[Assigned] translate article

Hello Bigul,
These settings are not the issue.
Indeed, you have access to staging, which is limited.
My original site has the settings you mention (see image), and it does not change, status is identical.
I am even more sure that it's not an issue of memory or calculations, that I duplicated this post, cut it in 4 different pieces, and it does change anything as well. For any of the 4 sections.
For your info, one of the elements that you tried to translate was formerly translated with WPML strings. And the other one is an addition, few days ago. Knowing that I had not enriched this post since probably ... last year.
For your info, I had a case open on this, say 1 year ago, the supporter spent his tme shooeting the ball in other fields (plugin, memory, etc.). Fact is that if editor was not working, string translation was. And using much less memory / CPU than the editor.
My interpretation: all what was translated via WPML strings is not translate-able nor modifiable by the editor. I just discovered that it's in another Database. So, there is a logic. For me, this way of doing is a kind of non-sense, all should be related to the original item (wheter plugin, post, product, ...) ... but not to which "tool" was used to translate.
Then, it also looks like any post, page, product .... which has been partly using WPML strings in the past, can't be changed anymore. From a customer point of view, it's a damage.
Waiting for your feedback and with my kindest regards
Alina

Hello Bigul,
You were most certainly right, if the settings on my Cloudways interface seemed right for my site, they were probably not implemented ... thank you for noticing it. I questioned the Cloudways team, and now, it's rectified and apprearing on WP/Tools/Information, it's image max input vars.
Following this change, I tried again to translate the post.
What is the result?
- as far as I can see, I can translate all fields / paragraphs.
- when I save, the saving can't be completed, the hour glass remains for hours ...
- when I later look at wp/articles, the given article is declared as 'under way", that's your clock wheel (see image uncompleted)
- surprisingly, when I open the translation (EN), it's declared as 100% completed (that's image though-completed)
- when I look at article in EN, well, whatever declared as translated or not, and anyway though 100% translated in WPML editor, the post remains at it was before (see faisan / pheasant, translated in WPML editor but invisible in EN post). Or see coeur saignant / bleeding heart flower, which remains in former string version.
For you to see with your eyes, I upaded the staging, to make it match with the current version of my site ... but php settings
So, all considered, I remain on my former belief: a "thing" (post, product, page) can't be modified if it were in the past partly translated via WPML strings.
Waiting for your feedback and wishing you plenty of good things
Alina
