Problem: The client is using WPML for their website and has questions regarding the costs of translating sentences with variable attributes, the automation of translations for new content, and whether numerical values are excluded from translation costs. Solution: 1. WPML utilizes a translation memory, which means you won't be charged for sentences that are identical to those already translated. For more details, visit how WPML keeps track of your translations. 2. If you use the "Translate everything automatically" option in WPML > Settings, WPML will translate any new content when changes occur. However, this might consume many credits if there's a lot of new or final content. Alternatively, the "Translate what you choose" setting allows more control, letting you select specific content for translation. 3. For sentences with variable attributes like [Scale], each unique sentence is considered new and will be charged unless it matches an existing entry in the translation memory. Sentences need to be 100% identical to be reused from memory without charge. 4. WPML does not translate or charge for numerical values like years or dimensions, as these are recognized as non-translatable and reused from the translation memory.

Problem: You are trying to manage product translations on your site using WPML and want to prevent certain product titles from being translated while ensuring that all product details, especially colors, are translated accurately. However, WPML sometimes leaves product colors and certain details untranslated, causing inconsistencies in product descriptions. Solution: If the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin is active on your site, all product data, including taxonomies and variations, should translate easily and remain consistent. To keep the product title consistent across languages, when translating the product, copy the title from the default product into the translation. In the translation editor, translate the rest of the content and save the translation. This way, the product title will stay the same in all languages, while other data like taxonomies and variations will be translated properly. Ensure that the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin is installed and activated on your site, as it handles the translation of all product data, including variations, correctly. For more details on translating products and their data, please refer to this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/woocommerce-multilingual/
