i have added the increase in wp-config. But I'm trying to overwrite content as you posted and I get the spinning icon forever. Don't know it is realted to JS error seen in screencast gif: hidden link If i wait a good while and hit "update" it does not seem to have updated anything (still old post content) but doing it a copule of times seems to make it work - but i have no indication of when it has completed the overwriting. |

Hey there, A few things: 1. In the steps I shared, there's no instruction to click on "Translate independently"; This option is not needed here. 2. In the video you sent, the option of being a synched duplicate already seems to be activated. That means that, the way things are, the translation should always be an exact copy of the original that gets updated automatically; It's still not clear to me, what's not working as expected. Please answer these questions as objectively as possible: 1. You want to have your German CPT products as exact copies of the original. Is that correct? I'm trying to understand only this part first. Let's leave the issue with the order to later. I'm waiting your feedback. |

1. I have to click the "Translate independently" else I can't access the "Overwrite..." etc. options. 1. yes ,the German have the same content - only difference is the buttons that are being translated (standard WordPress translations) and of course the footer / header that are German related. 2. Yes. |

Hey there, Thank you so much for sharing. Ok, so regarding the "Translate independently" button. This button only shows, when the translation is a duplicate of the original. So, if you see this button, there's no need to follow the steps because the translation is already set up the way it should. |

Ok that is how I want it. But I guess the issue is, when duplicating a product (Yoast Duplicate Post - https://wpml.org/plugin/yoast-duplicate-post/) it duplicates the copy the translation (German) and sets it to Draft. I update the English product and publish. The German is left in Draft mode and with the old content. How can this be solved? |

To publish and later update the translation, you can follow these steps: 1. Visit your pages tab; Now you can update the original and make the necessary changes in the German translation. Let me know if this works for you. |

Ok - so it is working with updating the English product after having published the german one. But featured image are not set - is there a setting for that? You can see the here: hidden link weird thing is, that it seems to be set in the backend where they both have the exact same. Any ideas?
