Problem: The client wants to automatically translate articles using PHP when they are published in English, and then mark them for review. They also need to notify registered translators for the specific language translation, in this case, English to Dutch. Solution: Currently, WPML does not support this specific requirement directly. To achieve this functionality, it requires custom development. We recommend using WPML's hooks and filters to implement such a solution. You can find more information and guidance on our WPML Hooks Reference. If you require further assistance with the development, consider hiring one of our certified WPML contractors who specialize in custom multilingual solutions.

Problem: You are using WPML with WPForms and the WPForms Multilingual plugin, and you're facing an issue where notification emails are not sent in the correct language after translating the form. Despite translating the texts in WPForms, the notification email still contains German text. Solution: We recommend modifying the plugin code to ensure that the notification emails are sent in the correct language. Specifically, you should edit the file wp-content\plugins\wpml-wpforms\classes\Hooks\WpForms\Notifications.php line 95 and comment it out, for example:
This change should help display the correct language in the notification emails as shown in the logs. Please check and confirm if this resolves the issue.

Problema: Il cliente ha bisogno di aggiungere una bandiera giapponese al selettore di lingua nel menu principale che reindirizza a un sito giapponese diverso, non alla stessa installazione multilingue. Soluzione: Attualmente, non esiste una documentazione specifica per aggiungere un link a un sito esterno tramite il selettore di lingua di WPML. Tuttavia, è possibile aggiungere un selettore di lingua personalizzato tramite PHP seguendo la guida disponibile qui. Per integrare un link che reindirizza a un sito esterno, sarà necessario sviluppare una funzione personalizzata. Consigliamo di consultare uno dei nostri contractors per sviluppare questa soluzione personalizzata.
Se questa soluzione non è più rilevante o non si applica al tuo caso, ti invitiamo a verificare i problemi noti, a confermare che hai installato le versioni più recenti di temi e plugin e, se necessario, a aprire un nuovo ticket di supporto.
Problem: The client is using a custom function to add menu items to a WordPress menu based on user login status. However, when adding the WPML language switcher, the custom menu items appear after the language switcher instead of before it. Solution: We recommend modifying the function to ensure that the custom menu items appear before the WPML language switcher. You can use the following code:
add_filter('wp_nav_menu_items', 'add_custom_menu_items_before_wpml', 10, 2);<br />function add_custom_menu_items_before_wpml($items, $args) {<br /> // Your new menu item(s)<br /> if (is_user_logged_in()) {<br /> $custom_items = '<li><a href="' . esc_html_x('/conta/', 'Botão no menu de navegação URL', 'lwp') . '">' . esc_html_x('Conta ', 'Botão no menu de navegação', 'lwp') . '</a> </li>';<br /> $custom_items .= '<li><a href="' . wp_logout_url() . '">' . esc_html_x('Sair ', 'Botão no menu de navegação', 'lwp') . '</a> </li>';<br /> } else {<br /> $custom_items = '<li><a href="' . wp_registration_url() . '">' . esc_html_x('Registar ', 'Botão no menu de navegação', 'lwp') . '</a> </li>';<br /> $custom_items .= '<li><a href="' . esc_html_x('/conta/', 'Botão no menu de navegação URL', 'lwp') . '">' . esc_html_x('Entrar ', 'Botão no menu de navegação', 'lwp') . '</a> </li>';<br /> }<br /> // Find the WPML language switcher and insert before it<br /> $pattern = '/(<li[^>]*class="[^"]*menu-item-wpml-ls[^"]*"[^>]*>)/i';<br /> if (preg_match($pattern, $items, $matches)) {<br /> $items = preg_replace($pattern, $custom_items + $matches[1], $items, 1);<br /> } else {<br /> // Fallback if language switcher not found — append instead<br /> $items += $custom_items;<br /> }<br /> return $items;<br />}

Problem: You are trying to translate a modal box on a global CTA bar using WPML. The Gravity Form is translated, but the title of the modal box and the close button are not appearing in the translation strings. The title uses the dynamic title of Avada, which is similar to the container text and is translatable. Solution: To make the title of the modal box translatable, we added a custom XML configuration. Please add the following code to your WPML settings:

Problem: The client attempted to use a code snippet from a WPML forum post to exclude the product title from automatic translation for testing purposes, but it did not work. The client actually wants to exclude only the main product description from automatic translation while keeping the title and short description translatable. Solution: We explained that the provided code was a basic example and needs adaptation to meet specific requirements. Since the client wants to modify WPML’s default behavior, which is complex, we recommended consulting with a certified WPML contractor for tailored assistance.

Problem: The client wants to configure WPML to use different domains for different languages and add a custom NGINX rule so that when users visit specific URLs (like fishingbooker.de/blog), they are redirected to the corresponding language version on the main site (fishingbooker.com/blog). Solution: We recommend using an NGINX reverse proxy to route traffic from each language-specific domain to the appropriate language directory on the main WordPress installation. Here is an example of how you can set up the NGINX reverse proxy:
Please ensure SSL, cookies, and caching are properly managed, as these are crucial for WordPress and WPML functionality.
