Problem:
Getting This plugin failed to load properly and is paused during recovery mode when trying to activate WPML.
Solution:
- Was caused by fatal error "Error message: Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: element_id and type do not match for element_id:" related to the erratum linked next.
- Search for the element_id in the wp_icl_translations table which is throwing the error and delete the row as explained in the erratum..
