Hi, Thank you for contacting WPML Support. It seems something went wrong during the WPML installation. If it’s a new site with no translated content, you can reset WPML and set it up again. To do so: === Please backup your database and website === - Please go to WPML >> Support >> Troubleshooting (the link is at the bottom of the support page). >> There, click on “Reset and deactivate WPML” >> then Delete the plugin. - After deleting all WPML data and WPML-related plugins then please install WPML plugins again and I hope now you will not face any issues. Here is the doc for more details: Please let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance. Thank you |

Hi, the biggest problem is there is no Wpml button appearing in the site WordPress dashboard, so i can't access troubleshooting or debug info. |

Thanks for the additional details. Could you please try to add the following code to your active theme's functions.php file and then open a page in the back and/or front-end once: function wpmlsupp_1706_reset_wpml_capabilities() { if ( function_exists( 'icl_enable_capabilities' ) ) { icl_enable_capabilities(); } } add_action( 'shutdown', 'wpmlsupp_1706_reset_wpml_capabilities' ); After that try to follow the suggested steps from the previous reply and let me know how it goes. Thank you |

Hi, thanks for your help, the tab is opened now but i still have the error messages, but i could reach the debug info this time. This warning will disappear once this issue is fixed. 2- There is a problem with the String Translation table in your site. This problem is not causing a problem running the site right now, but can become a critical issue in the future. WPML support team knows how to fix it. Please add a message in the relevant support thread and we'll fix it for you. |

Glad to hear the tabs are open now and thanks for the additional details the debug info seems fine. If the issue still persists after resetting WPML plugin as I suggested here: Your next answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it. === Please backup your database and website === ✙ I would additionally need your permission to deactivate and reactivate Plugins and the Theme and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is essential. Thank you |

I enabled a private input box for your next reply to share the FTP login details. Now, you can remove the code from functions.php file that I shared above and see if it makes any difference. Thank you for your cooperation |

Thank you for providing the login details. I was able to resolve the issue by following the steps in this errata: WPML is now installed and configured correctly, and the errors previously visible on the dashboard have been resolved. Could you please check and confirm? Thank you for your cooperation and patience |

thank you for your help that fixed almost everything, but there is still one problem, the plugin is affecting the Elementor page builder, you can check the home page for example, you will find that there is drop in some blocks, even the custom css that i made to edit main menu isn't appearing, if you deactivate the plugin you will find out what i mean. New threads created by Noman and linked to this one are listed below: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/wpml-plugin-is-affecting-the-elementor-page-builder/ |

Glad to hear that “WPML is missing some records in the languages tables” issue is solved. For “affecting the Elementor page builder” problem, it’s a different issue and will be handled separately as per our support policy. I've created a new ticket for this at: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/wpml-plugin-is-affecting-the-elementor-page-builder/ If the “WPML is missing some records in the languages tables” issue is solved, please mark this ticket as resolved and we will continue working on the above ticket for it. Thank you for your cooperation |
