Used the migration plugin before on a regular site (without Elementor) and works perfect. Now doing a migration on a site built with Elementor and basically nothing happened. All content on the pages still show the qTranslateX formatting with [:IT]text[:EN]text[:RU]text[:]
Also there are supposed to be 30 templates, but they are no longer accessible; screenshot: hidden link
And the site is getting critical errors across the board in the other languages
Site URL: hidden link
Elementor Landing Pages seem to have migrated through, but the Yoast metadata still contains all the qTranslateX formatting too
Does the migration plugin actually work with Elementor or what?
There seems to be an issue with the complex website, but before anything would you please follow the steps below?
- IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website.
- Go to "WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Support > Troubleshooting (link)".
- Click the buttons annotated in the screenshot below one by one and wait for each button process to finish: https://wpml.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/7206941-buttons.png
The steps above are mostly for the errors that you mentioned.
But about the formatting of QTranslateX if those are hardcoded you will need to manually remove them as mentioned in the documentation:
I think the reason the migration failed is because the content is written in Elementor, so not in the regular wp_posts table.
Simple question then (yes or no answer really):
Do you actually have any experience or know of people that have successfully run the migration on an Elementor site?
