For some old woocommerce products it is impossbile to translate product variation names with particular type. Only if I create a new product with new variations (not using old variations) only then new vairations appear on the product translation page.

These are two screenshots one from a new product with new attributes. Other the old one. The attributes that were picked up in old ones do not contain the type of the product as in new one. Is it normal behaviour? For new ones they are just being duplicated it seems. Old ones look like slugs

Hi,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

Please go to WPML-> Taxonomy Translation, select the attribute, and translate the terms.

Please let me know if the steps above resolve the issue.

Best regards,

Hi,

Please share an example of the problematic products.

Also, I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP)
Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.

Your answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.

❌ Please back up your database and website ❌

✙ I need your permission to deactivate and reactivate the plugins and themes, and change site configurations. This is also why the backup is critical.

✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.

Best regards,
Osama
