Problem: The client reported receiving numerous warnings in their logs and experiencing API timeouts related to WPML's translation jobs.
Solution: 1. We requested temporary access to the client's wp-admin and FTP to investigate the issue and asked for steps to reproduce the problem. We emphasized the importance of backing up the site and database before proceeding, recommending the Duplicator plugin for this purpose. 2. Our development team created a modified version of WPML 4.6.7 to better log the XLIFF errors the client encountered. We asked the client to back up their site and confirm if we could install this package. We provided a link to view the contents of the package.
Problem:
I'm using WP Menus Sync but the navigation label (page title) of the menu item in the second language displays the title of the page in the original language. Solution:
- Go to WPML > Settings > Custom Fields Translation section > Click on "Show system fields".
- Search for the field "_menu_item_object_id" > Set the preference to "Don't Translate" > Save changes.
- Go to Appearance > Menus > Delete the translation menus and re-sync them again in WPML > WP Menus Sync. Relevant Documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-custom-fields/

For Automatic translation :
At present, WPML’s automatic string translation feature only works for content that matches the default language of the website. If you attempt to use the Translate Everything Automatically mode or send strings for automatic translation that do not match the default language, they will instead be added to the Translations Queue.
For 12 ghost pending translation :
This is a known issue that should be fixed in WPML 4.6.5 version
