This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is developing a site and wants to ensure a smooth WPML installation while considering using a VPN and looking at options on Hostinger.com.
Solution:
If you're considering using a VPN for your WPML installation, it's important to know that using a VPN does not impact the WPML installation itself. WPML operates independently of your network connection type. We recommend ensuring that your hosting environment meets WPML’s minimum requirements for a smooth installation. You can check these requirements and verify with your hosting provider, like Hostinger, if they are met. For more details, visit WPML Minimum Requirements.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at WPML Known Issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. Should you need further assistance, please open a new support ticket at WPML Support Forum.

Hi Mikael,

Thanks for reaching out 😊

Using a VPN is totally up to you and doesn’t impact the WPML installation itself. WPML works independently of whether you’re connected through a VPN or not. Just make sure your hosting environment (like Hostinger) meets WPML’s minimum requirements, and you should be all set for a smooth installation.

You can check with your hosting if they meet the requirements, most do.

Best regards,
Lucas
