Problem: If you're experiencing issues with portfolio items disappearing when switching languages and receiving a 404 error page after switching languages on a product, follow these steps for a solution. Solution: 1. Add the following code to your theme's
functions.php
file:
// WPML Workaround for compsupp-7272<br />function wpml_compsupp7272_brisk_filter_category_slug($slug) {<br /> if ( class_exists( 'Sitepress' ) ) {<br /> /* We need to register the same slug in all languages, then translate that slug with a string translator<br /> * So let's hardcode the slug here and translate it later<br /> */<br /> $slug = 'products-category';<br /> }<br /> return $slug;<br />}<br /><br />add_filter( 'uicore_portfolio_category_slug', 'wpml_compsupp7272_brisk_filter_category_slug' );<br /><br />$slug = apply_filters( 'uicore_portfolio_slug', $slug );<br /><br />function wpml_compsupp7272_brisk_filter_portfolio_slug($slug) {<br /> if ( class_exists( 'Sitepress' ) ) {<br /> /* We need to register the same slug in all languages, then translate that slug WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation<br /> * So let's hardcode the slug here and translate it later<br /> */<br /> $slug = 'products';<br /> }<br /> return $slug;<br />}<br /><br />add_filter( 'uicore_portfolio_slug', 'wpml_compsupp7272_brisk_filter_portfolio_slug' );
2. Go to the WPML String translator and translate the category slug. 3. Navigate to WPML > Settings > Post Type translation and translate the post type slug. 4. Visit Settings > Permalinks and re-save Permalinks.

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where the site's cache resets every time a new
visitor enters the website when using WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency with LiteSpeed Cache. LiteSpeed support
indicated that the issue is related to how WPML stores cookies.
Solution:
We discovered that the 'wcml_currency' cookie is being set by LiteSpeed itself, which is expected behavior to create a
cache per currency. Our compatibility team has reached out to LiteSpeed, and they confirmed that this is by design. They
are still exploring possible solutions, but there is no immediate fix.
We made a minor change to bypass the
problematic class in the LiteSpeed plugin, which fixed the issue, but it's uncertain if this will cause other problems
with currency handling. We will keep you updated on any developments.
In the meantime, we suggest ignoring
the problem for now, as it should not significantly impact your site. Most users do not frequently use private/incognito
windows, which clear cookies upon closing, so they will likely see cached pages on subsequent visits.
If this
solution does not apply to your case, or if it's outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also highly
recommend checking related known issues here, verifying
the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If
you need further assistance, please contact us in the WPML support forum.
