Background of the issue:
I am trying to upload products on my site hidden link. I am not a developer and I earn my money by selling, not by working on my site. I can handle support in Spanish or English.
Symptoms:
I am losing a lot of hours of work and money due to several different problems related to product uploads.
Questions:
Can someone follow me live on the product uploading process to help determine what I am doing wrong?
Why are all these problems happening during product uploads?
What is the correct way to upload products using WPML?
This is your product you sold me, and something you did to it made it work very poorly ever since.
The taxonomies and product cathegory traslation is full of problems and the most awkward things are happening to me while trying to translate products even if I operate "following documentation".
What is that I have to understand?
I don't think I'm asking for the moon, I'm sure there is someone on WPML or its orbit who would be happy to be paid for helping me out on this and you are not even going to try to point me on the right direction to get that?
I'm sorry? If this is the best I can expect from you as support, I'll have to look for alternatives.
I tell you what I hope, I hope that people like me don't get tired to keep on trying, because if so, world would stop.
Great, I just tried to update CMS "following doucmentation" and I got a critical error that would not allow me to go into the site not even on recovery mode, another day that I'm going to loose.
Ok, finally I have all installed and apparently working and the problem continues.
Traslated cathegories are present everywhere and they looked ok, but if you try to go into them a 404 screen will come up or you will be sent to homepage or a different language than the actual one you wanted to see.
Only Spanish (original) and English would work, and there is no diference no where between English and French or Italian that don't work.
Now suddenly has became much worse, even when everywhere sims cathegories are well configurated and should work with no problem, no traslated cathegories would work on no language.
You can se the product, and see that the string is present, but if you try to go into cathegopry level, you'll get a 404 screen
So again, as usual, a lot of time lost to get nowhere.
There is something broken on the strings or who knows, I do not for sure as I'm nothing similar to a programmer or a developer, and here I'am anyway trying to act as one.
I have followed all kind of documentation and tickets, I have spend so many hours on test and error and it does not work.
The only thing I know is that when I decided to pay for this plugin and I redesigned my site trusting on its help, all this stuff wasn't happening.
So, whenever it is that you have availability and interest to look at this, please let me know.
Thank you for your update, and I apologize for the delay. The past few days have been hectic, and with fewer people working on weekends, progress has slowed. However, things should move faster from now on.
I want to emphasize that our primary goal as supporters is to help our customers resolve their issues. Please rest assured that we have your best interests at heart, and that's a promise.
Now, let me clarify a few points:
Compatibility issues can arise depending on the plugin versions a site is using. Sometimes, the plugin versions may be outdated, or there may be conflicts with other plugins. Additionally, if the site is built in a custom way, it may require custom solutions (custom work or coding) that fall outside the scope of our Support Policy.
In such cases, it's not that we don't want to help; it's simply that custom work requires time and must be handled by a developer or by a WPML contractor (https://wpml.org/contractors/), as outlined in our Support Policy.
We are always happy to investigate and guide you in the right direction if custom work is needed, but unfortunately, we, as supporters, cannot perform custom work for customers, even if we are compensated. This is our Support Policy, and we are not permitted to undertake paid work for other clients.
As my colleague mentioned, we can offer support only through live chat (when you open a live chat session) or via a support ticket (like the one we are currently on). Our Support Policy does not allow us to handle support issues through phone calls, video calls, or email.
Regarding any error messages you may encounter, the more information you can provide upfront, the better and faster we will be able to address your ticket.
If you're experiencing critical or fatal errors, we need to see the full error message to understand the issue.
Sometimes, no messages appear initially, and additional steps are needed to find the error message. In such cases, we can enable the WordPress debug log and reproduce the issue to see if a more specific error message is generated.
To enable debugging, please edit the "wp-config.php" file in your WordPress directory and add the following lines:
Once this is done, please try to reproduce the issue again. You should be able to locate the debug log at: "https://cdn.wpml.org/wp-content/debug.log".
If there is any content in the debug log, please paste it on a site like pastebin.com and then share the link with us (only you and we will see the URL you share; it will be automatically hidden from others).
Regarding the import of products, it would be helpful to know where these products were originally exported from and in what format. Again, the more information we have upfront, the better we can understand the situation.
I wanted to take a moment to ensure I provided a prompt response that addresses the points you've raised. Currently, I'm unclear about the status of the site and the errors that are still occurring. While I cannot guarantee that we will be able to fix all issues (especially those requiring custom work), I am more than happy to take a look at the backend if you would like me to do so.
Alternatively, if you prefer to contact a WPML contractor who can offer you "live support," that is also an option.
Please let me know how you would like to proceed with this ticket. I will be waiting for your response.
Kind regards,
Mihai Apetrei
