Problem: You are working on a site under development and trying to translate Germanized Free Strings using WPML, but the translation does not work. Solution: We recommend following these steps to resolve the issue: 1. Add the following XML in WPML >> Settings > Custom XML Configuration section:
2. Navigate to the WPML >> String Translation page and search for the checkbox text. 3. If the English language is assigned to the German string, select that string and assign the German language using the "Change the language of selected strings" dropdown. 4.

Problem: You are developing a site and need to add a custom currency or set different prices for different languages using the same currency. You found that the multi-currency plugin allows adding currencies like Solana or Bitcoin, and you are wondering if you can add your own custom currency to set different prices per currency. Solution: 1) Adding a custom currency is not a feature provided by WPML but by WooCommerce. You should add your custom currency to WooCommerce, and then you can use it in WPML/WCML. We recommend checking the WooCommerce developer documentation on how to add a custom currency symbol here: https://woocommerce.com/document/add-a-custom-currency-symbol/ 2) It is not possible to set different prices for different languages using the same currency in WPML. Each language version of a product is a translation of another, so the content and prices should remain consistent unless they are created as separate products.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with translating the checkout page using WPML, specifically when the page is built using WooCommerce blocks. The checkout page displays in the wrong language for Austrian German (de_AT), as WooCommerce currently does not support translation for certain elements in custom languages when using blocks.
Solution: 1. Ensure a full backup of the website is made. 2. If using blocks on the checkout page, replace them with the WooCommerce shortcode:
[woocommerce_checkout]
. 3. Update the translations after changing to the shortcode. 4. This method allows the use of WPML String Translation to handle the translations effectively.

Problem: The client is developing a site and considering using WPML. They want to know if WPML supports using a CDN when configuring different domains for each language. Solution: We confirm that WPML supports using a CDN with different domains for each language. Here is a step-by-step guide to setting this up: 1. Configure WPML for Different Domains: - Navigate to WPML → Languages. - Select "A different domain per language" and specify your domains (e.g., example.com for English, example.fr for French). - Ensure each domain is correctly pointed to your WordPress site through DNS settings. - For further details, refer to our complete guide on different domains: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-url-options/how-to-use-wpml-with-different-domains-per-language/ 2. Set Up Your CDN: - Add each language domain as a separate "pull zone" in your CDN. - Configure caching rules to ensure language-specific assets (such as images and scripts) are not mixed between domains. 3. Manage SSL and Cache: - If using HTTPS, ensure each domain has a valid SSL certificate. - Clear your WordPress and CDN caches to ensure all settings take effect.

Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where WPML does not recognize HTML tags like breaks or P tags in the ACF WYSIWYG editor.
Solution: We recommend turning off the 'big segments' preference in ATE, as this has resolved the issue in our tests. If the problem persists, try enabling the option 'Use the previous version of the Advanced Translation Editor' in ATE, make a small change in your ACF field content, save it, and attempt to translate again. For more details, please refer to the errata page at https://wpml.org/errata/disabling-i-prefer-bigger-segments-is-not-working-properly/.
