Problem: The client is experiencing issues with translation jobs in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) showing as "In progress" even after completion, and an error message stating "The Advanced Editor jobs synchronization has failed". Additionally, the client is redirected to the translation queue page instead of the ATE when starting new translations.
Solution: 1. Ensure you have a full backup of your website and database. 2. Update all WPML plugins to the latest versions. 3. Cancel any existing translation jobs that are stuck in progress by following this documentation: How to cancel translation jobs. 4. If the issue persists, deactivate all plugins except for WPML and its add-ons to check if there is a conflict. 5. Reactivate each plugin one by one to identify any conflicting plugin. 6. If the problem continues, repeat the steps with a default WordPress theme.

Problem: The client is seeking a way to automatically translate updated content on their English page without overwriting previous manual edits made to automatic translations.
Solution: 1. We recommend reviewing the documentation on Translation Memory to understand how WPML tracks translations. Content edited in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) can be saved to Translation Memory, ensuring it won't be translated again unless the original content changes. However, changes made using the WordPress Editor instead of the WPML editor will not be stored in Translation Memory and will be overwritten by automatic translation. Translation Memory documentation.
2. If the client has manually corrected the content in the ATE and clicked "Complete", the edits are saved to the Translation Memory. There is no need to click "Save to translation memory" separately.
3. To avoid overwriting manual edits, it's best to make changes or edits to the automatic translation directly in the ATE, as these will then be saved in the Translation Memory for future use.
