Problem: The client reported that after updating the
post_name
of a translated product, the permalink (URL) does not update to reflect the English version, even after trying to flush rewrite rules. Solution: We suggested using a custom function to ensure that when a post is duplicated in WPML, its permalink (slug) updates to match the original post's slug. Here is the function to add to your theme's functions.php file or a custom plugin:
We also recommended testing this solution in a sandbox environment and recording the process using a tool like https://www.loom.com/ to better understand the issue.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues where the Theme Settings display data for all languages on the same page instead of just the current language after updating WPML plugins. Additionally, there is an error in ACF PRO: Uncaught TypeError: Illegal offset type in isset or empty. Solution: We recommend deleting all field groups from the German and Italian versions completely, including removing them from the trash. Then, access your settings page and set the following options to "Not translatable": - Options Pages (acf-ui-options-page) - Field Groups (acf-field-group) This ensures that only one version of each field group exists. If the fields are still missing, you may need to manually recreate and translate them, or consider restoring the website to a previous state before these changes were made for further review.
