[Closed] Posts not updating with translated content

Hello,

Usually, after migrating the site, you should go to the WordPress Permalink settings and save them again.

This will reset the permalinks of the site and they will use the new site URL.

But when it comes to lanks that are placed directly into the content of pages or posts, means as raw text with HTML, then you usually would need to adjust those links manually.

It is not even really a WPML issues. You usually would experience the same issue on a site running without WPML.

I see Search & Replace plugin seems not to solve the issue.

Maybe you could try to fix the issue with a PHP snippet like this one:

function replace_site_url() {
    global $wpdb;
    $old_url = '<em><u>hidden link</u></em>';
    $new_url = '<em><u>hidden link</u></em>';
    $wpdb->query(
        $wpdb->prepare(
            "UPDATE {$wpdb->posts} SET post_content = REPLACE(post_content, %s, %s)",
            $old_url,
            $new_url
        )
    );
}
add_action('init', 'replace_site_url');

Adjust the URLs, then paste it to the functions.php file of your theme. Refresh the website and remove the snippet again.

If this will still not solve the issue, please take note that this is expected WordPress behavior and not a WPML issue.

Hello,

I was not yet able to figure out what is causing the issue, but it seems to be related to the new UI of the Advanced Translation Editor.

Take note, that it is not recommended to use inlide CSS when working with the Advanced Translation Editor, as you need to translate it.

Example:
<p style="padding-left: 40px;">3. Ensuring Safety and Reliability</p>

See screenshot. Anyhow, the translation is still stuck at 98%.

I wanted to ask, if you would agree converting the post content to WP Bakery content and give it a try with the translation?

Are there more posts that have a similar issue?

Best regards
Andreas

By switching to the old editor, you mean that you changes the Advanced Translation Editor setting to use its old UI?
