Problem: If you're experiencing issues with WPML where fields show as 100% translated after saving, but the WordPress dashboard indicates incomplete translation with some fields having an orange light, this might be due to a known bug. This issue often occurs when translations are performed quickly, and it seems to affect various fields randomly, particularly when using Elementor and Bricks Builder. Solution: We recommend reopening the translation and saving the segment for a second time. This workaround has helped some clients while we continue to develop a permanent fix. Our developers were aware of this issue and already applied a solution.
If this solution does not resolve the issue or if it reoccurs, it might be due to the problem being outdated or not applicable to your specific case.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 problem persists, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket for further assistance at WPML support forum.
Problem: You are trying to translate Elementor button links on your website, specifically to link to an archive page using a relative URL in the Elementor button link, like /evenement/. However, the 'Calendar' button redirects to the French version instead of the expected English archive page. Solution: We recommend checking our guide on translating URLs. When you encounter a page with untranslated buttons, search for the slug (for example, 'evenement') to see all URLs that contain it.

Problem: The client was having issues with an archive page created with Bricks builder, where they used a loop to display categories and dynamic data to call the featured image from an Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) field for custom taxonomy types. Solution: We recommended the client to manually edit the translated taxonomy that was causing the issue and simply click save. This action should resolve the problem with the display of the translated taxonomy.
