This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is importing real estate properties daily from Bitrix into WordPress using WP All Import, with the main import language being English. The properties should automatically translate into Arabic, Chinese, and Russian. However, issues include some English properties not translating into all languages, some translations remaining incomplete, and when properties are deleted from the English import, their translated versions and associated images are not deleted properly.
Solution:
1. Navigate to All Import -> Manage Imports in your WordPress admin.
2. Click Edit on your property import.
3. In Step 4 (Configure Advanced Settings), change the deletion setting to Delete posts that are missing from this import and were created by a previous run of this import.
4. Ensure the option Also delete Attachments is unchecked to prevent media deletion issues.
5. Save your import configuration.
6. After the next import run, verify if the translated versions and their images are also properly removed.
7. To ensure automatic deletion of translations, go to WPML > Settings, scroll to Posts and pages synchronization, and enable When deleting a post, delete translations as well.
