Problem: If you're experiencing an issue with your database growing too large due to the icl_translate (4.3 GB) and icl_translation_status (3.2 GB) tables, it might be due to how WPML retains data. Solution: We recommend updating to the latest version of WPML where this issue has been addressed. After updating, you can find a new option to clear old translation data under WPML > Support > Troubleshooting. To update WPML, navigate to Plugins > Add new in your WordPress dashboard, click on the "Commercial" tab, and then click "Check for WPML Updates".
Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
