Problem: You are trying to translate an English page into Dutch using WPML, but the Flip Card module from the Divi Flip Cards plugin is not showing in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE). All other content is available for translation, but the flip cards are missing, even though the ATE lists the translation as 100% complete. Solution: The Divi Flip Cards plugin is not WPML compatible by default. To translate the flip cards, you need to register the Divi module with WPML. Here are the steps to follow: 1. Identify the Divi module's (Flip Card) shortcode and its attributes. 2. Navigate to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration. 3. Follow our guide on registering Divi modules and add the necessary XML configuration as described. 4. Open the page containing the module, resave it without making any changes. 5. Update the translation, and you should then see the content from the module in ATE.

Problem: You are working on a multi-language site using WPML and need to know how to preserve translations when creating a new staging version with live data. Solution: Currently, there is no direct method to push WPML translations from staging to live. However, you can merge the sites to share the same translation memory, glossary, and translation credits for automatic translation. This allows translations made on the staging site to be accessible on the live site through the Advanced Translation Editor. For detailed steps on how to merge sites, visit https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/automatic-translation-subscription-for-multiple-sites/.
After migrating the site to a new URL, complete the migration banner that appears in WPML and use a unique new site key for each site URL or server change.

Problem: The client's high-traffic corporate website experienced a downtime due to an unexpected traffic spike, with potential issues related to WPML observed in the SQL query logs. It was unclear whether the problem stemmed from WPML or another plugin affecting WPML’s performance. Solution: We recommended increasing the WordPress memory limit to at least 256 MB as WPML requires a minimum of 128 MB. The client was advised to add the following code to the wp-config.php file:
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
just before the comment:
// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.
Additionally, we suggested ensuring all themes, plugins, and WordPress itself are updated to their latest versions to avoid bugs or performance issues. We also recommended checking for any conflicts by switching to a default WordPress theme and deactivating all plugins except WPML and its add-ons and Elementor. If the problem persisted, the client was to activate plugins one by one to identify the problematic plugin. For further details on managing translations and optimizing WPML with caching, we provided links to our documentation:
