This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: You are unable to translate locked strings on your site using WPML. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend you try the following steps: 1. Go to WPML -> String Translation. 2. Search for "actions". 3. Delete the admin strings "[wlfmc_options][button-display][wishlist_under_table]0". 4. Check the wishlist page.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. 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 persists, please open a new support ticket.
This is the technical support forum for WPML - the multilingual WordPress plugin.
Everyone can read, but only WPML clients can post here. WPML team is replying on the forum 6 days per week, 22 hours per day.
Thank you for contacting WPML support. While you are waiting for one of my colleagues to take this ticket and work on it, let me provide you with first debugging steps or if I can perhaps help with the issue quickly.
Having the string showing up as locked means that the respective field is already added to WPML through some XML code that comes with the theme or plugin that you are using.
So you don't need to run any extra steps to register it in order to be able to add it to WPML > String Translation. Let us know if it already shows up in WPML > String Translation when you search for it. If so, add the translation to it.
So, one of the reasons why this might be still happening, even if you already translated the string could be caching (local/server/CDN) so please clear all the caching and see if the issue is still happening.
If that does not help, one of my colleagues will soon come to continue support.
I'm Osama from WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.
1) I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.
Your answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.
❌ Please backup your database and website ❌
✙ I need your permission to deactivate and reactivate the plugins and themes and change site configurations. This is also why the backup is critical.
✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.
2) Could you please share your Debug information with me?
You can read a detailed explanation about it here. (http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support)
The debug info will give me a lot of information about how your site is configured.
Thanks for the access details. Please check the following steps:
1- Go to WPML-> String Translation
2- Search for "actions"
3- Delete the admin strings "[wlfmc_options][button-display][wishlist_under_table]0"
4- Check the wishlist page
I've applied the above steps to the dev site. (Kindly check the attached screenshot)
