Problem: You are running a WooCommerce website with products in English and Greek, and you want to have different SKUs for the Greek products. However, the SKU field is locked on the Greek version of the products, as WPML forces the SKU to be copied from the original language. Solution: Unfortunately, WooCommerce Multilingual does not support independent SKU editing for translated products as you described. If you need to recreate products in bulk with different SKUs, you can use the default WooCommerce export/import tool. For more details on exporting, visit WPML export and import documentation. If your workflow requires a different approach, you may need to develop a custom solution, possibly by hooking into our functionality or creating a custom SKU field that behaves according to your specific needs.

Problem: You have changed the product category slug to 'category' for the English version of your site, but in the German version, the URL still shows as 'produkt-kategorie' instead of 'kategorie'.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues where filters translated using WPML are displaying correctly in English but not in German on their WooCommerce site. Additionally, they cannot add German categories in the WooCommerce coupon section, only English ones. Solution: We recommend checking that all necessary categories are correctly translated and assigned in WPML. For the filters not appearing in German, ensure that the correct taxonomies are selected for each filter. You can do this by visiting the filter settings page for the German language. Here is a link to guide you: Translating Widgets Documentation. For the issue with adding German categories in the WooCommerce coupon section, ensure that these categories are fully translated and available in German. If they are not, you will need to translate these categories using WPML.

Problem: The client was experiencing a 404 error when trying to access courses in languages other than the default after translating them using WPML. Additionally, some content under the Curriculum tab and sidebar elements like 'Add to Wishlist' and 'Share' were not translated on the course page. Solution: 1. We recommended ensuring that the course slug remains the same across all languages. This can be checked by going to Pages > All Pages in the secondary language, using the 'Quick Edit' to verify that the slug matches the default language. 2. For the 404 error, we suggested refreshing the permalinks by navigating to Settings > Permalinks and clicking 'Save Changes' without making any edits. 3. For untranslated strings under the Curriculum tab and in the sidebar, we advised using 'WPML > String Translation' to search for the specific text and add translations. If certain texts are not found, we recommended following the guide on this page.
