Background of the issue:
I am trying to resolve an issue where my site (hidden link) shows the message 'The WPML plugin cannot connect to wpml.org', even though it is correctly registered in my WPML account. I have verified the site registration at wpml.org/account/sites, deleted transient values and wpml-registration options via delete_site_option() in functions.php, deactivated and reactivated the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin, and completed the initial configuration wizard successfully. The issue persists, and I suspect a lingering connection/cache issue on your side or with my license state. I have provided temporary admin access: hidden link.

Symptoms:
The WPML plugin cannot connect to wpml.org, and updates do not work.

Questions:
Could you please force a reset or check from your end?

Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you resolve the issue.

I had a quick check on your site backend. The site is successfully registered with WPML.org.

This may be a temporary issue most of the time. Please contact your hosting provider and ask them to whitelist the following domains:

wpml.org
cdn.wpml.org
api.wpml.org
api.toolset.com
cloudfront.net

Refer to this link for more details, and let us know your feedback: https://wpml.org/faq/wpml-plugin-cannot-connect-to-wpml-org/

Thanks!
