Problem: You are trying to create translations for the Dutch language, but some pages aren't connected to the correct main translation page. Solution: We recommend manually linking already translated pages using the WPML UI. You can follow the step-by-step guide here: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-link-already-translated-pages/ If you are considering creating a custom query, it might be useful to understand how WPML stores language data in the database. You can find more information here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-tables/ However, we strongly advise against direct modifications to the database unless absolutely necessary, as this can lead to unexpected issues.

Problem: If you're experiencing an issue where the ACF clone field does not honor the translation setting in WPML, and you have tried using custom code or themes, this might be relevant to you. Solution: First, we recommend testing the issue on a clean WordPress installation with only WPML plugins, ACF, and the default WordPress theme to rule out any conflicts with custom code or themes. You can do this by setting up a test site and replicating the issue there. If the problem persists, try the following workaround:
private function isTranslatableInPreferences( $fieldName )
. 3. In this function, locate the line that returns true at the end and change it to false.
This change might resolve the issue by adjusting how translation preferences are handled for ACF clone fields.

Problem: The client wants to understand how redirects based on IP and/or Browser Settings work when using the GeotargetingWP plugin in combination with WPML. They are interested in knowing which of the two (IP or Browser Setting redirects) has higher priority and if it's possible to alter this priority or create combination rules. Solution: We explained that the redirect option in WPML is managed with JavaScript and its priority depends on whether the GeotargetingWP plugin triggers before the JavaScript or not. We clarified that WPML does not have an option for browser redirects, so combined rules are only possible if GeotargetingWP allows for them, which we believe is not the case. We recommended checking the GeotargetingWP documentation for more information:
We also pointed out that the Lite version of GeotargetingWP will not work with WPML and suggested checking the following WPML hooks for potential enhancements or integration with Geotargeting plugins:
