I pushed my site from dev to staging, and now every morning around 10-10:30AM ET, WPML resets and needs to be reconfigured. I get the message "You need to configure WPML before you start translating" like it's never been set up before. I proceed to restore the site from a backup and everything works correctly, until 10 the next morning when everything resets again. The site has many, many items set up in WPML, so I can't reconfigure or set it up again, which is why I need to restore from a backup. But I can't keep doing this every morning, so was hoping you could take a look and fix it for me so it doesn't reset. The site is hidden link, and it does the same thing on the staging site as well. Copying/pasting the debug info after I restored it, but I haven't restored staging and can provide that info if needed. |

Hello, as it happens at a specific time, it is probably related to your hosting clearing up some database. We have a similar issue with WPEngine, where they clear the WPML settings key, as it is too large for its limitations. Please check the next ticket, and if similar contact your hosting support to disable the auto-delete of these larger tables. - https://wpml.org/forums/topic/wp-engine-clears-wpml-settings/#post-9617177 Let us know how it goes, please. Regards, |

Thanks Dražen! I do use WP Engine, and the size of the wp_options table was over their limit. I disabled the autoload for the icl_sitepress_settings like this: UPDATE wp_options SET autoload='no' WHERE option_name='icl_sitepress_settings'; Once that was in place, 10:30 has passed and from what I see, the site/plug-in is still functioning correctly. So it looks as if everything is working as it should now. That said, I read a couple of other posts here, and it says not to disable the autoload function. The site seems to be perfect now, and it actually appears to be faster as well. Just curious why the autoload shouldn't be disabled, and what could happen if it is? |

Thank you for your feedback. Our developers are already working on a solution to not autoload everything. For the icl_sitepress_settings option, I think it is OK to keep it not be autoloaded. It should be handled in near future versions. |
