Problem: The client is developing a custom plugin for a referral and commission system, which shows an error upon activation, suspecting a conflict with WPML. The client also inquired about the necessity of various WPML plugins listed in their setup. Solution: The error is not specifically related to WPML but to the early loading of translation files by plugins like ld-multilingual, learndash-certificate-builder, and learndash-memberpress. These plugins are loading translation files before WordPress is fully initialized, which can cause PHP notices and affect content translation and functionality. We recommend wrapping the translation file loading within an

Problem: The client is trying to display a translated page 'Nos courses' on their website using WPML. The default language is English, and the page has been translated to French. However, the translated page does not appear in the main menu, although it shows up when switching languages using the language switcher. Solution: 1. Ensure that the LearnDash Multilingual plugin is installed since the course pages are generated by LearnDash. This plugin is necessary for WPML to function correctly with LearnDash. For more details and installation instructions, visit WPML documentation for LearnDash and LearnDash compatibility add-on. 2. Go to WPML->Settings->Post Type Translations and set the slug of courses to 'nos-cours'. This adjustment should help display the translated page in the main menu.

Problem: The client is unable to translate forms created with Fluentform using WPML, despite attempting a workaround by creating a new form with translated label names. Solution: If you're experiencing issues translating forms created with Fluentform using WPML, follow these steps: 1. Ensure that the new form with translated items has its own unique ID. 2. Edit the page in the default language. 3. Use the language switcher at the top of the page to switch to the translation. If you can't see the language switcher, exit full screen mode. 4. Dismiss any warnings, and you should now be able to manually edit the translation either in the WP editor or the page builder mode. 5. Replace the old form ID with the new form ID and update the page.
