Reported for: WPML Multilingual CMS 4.5.8
Overview of the issue
If you are using Mailchimp for WordPress (MC4WP) with WPML and you go to WPML → Translation Management, the Edit link points to a broken URL.
Workaround
Please, make a full backup of your site before proceeding.
- Open your theme functions.php file.
- Add the following code:
add_filter( 'wpml_document_edit_item_link', 'document_edit_item_link', 10, 5 ); function document_edit_item_link( $link, $text, $current_document, $prefix, $type ) { if ( "mc4wp-form" !== $type ) { return $link; } $query = []; $query['page'] = 'mailchimp-for-wp-forms'; $query['view'] = 'edit-form'; $query['admin_bar'] = 1; $query['form_id'] = $current_document->ID; $query['lang'] = $current_document->language_code; $url_parsed = array(); $url_parsed['query'] = http_build_query( $query ); $url = http_build_url( get_admin_url( null, 'admin.php' ), $url_parsed ); $url = esc_url( $url, null, 'redirect' ); return "<a href='$url'>$text</a>"; } add_filter( 'wpml_document_view_item_link', 'document_view_item_link' , 10, 5 ); function document_view_item_link( $link, $text, $job, $prefix, $type ) { if ( "mc4wp-form" !== $type ) { return $link; } return ''; }
It’s 2023. Why isn’t that code integrated into “MailChimp Multilingual” plugin?
Also, it would be nice if you could rename your plugin to match the current name which is “MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress”. The plugin could be named: “MC4WP: Mailchimp for WordPress multilingual” in your download dashboard as it’s confusing.
Thank you!
Thank you for your feedback Jean-François. This fix is already in our devs roadmap, we will keep this erratum updated.
I’ll also communicate your suggestion regarding this add-on name confusion.

Hello Andrés,
I’m having the same problem and I tried to implement given code but it only ended up when I click on edit it redirects me to the plug-in as if I want to edit the form rather than translating it, would you let me know how is it possible to translate MailChimp forms.
Best,
Hello there,
Sure, you should be able to translate your forms from WPML > Translations.
Keep in mind that this issue is only if you want to edit your original form in WPML > Translation Management.
I hope it helps.
This solution does not work it does not help to translate MailChimp forms
Hello again,
As I mention in my previous response, MailChimp forms translations should be done in from WPML > Translations.

The same for me: I can find no way to create and edit a translation of the MC4WP module. Why is it so complicated?
