[Resolved] WPML Media Translation

HI!
Same.

Andreas,
Button stays inactive.

Scenario:
1) Edited source page (en) and uploaded new image
2) Via page list* in en found source page and edited FR-FR translation in WPML, saw image meta and filled it out.
3) Via WPML media translation edited FR-FR translation and uploaded new image. BUT was not able to save due to inactive button

Please read whole conversation before answering and kindly advice with EXACT steps you want me to test. I learn that WPML in some cases can behavior differently* depending on how you call it, so we need to be very precise.

Long story short:

ME: I attempted to upload another media via 'Use a different file', adding Name, Caption, and Alt text. The 'Save media translation' button remains inactive and cannot be pressed.

Christopher Amirian: Would you please test if the same thing happens if you do not touch the meta information of the image?

ME: same

Andreas W.: You will need to edit the meta information and then the bottom should become available.

Thank you.

* for example structural changes will be pushed to translations ONLY if you edit translation from page list, but they remains intact if you edit source page and than open translation from here. IMHO its bug. Also when you duplicate translation from here - link will be broken, you have to use duplicate feature in Translation management to keep link. IMHO its bug #2. Also when you have translation duplication, in source page (en) translation duplicate of fr-fr, fr-be looks like translation of en, instead of fr-fr, while on fr-fr its displays correctly. IMHO its bug #3.

Done it now and previously. Not working.

Hi Andreas,
I was able to figure out Media translation - appears one of plugins we are using - "Easy Media Replace" is the reason. Any idea of compatible alternatives ? Any fixes?

Easy Media Replace allows you to replace images and media files easily while retaining the attachment URL and ID. No more delete, re-upload, and search-replace. IE. Instead of deleting old image or upload new - we simply replace file.

Andreas, sorry, problem remains with Media Translation - case where we use Custom Block. I've translated media, but when use it with my custom page block "convera/card-block", which have mediaURL and mediaID param, remains untranslated, unless in source page (EN) I insert separate image and choose same image like in block, than edited translation in FR-FR - both images get translated, but when I remove image - my image in custom block again not translated.

<!-- wp:convera/card-block {"title":"Governance: our approach to creating best-in-class governance of the ESG program","text":"","mediaID":4736,"mediaURL":"hidden link","cardType":"title-text-image","mediaStyle":"none","mediaPosition":"right"} -->

Andreas,
When we edit source page (EN) in WordPress our block contains mediaURL and mediaID, but we are using mediaID like this:

$thumbURL = $attributes['mediaURL'];
if($attributes['mediaID']) {
$thumbURL = wp_get_attachment_image_src($attributes['mediaID'], 'post-thumbnail')[0];
}

When we edit translated page (FR-FR) in WPML - we dont have mediaURL and mediaID.

What is confusing me, when I add regular image which same as used in my block

<!-- wp:image {"id":103670,"sizeSlug":"full","linkDestination":"none"} -->
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img src="hidden link" alt="Convera ESG 2023 Report" class="wp-image-103670"/><figcaption class="wp-element-caption">Convera ESG 2023 Report</figcaption></figure>
<!-- /wp:image -->

while have my block

<!-- wp:convera/card-block {"title":"Working together for the future","headingLevel":"h2","text":"","link":"hidden link","linkTitle":"","linkTarget":"_blank","mediaID":103670,"mediaURL":"hidden link","cardType":"title-text-image","mediaStyle":"none","mediaPosition":"right","mediaAlignment":"justify-content-right"} -->...

everything works as expected. once regular image deleted - block translation stop working.
