I manually turned off the WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency plugin and the site started running again. But I need to activate the plugin so please assist with this issue. |

Please update the wpml-string-translation plugin to resolve the issue. |

Hi, there is something strange here. I can see that there are newer updates of your plugins. However when I check the list of active plugins on the website, the regular bar saying that there are updates available is not showing, so I have to manually update the plugins buy downloading them from your site and then upload to mine. Do you think it is safe to upload the updates? Feels like something is wrong here. |

It is safe to upload the updates. The problem you are experiencing is caused by having an up to date version of sitepress-multilingual-cms while the version of wpml-string-translation is outdated. Once you upload the updates, the problems should go and you will be able to activate woocommerce-multilingual and update it too. |

Hi, I have now updated all WPML plugins. When I try to activate the WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency plugin again, I get this message: Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error. Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wcml_loader() (previously declared in /home/nyiyzefu/domains/treband.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-multilingual/wpml-woocommerce.php:82) in /home/nyiyzefu/domains/treband.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-multilingual1/wpml-woocommerce.php on line 147 |

It seems that you have 2 active instances of the WCML plugin on your site (see the paths in the error message): I suggest removing both instances, and install a brand new one either from the OTGS installer or from the wpml.org downloads page. Thanks, |

Hi, how can I do that when I only see one of them in the list with plugins in the backend? |

Alright so I can just remove one of them in the file manager I assume, but how do I know which one? |

Hi, Using the file manager go to 'wp-content' folder -> 'plugins' folder -> Remove the 'woocommerce-multilingual1' folder |

The translations are saved in the Database, not in the plugins folders. So yes, I'm sure you won't lose any translation. If it makes you feel secure, you can create a full site backup before removing the plugin folder. |
