Problem: The client's WooCommerce site, set to 'Translate all' and 'Publish without revision,' was not automatically updating product translations after changes in the original language. Products updated by a third-party application were queued with 'Waiting for translator' status, and attempts to manually update translations resulted in an 'ateJobCreationError=101' error. Solution: We recommended ensuring that the WPML settings were configured correctly: 'Publish without review' should be enabled, and the Advanced Translation Editor set as the default. We also advised checking that 'pay as you go' was activated with sufficient credits. For the specific error 'ateJobCreationError=101', which indicated issues with the XLIFF files not belonging to the system, we suggested checking the ATE error logs for more details. If the problem persisted, we recommended manually making a small change to the affected products and updating them, which could help restart the automatic translation process. Additionally, disabling 'Translate Everything Automatically' temporarily could help manage and resolve stuck translation jobs in the WPML > Translation Management page.
