Problem: You are working on a site using Elementor and WPML and want to know if changes made to the design in the main language will automatically be copied to the translated pages. You've noticed that the translated pages remain in the old design. Solution: When you change the design in the default language, you need to manually update the translation using the WPML translation editor to ensure that the new design is copied to the translated pages.

Problem: You are encountering a critical error when using WooCommerce Product Filters in a secondary language. Solution: We recommend setting up independent filters for each language: 1. Navigate to WooCommerce > Filters. 2. Switch to the second language and create a new filter directly in that language, then save it. 3. Obtain the shortcode for this new filter (e.g.,
[wcpf_filters id="86"]
). 4. Go to Appearance > Widgets, add a shortcode block, and insert the shortcode for the new filter. 5. Translate the necessary strings in WPML > String Translator, specifically the admin_texts_wcpf_setting_default_project string with the ID of the new filter.
This approach is necessary because the WooCommerce Product Filters plugin expects users to translate the filter ID option, as indicated in their WPML compatibility class. However, it's unclear if this is the recommended workflow or if translated filters should also function correctly. We suggest contacting the Product Filters for WooCommerce plugin authors to report this issue, as the plugin is not listed as compatible and the authors have been difficult to contact directly in the past.
Using different filters per language should serve as an alternate solution until further clarification is obtained.
