[Escalated to 2nd Tier] WPML is saving wpml_notices on every request (MySQL binlog getting too big)

Thanks @Nigel, I've tested this, but it looks like get_current_user_id() is empty when it's called in get_all_notices(), probably because it's called before all the wordpress functions are loaded. So this solution doesn't seem to work just yet.

Also... it's still setting notices with every ajax call, when the user_id is 0 as well.

OK, they additionally suggested making the following change (in the same file) to prevent the notices being updated on ajax requests:

private function save_notices() {
		$this->remove_notices();
		if ( ! has_action( 'shutdown', array( $this, 'save_to_option' ) ) && !wp_doing_ajax() ) {
			add_action( 'shutdown', array( $this, 'save_to_option' ), 1000 );
		}
	}

Other than that, we'll need to wait for the developers to fully resolve the problem.

Sorry, it hasn't been fixed in development yet, and you will need to continue to apply the workaround.

Sorry, I checked the internal tickets and it still isn't fixed yet.

It is on a bugs list along with some other confirmed issues. What tends to happen is these get worked on together in a dedicated bug-squashing sprint, but I can't say quite when that will be.

You will need to continue to apply the workarounds for now.

I'm really sorry Maarten, checking again I see no progress.

I have messaged the project manager directly to point out it has now been a year, let's see what they say.

Since it's been 1.5 year... If anybody else has this issue and is tired of updating the plugin each time it gets updated.

```
// fix wpml notices
add_filter('pre_update_option', function ($value, $option, $old_value) {
// Specifically target wpml_notices option
if ($option === 'wpml_notices') {
// Return old value to prevent update
return '';
}

// Return value unchanged for all other options
return $value;
}, 10, 3);
```
