Problem: The client experienced issues with their QA site (qa.instron.com) displaying the same credit balance as the production site after cloning and attempting to manage sitekeys and credits through WPML. Despite unregistering and re-registering the sitekey for the QA site, the credit balance remained unchanged, and the QA site disappeared from the WPML account's manage credits page. Solution: We recommended a complete refresh of the registration process to ensure proper synchronization between the QA site and the WPML account. The steps included: 1. Removing any existing QA site registrations from the WPML account. 2. Unregistering WPML from the QA site via the WordPress dashboard. 3. Generating a new site key for the QA site and registering it without assigning specific credits. 4. Verifying the credit display and site listing on the WPML account. Despite these steps, the issue persisted, indicating a deeper synchronization problem possibly related to how WPML handled the site as a 'copy' during the registration process. We then explored details of the migration wizard settings used during the process.

Problem: If you're experiencing issues with auto translation not working for Saved Rows in Beaver Builder when using WPML, it might be due to a compatibility issue. The content of Saved Rows does not appear in the Advanced Translation Editor, preventing automatic translation. Solution: We recommend the following steps to address this issue: 1. Enable Beaver Builder Template Translation: - Go to WPML → Settings. - Open Post Types Translation. - Find “Templates (fl-builder-template)”. - Change it from Not Translatable → Translatable – only show translated items. - Click Save. 2. Send Templates and Pages for Translation: - Go to WPML → Translation Dashboard. - You will now see a new section for Beaver Builder Templates. - Select the Beaver Builder template (the saved row) and the page that uses this saved row. - Scroll down and send for translation. 3. Complete the Translation: - If you use Automatic Translation, WPML will translate it. - If translating manually: - Go to WPML → Translations. - Open the job and finish the translation. 4. IMPORTANT Manual Step (Required Every Time You Use a Saved Row): A. Open the Translated Page in Beaver Builder: - Go to Pages and open the page that contains the saved row. - Click the three dots (top right) and disable Fullscreen Mode so you can see the top admin bar. - Use the language switcher to switch to the translated language (e.g., Spanish). - Click Edit Anyway. - Launch Beaver Builder in the translated version of the page. B. Re-select the Translated Saved Row: - Click the module/element where you insert the saved row. - Click Edit. - The saved row is not selected by default. - Manually select the translated version of the row. - Save and publish the translated page.

Problem: The client frequently updates their QA server with data from the production environment, which involves changing URLs and reactivating WPML. This process often results in site keys becoming inactive and a loss of translation credits. The client seeks a way to synchronize the QA and production environments without losing credits and to recover lost credits. Solution: 1. Ensure that the QA domain name remains consistent when reactivating WPML to avoid unnecessary site key changes. 2. Navigate to WPML > Support > Troubleshooting Link and share the Advanced Translation Editor ID for both production and staging sites. 3. We have resolved issues on our translation server that were causing lost credits and multiple activations with the same domain name. This should prevent similar issues in the future. 4. Always generate a new sitekey when activating WPML on a new domain to avoid conflicts.
