Problem: You are experiencing a significant slowdown in the WordPress admin panel when managing products in multiple languages using WPML on your WooCommerce site. The site has 23 languages and approximately 4600 products. The slowdown is directly linked to the activation of WPML Multilingual CMS, and deactivating it restores the admin panel speed. Solution: We recommend creating a staging site to safely test without affecting your live environment. You can use the WP Staging plugin for this purpose. Once the staging site is set up, please share the access credentials with us in a private message so we can further investigate the issue and identify specific optimizations or solutions.
Please note that the solution provided might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

Problem: You are experiencing issues with product stock synchronization across translations in your WooCommerce + WPML setup. Specifically, when you edit a product in the default language (Estonian) and set the stock to a certain number, the translated versions (e.g., Lithuanian) do not reflect the correct stock values. This results in incorrect stock displays and the 'Add to Cart' button being disabled, even though the product appears on shop and category pages. Solution: First, ensure that your cache is not outdated and that there are no corrupted product entries in your database. We recommend following the WooCommerce Multilingual troubleshooting steps as outlined in this documentation. If the problem persists, consider setting up a staging site using the WP Staging plugin to replicate the issue in a controlled environment. This will help in conducting further tests to identify if there is a conflict between WPML, WooCommerce, and the Woodmart theme.

Problem: After updating to WordPress 6.7, certain language translations, specifically Estonian and Russian, were not displaying correctly on the client's live e-commerce site. Despite being correctly configured in the String Translation module, some sections like the footer showed English instead of the intended languages. Solution: We initially suggested checking and re-saving the translations for the affected strings in WPML->String Translation. When this did not resolve the issue, we requested access to the site to investigate further. Our investigation revealed that the issue was related to a known problem introduced in WordPress 6.7, affecting string translations. We escalated this to our compatibility team for further analysis. Meanwhile, we advised the client to update to the latest version of WordPress as soon as it was available, which resolved the issue. We also recommended enabling the option 'Automatically load the theme's .mo file using
load_textdomain
' in WPML->Theme and Plugins Localization, which corrected the translation display.
