Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate a whole page from Danish to English on my site hidden link using WPML. I have done this many times before without any problem.
Symptoms:
The 'settings' icon just keeps spinning and nothing happens after attempting the translation.
Questions:
Why is the 'settings' icon spinning indefinitely after attempting a translation?
How can I resolve the issue of translation not completing?
Ok, you closed the chat before I had the chance to write anything.. That's annoying. I had some more questions.. And I just wanted to make sure that you actually understood the issue.
To understand the issue better please watch this video:

And here is my question:
Why can I no longer update to the newest versions of the WPML plugins from plugins? Why do I have to download them in a different way now (pls see the chat transcript what the supporter made me do.)
I made some tests on your website, and it seems that there was a glitch creating the translation information from the original page, thus impeding its translation from being created.
Make sure to have a backup before proceeding.
To verify that, please delete and recreate the Vores medarbejdere page. You can save its content as a template, or copy it, so you don't have to recreate it from scratch. After that, please empty all caches and try retranslating the new version. I know this takes some effort, so I really appreciate your cooperation here 🙂 Let me know how it goes.
I think it works again. It looks like you created a new page for the english translation called vores-medarbejdere-test-en - most of the stuff on that page was already translated. only needed a small part. I did that, saved and renamed the page to our-employees - and now it all works as it should.
