Styles are not rendering correctly, page loading takes a very long time, and my live site shows the wrong translations.

The problem with the page load seems to be with WPML String Translation plugin, when I disabled this plugin the pages could be saved and not loading forever and styles are correct.

Also it seems that this is not related to Kalium theme but a plugin issue because when I switched to the default WordPress theme the issue persisted - which means the issue is related to the plugin itself.

I have resolved the style issue, but slow loading when saving is still persistent. Is there any way to optimize or clean the WPML implementation - I don't understand why it takes so long.

I waited more than 1 day for this response!?

I have followed these documentation links and others and still face the problem. Can you please take a look to see what I mean? It happens on page update only and only when WPML is active.

To be clear, my site is not slow, it is whenever I want to update/save a page - it takes 2-5 minutes. When I deactivate the WPML String plugin update/save is fast.

Also I noticed you did not look at the resources provided. Please look at the attached video examples.

Hi,

"Remove strings" will remove untranslated strings only so you can select all domains in the box. Then delete strings of the "default" only, please check this screenshot hidden link

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Hi,

We can handle one issue per ticket only so I will split this ticket into a new one for the issue with the long time updating the translation, it is a different issue.

Thanks.

Hi,

After restoring your site on my local host, I see there is an issue between the WPBakery builder and WPML String Translation. If I deactivate one of them, the page is updated properly.
Specific to the homepage, on the Test page, the slow issue does not occur hidden link

Then I try to delete sections on the homepage one-by-one and find the section "Ver todas las funciones +" that has the Gutenberg Editor module that causes the issue.

You can copy the homepage to another page and try to delete that section, update the page and see how it goes.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks
