Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate media on my site hidden link using WPML. I have followed the normal documentation.

Symptoms:
Media translation is not working. I have translated many images, but they are not appearing.

Questions:
Why are the translated images not appearing on my site?
Is there a specific step I might be missing in the media translation process?

Hello,

When translating the page with the WPML Translation Editor, are the image source URLs maybe appearing inside the WPML Translation Editor?

If so, then you will need to adapt the translations of those URLs manually. If you go to the media library and switch the language inside the top admin bar you will be able to access your alternative media files and copy their source URL.

If this will not clarify and solve the issue, I can offer a WPML test site on which we can recreate the issue and escalate it internally to our compatibiliy team.

Best regards
Andreas
