Problem: You are trying to translate WooCommerce products using WPML and want the translated versions to automatically update when modifications are made to the original products, such as price changes or variations. However, the changes to the original products are not automatically syncing to the translated versions. Solution: 1. Navigate to WPML → Taxonomy Translation, select the attribute you want to synchronize, and run the 'Synchronize attributes and update product variations' option. 2. Go to WooCommerce → WPML Multilingual & Multicurrency for WooCommerce → Status, click on the Troubleshooting link at the bottom, and execute the appropriate troubleshooting options. Remember to back up your database before making any changes.
Regarding your query about SKUs, the original product and its translations share the same SKU. This is because WPML treats them as language variants of the same item, not as separate products. Therefore, you should not encounter issues with duplicate SKUs when using WPML.

Go to your taxonomies list screen. 2. Switch the language filter to the language of the missing image, for example, English. 3. Edit the category where the image is missing, such as "Chechia". 4.

Open the homepage for editing in the default language in Elementor. 3. Add a label to the menu widget, save, and exit to WordPress. 4. Update the English translation and ensure the label is available for translation. 5. Translate the label and save the translation. Additionally, ensure that Elementor is updated to the latest version. If the problem persists on the live site, please take a full backup before updating Elementor.
