Thanks for reaching out and for sharing the previous support thread, that should help us narrow down the issue. To make sure we’re dealing with the same problem, could you please provide a bit more detail about the errors your client is encountering?
Also, to assist you more efficiently, please share the following:
1. The size of these database keys
- wp_installer_settings
- icl_sitepress_settings
- icl_st_settings
2. Please attach the site's debug information, so we can rule out any misconfiguration. - Go to WPML > Support > Debug Information

Thanks for your response. I have attached the debug information as requested, and have included the database key sizes below:
wp_installer_settings: 122,1 kb (too big)
icl_sitepress_settings: 18,27 kb (close to acceptable, but larger than the official WP recommendation of 5-10 kb)
icl_st_settings: 463 bytes (perfect!)
Please note that these numbers are from our own agency site. We have multiple clients affected by the same issue, where the largest key size for the wp_installer_settings key is above 600 kb (ecom site).
Please do not hesitate to give us a shout if you need anything, but please keep in mind that we as an agency are bound both by GDPR and client agreements.
