Problem:
The translated version of my JQuery Slider (original: French, Translated: English and Dutch) are not showing.
Solution:
Go to:
- WPML → Settings → Post Types Translation and set Slider Posts (karma-slider) to Not translatable;
- WPML → Settings → Taxonomies Translation and set Categories (karma-slider-category) to Not translatable.
Once you do this, edit the homepage to make sure that the right category is selected, then go back to WPML → Settings and change the two elements to Translatable - only show translated items.
Problem:
Somewhere in after the recent updates following WooCommerce 3.0, I have lost the ability to see the "Content / Description" translated text in my WPML editor even if this same translated text is visible on my Product page. Not all the products are affected, but most of them. If I try to translate a new product, everything is ok. So, only some of the products that have already been translated before updates are affected. Solution:
The "affected" products were translated using the native WooCommerce interface so they are not using the new shortcode translation system.
The new translation system uses the String Translation plugin to register the shortcodes as strings. See the attached documentation.
As the "Content / Description" field is added using a Visual Composer shortcode, it is now registered as a string.
If you need to edit the translated Content / Description field in the products translated using the "old" system, you can use one of these methods:
1. Enable the "Native WooCommerce product editing screen" option in WooCommerce -> WooCommerce Multilingual -> Settings.
Problem:
Product category links are returning 404 error page
Solution:
Go to Settings -> Permalinks and in the product category field, I typed product-category. It looked like it was already entered but it was just a placeholder. I then went to WPML -> String Translation and deleted the previous translations for product-category. After rescanning the WooCommerce plugin for strings (in WPML -> Theme and Plugin Localization), I went back to the String Translation table and added the translation for product-category. After saving that, the category links seem to be working correctly now.
Problem:
Enable Estimated Delivery Dates were not showing correctly. Solution:
The plugin's author has found the problem and fixed it.
This plugin is not in our compatibility list.
Problem:We detected that the product_type field was set incorrectly for some product translations. This happened because the product_type taxonomy was translated. You can fix this in the WooCommerce Multilingual troubleshooting page
Solution:use FTP to go to your theme, then find the wpml-config.xml file and edit it.
You will need to find
product_type
once you do please remove that and save.
Once you go back to your dashboard you will need to clear your browsers cache and the notification will be removed. (check with incognito window)
Problem:Woocommerce strings translated don't appear on my website
Solution: Please visit WPML>>Theme and plugins localization page and confirm you have choose *Translate the theme and plugins using WPML's String Translation* option for *Select how to translate strings in the theme and plugins* . If not please select(after a backup) it and check
