This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with the gear icon appearing after manually updating translations using the Classic WPML Editor, and suspect it's causing unnecessary database growth due to repeated update prompts, this might be due to an object cache interference.
Solution:
We recommend disabling the object cache while performing translations to prevent this issue. Additionally, you can enhance the system by implementing a specific plugin designed to handle such cases. Here are the steps to create and add the plugin:
1. Navigate to the
/wp-content/
folder on your site.
2. Create a folder named 'mu-plugins' if it doesn't exist.
3. Inside the 'mu-plugins' folder, create a new PHP file (e.g., 'wpml-non-persistent-cache.php') and insert the following code:
<?php<br />/**<br /> * Plugin Name: WPML Non-Persistent Cache<br /> * Description: A plugin to prevent persistent caching issues<br /> * Author: OnTheGoSystems<br /> * Author URI: https://wpml.org/errata/problems-with-buddypress-multilingual-and-redis-object-cache/<br /> * Version: 1.0.0<br /> * Plugin Slug: compdev-220<br /> */<br /><br />wp_cache_add_non_persistent_groups([<br /> 'convert_url',<br /> 'element_translations',<br /> 'get_pages_adjust_ids',<br /> 'get_user_admin_language',<br /> 'translation_priority_relationships',<br /> 'translationmanagement--get_translation_job_id',<br /> 'wpml_cache_terms_per_lang',<br /> 'wpml_endpoints_support',<br /> 'wpml_pre_option_page',<br /> 'wpml_register_string_filter',<br /> 'wpml_register_string_filter--facetwp',<br /> 'wpml_slug_translation_records--post',<br /> 'wpml_slug_translation_records--taxonomy',<br /> 'wpml_st_cache',<br /> 'wpml_term_translation',<br /> 'wpml_tm_blog_translators--has_translators',<br /> 'wpml_wp_cache__group_keys',<br />]);
