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

Problem:
You are using WPML to translate your products into 26 languages, resulting in 7500 products in your WordPress admin. However, only 750 product URLs are indexed by Google, and the XML sitemap does not contain more than 6500 product links.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend you try the following steps:
1. Ensure all products are published.
2. Verify that all plugins and themes are up-to-date.
3. Install WPML SEO if it is not already installed.
4. Re-send the sitemap for indexing in the Google Search Console.
Additionally, please provide the debug information of your site as described here: https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it is outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

You must assign those translation credits to the site. You can see in the screenshot you shared that the site only has 2000 credits assigned.

Hi,

To answer your latest questions:

1.- when 7000 products link index in Google? -> As mentioned in my previous messages, this is up to Google. WPML doesn't index content, search engines do, so you must contact Google's support service and ask them when Google will index the products.

2.- you solve problems in 7500 product links are included in the XML sitemap? -> Yes, all products are in the sitemap, you can see it in this link: hidden link

3.- how can know the problem it solved, i not expert, so help me to know -> From the WPML side, all problems are solved. All the content is correctly setup.

I think there is another problem that prevents archiving each translated product page separately
as "SKU, GTIN, UPC, EAN, or ISBN" it is fixed and does not change with each language as in the attached images one in egnlish and same tour as in germany .
What is your opinion as an expert?

Hi,

I'm Osama from the WPML support team. To answer your question about the SKU, it doesn't change between languages because if it changes, you won't be able to track and sync the stock between languages.

So, it's the expected behavior for the SKU not to change in the translated languages.

If you want to discuss the issue today, we can arrange a meeting in Arabic. If today is not suitable for you, we can arrange a meeting later, but it will be in English.

Best regards,
Osama

Hi,

1) WPML can't fix the indexing issue, so you need to contact the Google support team or wait for the Google engine to re-index your site.

2) Here is a guide to translate the tags automatically.

Please share the access details with Carlos. He will test it for you and confirm that the steps will fix the tags issue.

Best regards,
Osama
