Hello there,

Thanks for your contact, and welcome to the WPML support forum!

I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to take a better look at the issue. You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply. The information you will enter is private which means only you and I can see and have access to it.

Our Debugging Procedures

I will be checking various settings in the backend to see if the issue can be resolved. Although I won't be making changes that affect the live site, it is still good practice to backup the site before providing us access. In the event that we do need to debug the site further, I will duplicate the site and work in a separate, local development environment to avoid affecting the live site.

Privacy and Security Policy

We have strict policies regarding privacy and access to your information. Please see:
https://wpml.org/purchase/support-policy/privacy-and-security-when-providing-debug-information-for-support/

**IMPORTANT**

- Please make a backup of site files and database before providing us access.
- If you do not see the wp-admin/FTP fields this means your post & website login details will be made PUBLIC. DO NOT post your website details unless you see the required wp-admin/FTP fields. If you do not, please ask me to enable the private box. The private box looks like this: hidden link

Please, let me know if you need any additional details. Have a nice day.

Thank you for providing the credentials.

In order to debug the issue and test possible solutions with more safety, we'll need the FTP credentials as well. Could you please review it and provide us with this login information? I'm marking your next reply as private, so you can put the requested data. Thanks!

I might need to confirm the api for the plugin but cannot find the email. Could you have it sent again?

Hey there,

Thank you for providing the FTP credentials.

I checked this out but so far I couldn't find a fix for it. I asked my colleagues to have a look at this issue in order to see if there's anything I'm missing.

I'll come back here as soon as one of my colleagues reply back to me (which it shouldn't take long).

Thanks,
Mateus.

thank you i'm wondering if it has to do with the error with the api key. I was told that we should have received an email to confirm the plugin that I cannot find.

Hello there,

We're facing a hard time trying to migrate your website to a copy version hosted on our servers.

By chance, is it possible that you set a staging website where we can check and debug the issue without affecting the live production? I'm marking your next response as private so that you can enter the requested data. Please let us know.

Thanks,
Mateus.

Hello there,

Thanks for your patience while we investigate this issue.

Upon further inspection, we could solve the problem by following these steps:

- We accessed your database, and excluded this key in the options table: "WPML_TM_AMS"
- Enabled back ATE

After this, the translations are available in the Advanced Translation Editor. Could you please check it and confirm that the issue is solved?

Thanks,
Mateus.

Yes, that works wondering as the translator options are no longer available on the fields at the bottom of the page. Will this affect anything or will it save me from the complex sorting of custom fields. Also wondering now that I am working with level 2 support could they figure out why some bottons don't work on the translator?

not translator I meant translated pages.
