The default WordPress importer doesn’t support the multilingual data WPML uses to manage translations. To address this, we’ve developed an add-on specifically for exporting and importing multilingual content — including custom post types — in a way that preserves language relationships and translation data. You can find a step-by-step guide on how to use this tool here: Exporting and Importing Multilingual Content with WPML Please review the guide, follow the instructions, and let me know how it goes or if you run into any issues. I look forward to your update!
