[Resolved] Media Translator Listing Deleted Images - Site Not Displaying Translated Images

Problem

The client reported that after changing the slider type from Nectar Slider to \"Basic Slider\", the images displayed correctly in both English and French pages. However, the Salient Blocks for the Slider were missing from the French translation's backend, even though the slides were functioning correctly with the Basic Slider. The client was concerned about the differences in blocks shown between the English page and the French translation, particularly the missing Image Gallery block.

Solution

We recommended adding custom XML configuration to the WPML settings to ensure compatibility with the Nectar Slider. Here are the steps to follow:

<wpml-config>
  <shortcodes>
        <shortcode>
            <tag>vc_gallery</tag>
            <attributes>
                <attribute encoding="allow_html_tags">title</attribute>
        <attribute encoding="vc_safe">custom_links</attribute>
        <attribute type="media-ids">images</attribute>
        <attribute encoding="base64">items</attribute>
      </attributes>
    </shortcode>    
  </shortcodes>
</wpml-config>

After adding the code, make a change on the page in question and update the translation.
