[Resolved] Translating Woocommerce attribute with new dashboard

Hello,

Generally, each attribute should be translated together with the product that they are assigned to. Did you already try to edit the original product, save it again, and then translate it?

Further, global attributes that are created at Products > Attributes are translated at WPML > Taxonomy Translation.

You can further sync those global attributes at WooCommerce > WooCommerce Multilingual > Status > Troubleshooting.

If this will not solve the issue, please let me know.

Best regards
Andreas

Did you verify that the attributes are set to "Translatable" at WPML > Settings > Taxonomy Translation? Note, thus only matters for global attributes that were created a Products > Attributes.

Custom attributes, that are created directly on the original product can not be synced globally. They will only be translated, and then each product will be translated with the WPML Translation Editor. Using the WordPress-Editor for translation is not an option in this case.

Did you try to edit the original product, save it again, and then apply the translation using the WPML Translation Editor?

Hello,

I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to the website to investigate the issue further.

You can find the required fields below the comments section when you log in to leave the next reply. The information you provide is private, meaning only you and I can see and access it.

IMPORTANT
Please be sure to back up your website and database before granting us access.
If you can't see the "wp-admin / FTP" fields, your post and website credentials will be set to "PUBLIC." DO NOT publish the data unless you see the required wp-admin / FTP fields.

I may need to install a plugin called "All In One WP Migration" to create a copy of the website so I can investigate the issue further.

However, I would also be very grateful if you could provide a staging site or a copy of the website from your server for this purpose.

If you have any questions about creating such a staging site, you can consult your hosting provider. Please note that WPML must also be registered on this staging site at https://wpml.org/account/websites/.

If you are unable to provide such a copy of the website for testing, please let me know on this ticket.

Your example:

The original product is Hebrew.

The translation is a "Duplicate", which means that it is connected to the original product and will be overwritten each time you update the original product. See screenshot.

I would not suggest creating "Duplicates" and instead creating independent translations for your product.

To do this, open the translated product on the WordPress Editor and inside the right sidebar click "Translate independently".

Further, on the right sidebar of the WordPress Editor, while editing the original product, you will be able to select the translation method for the content.

You can choose:

"WPML Translation Editor" (currently set on this product)
or
"WordPress Editor".

I would suggest translating those products using the WPML Translation Editor.

Also, please take note that at WPML > Settings > Custom Term Meta Translation some fields were set to "Translate" but those fields did not require translation. You only need to set fields to "Translate" if you need their values to show up inside the WPML Translation Editor.
