Problem: The client is experiencing an issue with the core List block, where the translation does not appear as expected on their site when using WPML. The expected translation does not match what is displayed.
Solution: We resolved the issue by removing specific XML configuration that was not necessary for WPML to handle core blocks. Here are the steps to fix the issue:
1. Navigate to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration.
2. Remove the following XML:
3. Save the changes. 4. Open your post or page with the List block in the default language and save or update the post/page. This should trigger the translation update. 5. If the update does not trigger, make a small change in the content and save again. 6. Update the translation in ATE, review, and hit "Complete translation" ensuring it is at 100%. 7. Repeat steps 3 to 6 for all posts/pages where this List block is used. 8. Clear all caches and check the frontend.

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with changing the translation engine in WPML from Deepl to Google and not seeing any changes in the translated content, or if you're curious about how WPML handles having both Google and Deepl translation engines enabled at the same time, we have some guidance for you. Solution:
For the first issue, ensure that you have completely deleted the previous translation from both the list where the page/post translation appears and from the trash. We have a guide on how to properly delete a translation: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-delete-the-translation-of-a-page/. It's possible that the translation was not fully removed before resending the translation job with the new translation engine selection.

Problem: The client was inquiring about how WPML handles having both Google and Deepl translation engines enabled at the same time. Solution: We explained that WPML prioritizes the translation engines based on the order of preference set by the client. The engine listed at the top will be used first, provided it supports the language pair required for the translation. If the top choice is not compatible, WPML will then attempt to use the second option, and so on. We recommended reviewing our documentation on how to change automatic translation engines for more detailed information: https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/how-to-change-automatic-translation-engines/

Problem: The client inquired about the possibility of adding AI translators, such as the ChatGPT API, to the WPML translation widget. Solution: We informed the client that currently, there is no integration between ChatGPT/AI translation services and WPML. We do have plans for potential integration in the future, but we cannot provide an estimated time of arrival as it is still in the feature request stage. We have taken note of the client's interest and have added their vote to the feature request.
