I have 27 Pages and Elements that I a week ago set to Translation Priority: "Required".
I also updated all translations on these items, so every one of these "Required" items in the Translation Management list was green (Translation completed) for all languages.
When I now check the Translation Management list, with the filter "Required", I only see 12 items in the list - not 27.
For some reason that is beyond me, 15 items have gotten their Translation Priority changed to "Optional".
To make matters even worse, these 15 items, which for some reason now are "Optional", are all out of sync with ATE, and all show the blue "Needs update" icon in the Translation Management list.
The ONLY thing we have done on our website since a week ago was to update an already existing page on our site. On that page, we added these 15 Avada items. Note that we have not CHANGED anything in these items, they were just added to the page.
How can the above addition of Avada library items to a page:
1. Change the Translation Priority from "Required" to "Optional", and
2. Lose the translation synchronization in WPML from the green "Translation completed" to the blue "needs update"?
Normally we don't have to worry about the Translation Priority. It is not mandatory to translate the posts or pages. It is just an alert for the Translation Manager or translator of the site.
Please refer to this article and related tickets for more details, and let us know your feedback.
Also, increase the *MaxInputVars* of PHP settings to *10000* for better performance of the site. Please check the following article for more details and contact your system admin/hosting provider to upgrade this configuration.
1. Adding this line
php_value max_input_vars 10000
to the .htaccess file caused an internal server error on the site so I had to remove it.
2. I already know how to add/change translation priority. Please read my initial message again. The issue I have is that the translation priority gets changed BACK to "Optional", WITHOUT me doing it.
Thank you for the updates. I have one request: please create a post or page for testing with *Translation Priority* set to *Required*, and translate it into a secondary language. Then, confirm whether the bug is reproducible or not.
Additionally, could you check if the *Translation Priority* of any page changes back to *Optional* after you modify it to *Required*?
