Hi.

I translate a page, and the cog icon stays active.

I got to Translations, and translate again, and the page stays as in progress status.

Hi there,

Try the following:

- Make a small change to the default language and update

- Update the translation again

- Verify that it's at 100% and save

Let me know your results, please.

I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to test the issue.
(preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible)

**Before we proceed It is necessary to take FULL BACKUP of your database and your website. Providing us with access, you agree that a backup has been taken **

I often use the Duplicator plugin for this purpose: http://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply.
The information you enter is private which means only you and I have access to it.

NOTE: If access to the live site is not possible and the staging site does not exist please provide me with a duplicator package created with the duplicator plugin.

Thank you,
Bobby

Hi. I have just tried again and everything is working fine now. What could have caused the issue before?

* actually it is not working. I just made an edit to the homepage and now it will not translate. it seems to be if i make an edit, then go to translate it does not work. Could this be a caching issue?

Hi there,

Thank you for updating me! When I review the translation I can see that it's at 98% completion which is why the 'cog' icon is showing.

The original language has some HTML markers that are not applied -> see my screenshot.

Once I apply it I can save to 100% and be able to finish French and German.

Hello. The problem seems to be this: I edit a page, then I go to translate the edits but the edits are not showing to be translated. It seems this could be a caching issue?

I have just tried translating the home page and the same problem, the page does not complete (even though it is 100% complete) and stays in progress.

It does look like a caching issue.

What are your results when purging the cache or temporarily disabling the drop in cache.

Going to WPML->support->Troubleshooting-> Synchronize local jobs ids with ATE jobs & Synchronize Translators and translation manager with ATE

I also run a few more tests you can see my results in the following screen recording

At the moment I am able to save it OK and also the front page still shows OK and not stuck in progress.
