Turkish Course is listed on the English course search

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Using LearnPress LMS, the search feature returns all the courses, not by language.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, make sure you have active the addon WPML Add-on for LearnPress. It is necessary to enable search functionality specific to each language.

Otto	Hi, The "search" feature seems to come from the theme or a theme add-on. Thimpress (authors of the theme and LearnPress add-ons) has another extension: hidden link Add-on for LearnPress">WPML Add-on for LearnPress which is not installed on your site. Can you please check with the Thimpress support if this addon is needed to allow per language search? Best Regards, Otto

bernaT	An extension was installed, and the problem persists. The Turkish and English courses can be found together when you search for free courses 🙁 hidden link Best

Otto	Hello, The add-on is not active. I tried to activate it on your site, and it turned back to inactive. Then, on my local copy of your site, I deactivated all the non-relevant plugins, and then I was able to activate the add-on, and it fixed the issue on the search page displaying only the courses in the right language. So, there seems to be a compatibility problem between the LearnPress-WPML addon (by Thimpress) and some other component in your site. I suggest you try the following to determine which one: IMPORTANT: Please try this in a staging environment or at least with a backup of your site files and database before continuing. Disable all plugins except WPML and LearnPress. And their add-ons. Then, try to activate the LearnPress WPML add-on, and if it works, check if the search issue is fixed. Best Regards, Otto

bernaT	I have set up a staging test environment and activated the plugin as you suggested. After activation, I reactivated all the plugins, and they appeared to work fine. It seems that the order of activation is crucial in this process. I will follow the same procedure for the live website tonight at midnight and will keep you updated on the results. Thank you! Best
