable to save post translations using the WPML Classic Translation Editor, experiencing infinite loading. The issue was traced to the handling of sticky posts. Solution: We discovered that the 'sticky_posts' option was missing in the database. To resolve this, we created a test post, enabled it as a sticky post, and then translated it into a second language. This allowed the client to save translations when using the WPML Classic Translation Editor. We recommend checking if this solution resolves the issue on your end.

this is the code in the file sitepress-multilingual-cms/inc/translation-jobs/helpers/wpml-save-translation-data-action.class.php line 266
// set stickiness
// is the original post a sticky post?
$sticky_posts = get_option( 'sticky_posts' );
$is_original_sticky = $original_post->post_type == 'post' && in_array( $original_post->ID, $sticky_posts );
Checking the database, table wp_options, I see the option "sticky_posts" doesn't exist. So I created a test post > enabled sticky for this post > translated it to second languages. Now I can save the translation when using WPML Classic Translation Editor.
