Problem: You are trying to activate the WPML Multilingual CMS plugin on your WordPress site, but encounter an issue where the Plugins page and Back Office load endlessly. This occurs with both versions 4.7.3 and 4.7.2 of the plugin. Solution: The issue might be due to an outdated theme or a conflict with it. We recommend the following steps: 1. Update your theme and any related plugins. 2. If the problem persists, temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme. 3. Try activating the WPML plugin again. 4. If successful, switch back to your original theme. Please ensure to back up your database before making these changes. If these steps do not resolve the issue, it might be helpful to allow us to create a copy of your site for further testing.

Problem: You are trying to activate WPML on your site, but updating the site past PHP version 7.4 breaks the theme. Additionally, activating WPML causes a critical error and crashes the site when accessing the translation dashboard. Solution: We have examined the issue and found that the WPML String Translation plugin causes the dashboard to become unavailable due to a critical error, although no errors are shown in the debug.log. We recommend increasing both the PHP memory limit and the WordPress memory limit to 512 MB to potentially resolve this issue. You can find instructions on how to increase the WordPress memory limit here.
