Marco Scalone	Hello, I have an issue with the WooCommerce Multilingual plug-in. Today I installed the plug-in extension, but it totally broke the back-end products layout. The layout of the translated shop page is a mess and the “Add to cart” button disappeared. Can you help me? What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Kolkata (GMT+05:30)	Hello, Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you to resolve these issues. WPML(core plugin) is already active on your site and the issue happens just after activating WooCommerce Multilingual plugin today, am I right? To help you faster, I've enabled debug information for this support ticket. Please see this link for how to get this information from your site and give it to us: http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/ -- Thanks! Bigul

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Kolkata (GMT+05:30)	Hello, Thank you for the updates and Debug information. I have couple of requests to track the issue. 1) Please share with me the WordPress debug.log (not WPML debug information). Please check this page for instructions https://wpml.org/documentation/support/debugging-wpml/ To enable it, open your wp-config.php file and look for define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);. Change it to: // Enable WP_DEBUG mode define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true ); // Disable display of errors and warnings define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false ); @ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 ); // Use dev versions of core JS and CSS files (only needed if you are modifying these core files) define( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG', true ); In this case, the errors will be saved to a debug.log log file inside the /wp-content/ directory. Please do the steps to reproduce the bug and check you are getting any errors or warning related to WPML in the log file. If you can paste your debug.log to http://pastebin.com/index.php and provide me that link it would be great! (This is the cleanest way because sometimes the logs are long and create a complete mess of discussion). 2) Maybe you are facing this issue because of compatibility conflicts. So to make sure if possible, please do the following steps. a) Backup your site first b) Switch for a moment to a WordPress default theme like 2017 c) Deactivate all the plugins that are not related to WPML d) If the issue is gone, activate the plugin one by one to see with which one there is an interaction issue -- Thanks!

Marco Scalone	Hello, here's the debug log: https://pastebin.com/VW27bbr6 I tried to deactivate all the plugins but nothing seems to change. I disabled the yoast SEO meta box and the back-end products layout works again. Thanks. Have a nice day. Schermata 2019-07-30 alle 18.03.45.png

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Kolkata (GMT+05:30)	Hello, Thank you for the login information. This may be a compatibility issue. So to make sure, please switch for a moment to default 2019 theme after site backup and make sure the Shop and individual Product page is showing Add Cart button in secondary language. I have a request. Please upgrade the following configuration for the better performance for the site. May improving these configuration will help us to solve the issue. 1) Upgrade PHP version to 7.2 or greater, the recommened PHP version for WooCommerce and WooCommerce Multilingual. Please check this article for more details -- https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/server-requirements/ 2) Increase WP Memory Limit to 256(the minimum required memory limit for WPML is 128). Please check the following links for more details https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/ https://wordpress.org/support/article/editing-wp-config-php/#increasing-memory-allocated-to-php 3) Increase the MaxInputVars of PHP settings to 5000 or more. Please check the following article for more details or contact your system admin/hosting provider for this purpose. hidden link Please try it after a site backup and let me know your feedback. -- Thanks!

Marco Scalone	Hello, I switched to the default theme and I can see the "add to cart" button into the Shop page. Also the single product page works fine. 1. I cannot upgrade the PHP version to 7.2. Currently is 7.1; 2. I increased the WP Memory Limit to 256; 3. I created the php.ini file and I added this code into .htaccess file: <IfModule mod_php5.c> php_value max_input_vars 5000 </IfModule> Unfortunately the translated shop page is still a mess.

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Kolkata (GMT+05:30)	Hello, Thank you for the details. This may be a compatibility issue with Luxwine theme. It requires further checking. So please allow me to make a duplicator copy of your site using the Duplicator plugin(https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/) for debugging the issue on my local server. Please note, MaxInputVars is not increased yet. It is still showing the value as 1000. -- Thanks! Bigul 2019-08-01_1147.png

Marco Scalone	Hello, The Duplicator package is ready. You can log into the website and download the file. I followed some tutorials but I can’t increase the Max Input Vars value, it gives me an “Internal Server Error” message. If you want I can provide you the FTP credentials. Thank you, have a nice day.

Bigul Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Kolkata (GMT+05:30)	Hello, Thank you for the updates and Duplicator package. I am debugging the issue on my local server now. The Add Cart button is showing in English on Shop and Products page when Advanced Custom Fields PRO plugin is inactive. Please check the attached images for more details. So please share me more details of Advanced Custom Fields PRO usage on your site. Are you calling ACF fields in theme templates or have you made any changes in the theme files? -- Thanks!

Marco Scalone	Good news! While I was searching for some details about the Advanced Custom Fields PRO plugin, I noticed that the Store Settings into Theme Options were reset even if I surely activated them. Both translated Shop page and Single product page finally work! Thank you for your patience. You gave me great tips. Have a nice day.
