Problem:
The client is using WPML with Rank Math SEO Pro and is unable to see the sitemap for the second language on their website. They also mentioned issues with untranslated Elementor containers and difficulties in adding a language to the main menu without dropdowns or flags.
Solution:
If you're experiencing issues with not seeing a sitemap for the second language, we recommend ensuring that the WPML SEO add-on is installed and active. For detailed guidance on how WPML works with Rank Math sitemaps, please visit our documentation: Optimize Multilingual Websites Using Rank Math and WPML.

Please note that the solution provided might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case.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 the issue persists, please open a new support ticket for further assistance at WPML support forum.

Problem:
The client is trying to translate the '_bubble_hot' custom meta field into Arabic using WPML, but it is not appearing in the String Translation module.

Solution:
1. Register the '_bubble_hot' Meta Field with WPML:
- Navigate to WPML → Settings.
- In the Custom Fields Translation section, find '_bubble_hot'. If it's not listed, publish or update a post with this field to make it appear.
- Set '_bubble_hot' to Translate and click Save.

2. Translate Field Content:
- Go to WPML → String Translation.
- Search for '_bubble_hot'. Enter the translation for Arabic directly if it appears.

3. If '_bubble_hot' Still Doesn't Appear:
- Ensure the field has content in at least one post.
- Perform a quick edit and update on a post.
- If using a custom field plugin, ensure WPML integration is configured.

4. Programmatic Registration:
- Add the following code to your theme's functions.php file:

add_filter('wpml_translatable_custom_fields', function($fields) {<br />   $fields[] = '_bubble_hot';<br />   return $fields;<br />});

- Revisit WPML → Settings to check recognition.

If these steps do not resolve the issue, it may be due to the field being dynamically added or saved in a non-standard way. In such cases, or if the problem persists, we 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 the issue remains unresolved, please open a new support ticket.

Problem:
The client is experiencing issues with managing translations using WPML on a WordPress site. Specifically, the translate icon 'pen' is disabled, displaying the message 'You can only edit translations assigned to you.' The client has tried various methods, including deactivating plugins and changing user capabilities, but the issue persists.
Solution:
We recommend checking if the user has been correctly assigned as a translator in the Translation Management settings. This can be done by navigating to the WPML Translation Management page. If the issue is related to specific pages not being editable by the editor, ensure that these pages are assigned to the editor. You can assign pages to an editor by following the steps shown in this screen recording: https://somup.com/cTQVoc84ql. Additionally, if you want the editor to have the ability to edit all pages freely, you should assign them as a Translation Manager. Detailed instructions on assigning this role can be found here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-admin-capabilities/.

If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your specific 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 further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Problem:
Der Klient versucht, zwei Sprachseiten manuell zu verknüpfen, sieht jedoch nur die Option für automatische Übersetzung und findet keine Möglichkeit, zwei Seiten als Sprachvarianten des identischen Inhalts zu verknüpfen.
Solution:
Um zwei Sprachseiten manuell zu verknüpfen, sollten Sie den Inhalt im WordPress-Editor öffnen und der rechten Seitenleiste des Editors eine Ausgangssprache zuweisen. Sie können Inhalte, die noch nicht übersetzt wurden oder für die kein laufender Übersetzungsauftrag besteht, manuell verbinden. Folgen Sie dieser Anleitung: Wie man bereits übersetzte Seiten verknüpft.
Falls Sie laufende Übersetzungsaufträge haben, können Sie diese unter 'WPML > Übersetzungmanagement > Übersetzungsaufträge' abbrechen.

Falls diese Lösung veraltet ist oder nicht auf Ihr Problem zutrifft, empfehlen wir Ihnen, ein neues Support-Ticket zu eröffnen. Wir empfehlen auch, die Seite mit bekannten Problemen (https://wpml.org/known-issues/) zu überprüfen, die Version der dauerhaften Lösung zu verifizieren und zu bestätigen, dass Sie die neuesten Versionen von Themes und Plugins installiert haben. Für weitere Unterstützung besuchen Sie bitte unser Support-Forum: WPML Support-Forum.

Problem:
El cliente necesita que los nombres de los modelos en su sitio web se mantengan en el idioma original después de las actualizaciones automáticas y que el cambio de estado a 'borrador' se sincronice automáticamente en todas las traducciones de una ficha de portfolio.
Solution:
1. Para evitar que los títulos se traduzcan automáticamente, se puede utilizar el glosario de WPML. Aquí está la documentación sobre cómo configurarlo: https://wpml.org/es/documentation-2/traducir-los-contenidos/editor-de-traduccion-avanzado/como-utilizar-el-glosario-para-traducir-con-precision/
2. Para sincronizar el estado de publicación de los portfolios, debe seguir los pasos en WPML -> Configuración, como se describe en este foro: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/sync-original-language-and-its-translations-post-status/ Si se trata de un tipo de contenido personalizado y la opción anterior no funciona, es necesario crear una solución personalizada, utilizando este ticket como referencia: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/how-to-sync-publish-status-for-product/

Si la solución proporcionada no resuelve su problema o parece desactualizada, le recomendamos abrir un nuevo ticket de soporte. También es aconsejable revisar los problemas conocidos en https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verificar la versión de la solución permanente y confirmar que tiene instaladas las últimas versiones de temas y plugins.
