Problem: You are managing a client's website with WPML in three languages (NL, NL-BE, FR-BE) and encountering issues with variable products in WooCommerce Bundle Products showing as 'Out of stock' or 'Temporarily unavailable', despite correct stock settings. You have tried troubleshooting through WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual without success. Solution: The issue might not be related to WPML but could be a known issue with WooCommerce itself, especially if it occurs with the original content. We recommend testing the site with an original content while having WPML and WooCommerce Multilingual (WCML) disabled to confirm if the problem persists. This step will help determine whether the issue is indeed with WooCommerce and not WPML.
If the problem is related to WPML or WCML after testing, please do not hesitate to contact us for further assistance. 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 issue still persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
Problem: You are using WPML and ACF and are trying to automatically translate texts from the ACF options pages but cannot find how to do so. Solution: Unfortunately, it is not possible to automatically translate texts from the ACF options pages using WPML. An ACF options page is not treated as a regular page in your database. As a result, it always needs to be translated manually and cannot be automatically translated like a standard post or page. If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, we recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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 you still need assistance, please open a new support ticket at our support forum.
Problem: In a WooCommerce shop with multiple languages, the 'product-category' slug was translated for different languages. However, for the German language, setting the slug to 'produkte' results in a 404 error when visiting the page. The backend shows the Dutch translation instead.
Solution: We analyzed the issue and determined it is not directly related to WPML or WooCommerce, but rather to the permalink structure used. WordPress uses specific rules to determine what content to display based on the URL visited. If both single products and product categories share a similar permalink base (e.g., site.com/products/), WordPress may struggle to differentiate between product requests and product category archive requests, leading to errors like the one experienced. We recommend changing the permalink structure so that products and product categories do not use the same base. For example, use 'products' for the product category base and '/product/%product_cat%/' for the custom product base. This adjustment should resolve the issue.

Problem: The client has automatically translated their GravityForms using WPML and now needs to make slight changes to the translations. Solution: We recommend that the client sends the form again for translation and updates the translation in the WPML editor. This can be done by navigating to WPML -> Translation Management. For detailed instructions, please check the following documentation:

Problem: The client needed assistance with translating two custom menu items that were not automatically translated on their multilingual website. Solution: We advised the client that WordPress automatically displays an array of pages in the menu if no menu is set, even without WPML. To resolve the issue, the client should create a translated version of their menu. Once a menu in another language exists, they can manually add a translated label or custom item in the second language. We also reminded the client to refer to the documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#option-2-translating-menus-manually
