Bobby WPML Supporter since 04/2015 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: America/Los_Angeles (GMT-07:00)	Thank you, I have full access now! Based on the videos shared with me, if I understand correctly some translations have duplicate variables, correct? For example: hidden link vs hidden link The sandbox was using outdated versions of WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual, I have now updated them to the latest versions shown here https://wpml.org/account/downloads/ NOTE: I am using a dev license on the sandbox as the one you had is from the live site and would not work. Also, when reviewing the product in the backend and view the translation, I can see the duplicated variables. It looks like a possible corruption in the database. I will further investigate with our team and update you as soon as I have some feedback.

ericS-63	Yes, tat product seems to be look correct with the variants - but the translated version (NL for example) has duplicated. This was no issue before a made the updates. To recap: So we have a translation problem with the products BUT also with let say the start page/home page. Can you also explain or investigate that? Is there anything you want me to do, maybe update the plugins on the Sanbox2 or anything else? Thanks! /Eric

Bobby WPML Supporter since 04/2015 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: America/Los_Angeles (GMT-07:00)	Hi there, Please review the products now. These are the steps I took. 1. ran WCML troubleshooting actions in WCML->Status->Troubleshooting 2. Updated WC + ACF Prop + WPML plugins (WCML was updated but it looks like after updating WC as well it helped) 3. Went to the German translation -> edit product -> dismiss the warning -> update.

ericS-63	Yes, did a quick check now and it seems to be fine. 1. ran WCML troubleshooting actions in WCML->Status->Troubleshooting - What setting did you check there?

Bobby WPML Supporter since 04/2015 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: America/Los_Angeles (GMT-07:00)	To be on the safe side I ran the following: Synchronize data into translations Synchronize product variations Synchronize products image galleries Synchronize metadata for product categories (display type, thumbnail) Synchronize stock for products and product variations Fix multilingual information Fix incorrect or missing translation links for product variations
