Problem: The client is experiencing issues with registering their site on WPML due to a discrepancy between the SiteURL and HomeURL. The site is built on the Bedrock platform, which causes the URLs to differ, and the client's developer is unable to make them the same without breaking the site.
Solution: We recommend updating all WPML plugins and WordPress to the latest versions to ensure compatibility and to benefit from the latest bug fixes and improvements. This may not resolve the issue, but it is a necessary step for troubleshooting.
1. Backup the database. 2. Update the WPML plugin to the latest version, currently 4.6.9, and all add-ons. 3. Update WordPress to the latest version. 4. After updating, attempt to register the site again and provide a screenshot of any errors, along with the URL used for registration.
If the problem persists after following these steps, or if this solution is not relevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If necessary, please open a new support ticket for further assistance: WPML support forum.
Problem: The client's website uses WPML and is built with WordPress on the Bedrock framework. The website does not show as registered, and attempting to register results in an error. The site's SiteURL and HomeURL are different, which may cause issues. Solution: We recommend making the SiteURL and HomeURL the same, which can be done in the wp-config.php file or through the WordPress admin settings. After aligning the URLs, follow these steps: 1. Temporarily remove your website from your WPML account sites list here: https://wpml.org/account/sites/ 2. Add the website again, ensuring the format matches the SiteURL (e.g., 'https://www.domain.co.uk/'), and copy the new key. 3. Update the wp-config.php file with the new key by setting the value of the constant OTGS_INSTALLER_SITE_KEY_WPML to the new key.
