Reported for: WPML Multilingual CMS 4.7.0
Overview of the issue
If you have a previous WPML version and update WPML CMS before WPML String Translation and WooCommerce Multilingual, your WordPress admin will display a fatal error.
Workaround
You will need to recover WPML by deactivating the plugin VIA FTP/SSH.
We are working on a fix, and it’ll be released soon.
I deleted the plugins via ftp and tried to upload the wpml multilingual cms plugin afterwards within wordpress. this caused a 406 error
Not Acceptable
An appropriate representation of the requested resource could not be found on this server.
This caused my whole server to crash with all domains on it.
Any idea to re-activate the plugins? Do I have to upload the plugin-files via ftp so it works?
– You can deactivate WPML by renaming the plugin folder (sitepress-multilingual-cms) in …/wp-content/plugins/
– After that you should be able to access your WordPress dashboard again
– So you can upload the plugins in the other I mentioned earlier either from the WP dashboard or via FTP
Tried to upload the plugin-files via ftp, but even then, when trying to activate them, the site crashes
Hi Simon,
The issue is that String Translation will be temporarily deactivated (since it’s outdated) when updating WPML, and that’s what is creating the issue with WooCommerce Multilingual. Could you please try to update String Translation First, then WPML and last WooCommerce Multilingual?
You can download all our plugins directly from your WPML account.
Is there any ETA for the fix?
We are working on releasing an update ASAP, please follow our updates and announcements.

I am sorry about this. You will need to update WPML manually: https://wpml.org/faq/updating-wpml-manually/.
We will be very happy to help you with this; if you need, please open a report in the WPML Support forum – https://wpml.org/forums/forum/english-support/
