Problem: The client was experiencing issues with WPML not functioning correctly due to the WordPress REST API not responding as expected. Additionally, there was a compatibility issue with the Breakdance plugin, which was not working with WPML. Solution: 1.

Problem: The client was experiencing issues with menu item links and labels not updating correctly in the Spanish version of their site. Specifically, the link for 'Recetas' was incorrect, and the footer label 'Guarniciones' was not updating to 'Extras' despite being translated. Solution: The client resolved the issue by editing the menu items to different values, then translating them, and finally restoring the original English values and retranslating. This process seemed to trigger a cache refresh which resolved the issue. Additionally, the WPML support team had suggested verifying and updating translations via WPML → String Translation, synchronizing menus through WPML → WP Menus Sync, clearing site and browser cache, and checking server requirements including increasing the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT.
