I'm trying to activate the plugin but it generate a fatal error on the website:

While activating it:
PHP Fatal error: Cannot redeclare icl_get_home_url() (previously declared in /home/505420.cloudwaysapps.com/ahjahxnqem/public_html/wp-content/plugins/polylang/modules/wpml/wpml-legacy-api.php:21) in /home/505420.cloudwaysapps.com/ahjahxnqem/public_html/wp-content/plugins/sitepress-multilingual-cms/inc/template-functions.php on line 55

I can't share the info because I can't activate the plugin

Hi there.

The error mentions that there's an existing function that has already been declared in the Polylang plugin which is currently active.

It is not recommended to use more than one active multilingual plugin on the site because issues like this can occur.

Please disable Polylang and then try to re-enable WPML.
