This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are working on a site under development using WPML String Translation and encountering an issue where WPML is unable to write .mo files to the folder: /u01/eirsapp/public_html/wp-content/languages because the folder is not writable. This is preventing string translations from appearing on the site.
Solution:
To resolve this issue, we recommend making the folder writable. You can follow the guide on how to make folders writable here: https://wpml.org/faq/cannot-write-mo-files/. If you encounter difficulties, it would be best to contact your hosting support to check if making the folder writable is possible on your hosting. If it is, request them to adjust the folder's permissions for you.
