Problem: You are developing a site and need to add a custom currency or set different prices for different languages using the same currency. You found that the multi-currency plugin allows adding currencies like Solana or Bitcoin, and you are wondering if you can add your own custom currency to set different prices per currency. Solution: 1) Adding a custom currency is not a feature provided by WPML but by WooCommerce. You should add your custom currency to WooCommerce, and then you can use it in WPML/WCML. We recommend checking the WooCommerce developer documentation on how to add a custom currency symbol here: https://woocommerce.com/document/add-a-custom-currency-symbol/ 2) It is not possible to set different prices for different languages using the same currency in WPML. Each language version of a product is a translation of another, so the content and prices should remain consistent unless they are created as separate products.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with translating the checkout page using WPML, specifically when the page is built using WooCommerce blocks. The checkout page displays in the wrong language for Austrian German (de_AT), as WooCommerce currently does not support translation for certain elements in custom languages when using blocks.
Solution: 1. Ensure a full backup of the website is made. 2. If using blocks on the checkout page, replace them with the WooCommerce shortcode:
1
[woocommerce_checkout]
. 3. Update the translations after changing to the shortcode. 4. This method allows the use of WPML String Translation to handle the translations effectively.

Problem: The client is developing a site and considering using WPML. They want to know if WPML supports using a CDN when configuring different domains for each language. Solution: We confirm that WPML supports using a CDN with different domains for each language. Here is a step-by-step guide to setting this up: 1. Configure WPML for Different Domains: - Navigate to WPML → Languages. - Select "A different domain per language" and specify your domains (e.g., example.com for English, example.fr for French). - Ensure each domain is correctly pointed to your WordPress site through DNS settings. - For further details, refer to our complete guide on different domains: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-url-options/how-to-use-wpml-with-different-domains-per-language/ 2. Set Up Your CDN: - Add each language domain as a separate "pull zone" in your CDN. - Configure caching rules to ensure language-specific assets (such as images and scripts) are not mixed between domains. 3. Manage SSL and Cache: - If using HTTPS, ensure each domain has a valid SSL certificate. - Clear your WordPress and CDN caches to ensure all settings take effect.

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where WPML does not recognize HTML tags like breaks or P tags in the ACF WYSIWYG editor.
Solution: We recommend turning off the 'big segments' preference in ATE, as this has resolved the issue in our tests. If the problem persists, try enabling the option 'Use the previous version of the Advanced Translation Editor' in ATE, make a small change in your ACF field content, save it, and attempt to translate again. For more details, please refer to the errata page at https://wpml.org/errata/disabling-i-prefer-bigger-segments-is-not-working-properly/.

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where navigating to
1
www.domain.com
redirects to the homepage of the main language instead of redirecting to the correct language version of the site. Solution: We recommend informing the hosting support about the issue with WPML when using NGINX and a different domain per language and asking to review the DNS settings of the server. Please note that the solution provided might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If after checking the known issues and confirming that you have the latest versions of themes and plugins the problem persists, we highly recommend opening a new support ticket. You can do so by visiting the WPML support forum.
Problem: The client wanted to hide the main language on the front end for non-admin users because it was not ready for public viewing. They were also considering switching the main language to a translated language and were concerned about potential data loss or issues.
Solution: We informed the client that it is not possible to hide the default language using WPML's 'Hide languages' feature, as it only allows hiding secondary languages. We suggested using a Maintenance Mode plugin to hide the entire site from users until it is ready. Here is an example of such a plugin:
Additionally, we advised that if the client has original content that is not ready to be published, they should set this content as 'Draft' in WordPress. This is not related to WPML, as WPML only handles translations of the original content. For more information on drafts, please visit: WordPress Drafts

Problem: The client wanted to display certain products only in specific languages without translating them. Solution: We explained that our WooCommerce Add-Ons require a translation for each product. However, we suggested creating the product in the default language and then setting up a 301 redirect to the product translation in the language where the product should appear. This way, the product will only be visible in the selected language.
