Problem: The client reported significant slowdowns on their website when WPML was enabled, despite having a high-performance server setup. The site performed well without WPML and with fewer active plugins, but slowed down considerably when more plugins were activated alongside WPML.
Solution: We conducted a series of tests to isolate the issue, including updating themes, minimal plugin activation, and detailed performance monitoring. It was determined that the performance issue was not caused by WPML itself but by a third-party plugin, specifically 'Ultimate GDPR & CCPA'. This plugin was found to consume a significant amount of runtime due to a function running a regex callback on numerous posts, which severely impacted site performance. We recommended deactivating this plugin or contacting its support for a resolution.
If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix,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 problems persist, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.
Problem: Вы заметили, что функция WPML_Term_Query_Filter->get_terms() вызывается 80 раз на странице категории WooCommerce, что приводит к 80 SQL-запросам к таблице term_taxonomy и увеличивает время загрузки страницы. Solution: Если вы столкнулись с аналогичной проблемой, мы рекомендуем вам попробовать следующие шаги: 1. Перейдите в WPML → Языки → Make themes work multilingual и временно отключите опцию «Корректировать ID для многоязычного функционала (Adjust IDs for multilingual functionality)». Посмотрите, изменится ли поведение. 2. Перейдите в WPML → Настройки и проверьте, не установлена ли для товаров и категорий товаров опция «Переводимая – использовать перевод, если доступен, или отображать оригинал (Translatable – use translation if available or fallback to default language)». Если установлена, попробуйте изменить её на «Переводимая – отображать только переведённые элементы» и проверьте результат.
Это решение может быть неактуально или не подходить вашему случаю. Мы настоятельно рекомендуем проверить список известных проблем, убедиться в актуальности версии исправления и подтвердить, что у вас установлены последние версии тем и плагинов.

Problem: Si estás experimentando lentitud en tu sitio web debido a consultas pesadas generadas por WPML, especialmente en las tablas wp_icl_strings y wp_icl_translations, y notas un impacto en el TTFB y el rendimiento general, incluso después de haber desactivado el registro automático de cadenas y limpiado dominios no utilizados. Solution: Te recomendamos crear un sitio staging con una copia de tu sitio en producción para realizar pruebas sin afectar el sitio en vivo. Puedes utilizar el plugin WP Staging, que es gratuito. Una vez establecido el sitio de staging, comparte las credenciales de acceso con nosotros para que podamos revisar e implementar las optimizaciones necesarias. Asegúrate de que la copia del sitio en el staging no incluya imágenes ni archivos extra que aumenten significativamente su peso, limitándolo solo a los archivos esenciales de WordPress, plugins, temas y la base de datos.
Si esta solución resulta irrelevante debido a que está desactualizada o no se ajusta a tu caso, te recomendamos abrir un nuevo ticket de soporte. También te sugerimos revisar los problemas conocidos y verificar que tienes instaladas las últimas versiones de los temas y plugins. Para asistencia adicional, visita nuestro foro de soporte.
Problem: If you're experiencing a very high autoload from
icl_sitepress_settings
, you're not alone as this is a known issue. Solution: We are currently working on a fix to reduce the size in future versions of WPML. Unfortunately, there is no immediate workaround available, and it is suggested to remove or clear autoload options. While we cannot provide an exact release date, the fix is scheduled for the next major release of WPML.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking the related 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.
Problem: You are experiencing server downtime which you believe is caused by WPML, specifically related to ProcessNewTranslatableFields.lock. Additionally, you are concerned about high autoload issues from icl_sitepress_settings. Solution: We recommend updating your WPML plugins to the latest versions to address the server downtime issue. You can do this by navigating to Plugins > Add New > Commercial > Click “Check for updates” and update WPML plugins to the latest versions. Please ensure to create a backup before proceeding with any updates.
If the solution provided here becomes irrelevant due to updates or does not apply 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.

Problem: The client is experiencing critical performance issues with WPML on their multilingual site, including high Time To First Byte (TTFB) and additional database queries. They have tried various optimizations but the issues persist. They also face SEO issues with WPML-generated multilingual slugs being improperly indexed by Google. Solution: We recommend setting up a staging site to safely test changes without affecting the production environment. Follow these steps: 1) Install the Query Monitor plugin from https://wordpress.org/plugins/query-monitor/ 2) Monitor the load time and number of queries using the tool provided by the plugin. 3) Disable all WPML plugins and check the load time and query count again. 4) Disable all other plugins, activate only WPML plugins, and switch to the WordPress default theme to isolate the issue. Please report back with the results of each step.
If this solution does not resolve the issues or seems outdated, 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 problems persist, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
Problem: The client is experiencing severe slowdowns in the WordPress admin area, particularly when accessing pages like /wp-admin/plugins.php, /wp-admin/edit.php, and /wp-admin/post.php. The slowdowns are related to high memory usage and long response times when WPML String Translation is active. Deactivating the WPML String Translation plugin significantly improves backend performance.
Solution: We recommend the following steps to diagnose and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Ensure all plugins and themes are up to date. 2. Create a full site backup or a staging site to safely test changes without affecting the live site. 3. Deactivate all plugins, including WPML plugins, and switch to a default WordPress theme like Twenty Twenty. 4. Activate WordPress debug mode by following the guide at https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/debug/debug-wordpress/. 5. Reactivate the WPML plugins and monitor the site's performance. 6. If the issue is resolved, reactivate other plugins and the theme one by one to identify any conflicts.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if the solution provided here becomes outdated or does not directly address 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 problems persist, please open a new support ticket for further assistance at WPML support forum.
