Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with the gear icon appearing after manually updating translations using the Classic WPML Editor, and suspect it's causing unnecessary database growth due to repeated update prompts, this might be due to an object cache interference.
Solution:
We recommend disabling the object cache while performing translations to prevent this issue. Additionally, you can enhance the system by implementing a specific plugin designed to handle such cases. Here are the steps to create and add the plugin:
1. Navigate to the

/wp-content/

folder on your site.
2. Create a folder named 'mu-plugins' if it doesn't exist.
3. Inside the 'mu-plugins' folder, create a new PHP file (e.g., 'wpml-non-persistent-cache.php') and insert the following code:

<?php<br />/**<br /> * Plugin Name: WPML Non-Persistent Cache<br /> * Description: A plugin to prevent persistent caching issues<br /> * Author: OnTheGoSystems<br /> * Author URI: https://wpml.org/errata/problems-with-buddypress-multilingual-and-redis-object-cache/<br /> * Version: 1.0.0<br /> * Plugin Slug: compdev-220<br /> */<br /><br />wp_cache_add_non_persistent_groups([<br />    'convert_url',<br />    'element_translations',<br />    'get_pages_adjust_ids',<br />    'get_user_admin_language',<br />    'translation_priority_relationships',<br />    'translationmanagement--get_translation_job_id',<br />    'wpml_cache_terms_per_lang',<br />    'wpml_endpoints_support',<br />    'wpml_pre_option_page',<br />    'wpml_register_string_filter',<br />    'wpml_register_string_filter--facetwp',<br />    'wpml_slug_translation_records--post',<br />    'wpml_slug_translation_records--taxonomy',<br />    'wpml_st_cache',<br />    'wpml_term_translation',<br />    'wpml_tm_blog_translators--has_translators',<br />    'wpml_wp_cache__group_keys',<br />]);

Problem:
The client is experiencing issues with WPML taking up a large portion of the database and automatic translation updates occurring despite using manual translations. The client wants to prevent these automatic updates and reduce the database size.
Solution:
1. To manage ongoing translation jobs, navigate to WPML > Translation Management > Jobs and cancel all ongoing and in-progress jobs. For any pages still showing an in-progress status, manually save or update them in the second language.
2. For issues related to database size, refer to the errata on reducing the size of WPML tables: https://wpml.org/errata/reducing-size-of-icl_translate_job-icl_translate-and-other-wpml-tables/
3. Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) field groups should be set as not translatable to avoid unnecessary translations: https://wpml.org/errata/advanced-custom-fields-field-group-should-be-set-as-not-translatable/
