This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client needs to manually translate the translated product SKUs in WooCommerce, but finds that the field is locked and cannot edit them using the usual steps in WPML.
Solution:
We, the WPML Support team, recommend not changing SKU settings for translated products, as our "WooCommerce Multilingual & Multi-Currency" plugin is designed to sync details like price and SKU between original products and their translations. Changing the SKU can cause unexpected behavior in aspects such as stock. Instead of translating the products, we suggest creating a separate product per language. To do this:
1. Change the language in the top administration bar.
2. Create a new product for each language, which will result in separate products per language.
If this solution is not relevant to your case, because it is outdated or simply does not apply to your situation, we suggest opening a new support ticket. We also highly recommend reviewing known issues, checking the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you need further assistance, feel free to contact us on the WPML support forum.
