Faisal Ahammad	Hi there, Good afternoon! I noticed that you've manually duplicated the page. When a page is duplicated manually, its content won't be automatically translated, as the new page will be independent, and its design can be changed. To have the content automatically translated, you should choose the 'Translate' option from the main page. This will create a new page that's translated into the target language. If you want to translate the existing duplicate page, you can either manually translate the content or delete the page and create a new one. Then you'll be able to use the automatic translation option. I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Best regards, Faisal

Faisal Ahammad	Hi there, Good morning! I hope you're doing well. Upon further investigation, I discovered that you hadn't translated the "NEW ALTENGE JACKET" product description into Thai. This is why your Thai product page still displays the English description at the bottom. After creating your product, go to the WooCommerce > WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency > Products page. Then click on the pencil icon to translate the string. From what I can see, your automatic translation is paused, which is why the content isn't being translated automatically. I've outlined the process in this video, which you can follow: hidden link. I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any other questions. Best regards, Faisal

poonyalidP Site owner	Hi, Thank you very much for your video. The reason I paused auto translation because my server is very high CPU and RAM usage and I paused for investigate the problem. From your instruction, it seems like the translation should be done manually. Can I let the WPML to auto translate everything automatically without manual translation word by word as you mentioned in the video? Before I paused, it's set to translate automatically. When I create a new product page and let translate automatically, WPML only translate the Product short description but not the whole page. The description are as you seen are not translated. I'll enable the auto translate now. Please show me again how the whole product page will be auto translate? Please advice. Thanks. Thanks.

poonyalidP Site owner	Hi, I just resume the automatic translation. I want to auto translate both way (Thai=>Eng and also Eng=>Thai). More question, do I need to review for every translation? Please see illustrated. More question, from your advice "After creating your product, go to the WooCommerce > WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency > Products page", do I need to do it every time I create new product? Or can it be automatically translate? Moreover, do you have video instruction how to use WPML for auto translate WooCommerce products? Thanks.

Faisal Ahammad	Hi there, Good afternoon! I hope you're doing great. Since Thai is your site's primary language, you must first add a post/page/product in Thai. WPML will then automatically translate the content into the secondary language (English). However, if you add the post/page/product in English, WPML won't be able to translate it into Thai automatically. In this case, you'll need to translate the content manually. Keep in mind that the automatic translation feature does not cover the following: 1. Unpublished drafts 2. Content created in a secondary language 3. Pages or posts previously translated using a different method to avoid overwriting existing translations. Instead, please continue to use the same translation method you originally used (https://wpml.org/faq/why-arent-my-translations-showing/) for those pages and posts. For more information, please visit: https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/ I hope this helps! If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask. Best regards, Faisal

poonyalidP Site owner	Hi. Thanks for your explanation. Yes, my primary language is Thai. But many time I receive original content format in English. Example, products with English description. So I need to do both language (Thai and Eng). So what should I do? What is the proper and easiest way to do translate and available in both languages. How about if I create product primary in English. Then I enter translation page and client "Auto translate to Thai" at the top menu and click accept? I tested it but when saved, the Thai version product will showing English content as previous illustrated above. Thanks.

Faisal Ahammad	Hi there, Good evening. 1. Firstly, I kindly request that you create a product in the Thai language and allow WPML to translate the content into English automatically. If you encounter any issues, such as Thai text remaining in the English product description, please let me know so I can investigate further. 2. Secondly, if you add a product in English, WPML will not be able to translate it to Thai automatically. You will need to translate it, as you have manually done before. If you come across any English text on the Thai product page, please ensure that you have followed the recommended guidelines outlined on this page: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/how-to-build-multilingual-sites-with-wpbakery-page-builder-and-wpml/. I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Best regards, Faisal
