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

Problem:
You are trying to translate items via the WPML editor for your site, but the translated items are not displayed on an archive page.
Solution:
This issue might be due to the use of the FacetWP plugin on your archive page template. FacetWP is compatible with WPML, but it requires the installation of a bridge plugin to function correctly with WPML. You should have received a notification about this in your WordPress admin. We recommend that you install the bridge plugin and follow the guides provided by WPML and FacetWP for setting up multilingual filters:

After installing the bridge plugin, please verify if the translated items appear as expected on the archive page.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket.

Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate items via the editor in WPML for my site hidden link. I noticed that when I translate items, they are not shown on an archive page. However, if they are already regular items, they are created and linked to the translation. I have made a short video to demonstrate this issue: hidden link.

Symptoms:
Translated items are not shown on an archive page.

Questions:
Why are translated items not appearing on the archive page?
How can I ensure that translated items are shown on the archive page?

Hi,

It seems that this issue is related to the fact that you are using the FacetWP plugin on the template for the archive page. The FacetWP plugin is officially compatible with WPML.

https://wpml.org/plugin/facetwp/

However, when you use it, you must also install the bridge plugin. You have a message about it in the WordPress admin. Please see the attached screenshot. Please read our and FacetWP guides. And install the bridge plugin.

Then please check if things are working for you as you expect them to work.

Regards,
Itamar.
