Problem: The client is using Hostinger for hosting and wants to enable the staging feature to make changes on a subdomain (e.g., stage.turkmenexporter.com) without affecting the live site. The client is concerned about whether the WPML plugin will remain active and functional on the staging subdomain.
Solution: 1. We informed the client that WPML should work fine on the staging site, but issues might arise with registering WPML if the correct URL is not used when generating the WPML key. 2. We advised the client to create a full website backup and ensure that the domain shown in the WordPress General Settings is the one used when creating a new WPML key on the WPML account sites page. 3. We provided a screenshot from the WPML purchase page to clarify the number of available keys for production/live and dev/staging sites based on the client's subscription. 4. We created custom Google search URLs to help the client find existing tickets with solutions for similar issues:
5. We mentioned that the disappearance of notifications in the WordPress backend could be due to automatic cache clearing.
Please note that the solution provided might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case.

Problem: The client was concerned about a missing 'Flavor' attribute in WooCommerce >> WooCommerce Multilingual > Attributes tab, which was not appearing alongside another attribute 'HS Codes'. Additionally, the client noticed values like '18 left' on the troubleshooting page, which they thought should be '0 left', and was unsure whether to address these.
Solution: We advised the client that if an attribute does not appear under Products -> Attributes in the WordPress dashboard, it will not be visible in the WooCommerce Multilingual -> Attributes tab. To resolve this, the client should manually add the missing 'Flavor' attribute from the product edit screen. However, this will not make it appear in the WooCommerce Multilingual -> Attributes tab. If the client feels that something might be wrong due to the missing attribute, we recommend adding it manually.
For the values like '18 left' seen on the troubleshooting page, these indicate items that may need attention. We suggest the client review each option that does not show '0 left' and press 'Start' to address them.
