Problem: The client is considering recreating their existing website and wants to understand the implications for their current translations.
Solution: If you're planning to recreate your site, you might not need to redo all translations provided that:
The URL of the site remains the same.
The site is registered under the same WPML account, even if using a different site key.
The content that was previously translated remains unchanged.
If you used the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) or automatic translation before, your translations are saved in Translation Memory. This means if the same sentence is sent again for translation, it will be reused.
However, be aware of potential issues:
Changes in design that alter the content could require new translations.
Changes in style or design elements that affect the visual presentation but not the content might also need updates.
We recommend testing these changes on a staging site before applying them to your live site.
