Problem: If you're using WPML with Learndash and Elementor and encounter the error 'the preview could not be loaded' when trying to edit course content in a second language with Elementor. Solution: We recommend checking your theme's
functions.php
file for any custom functions that might be affecting the URLs of your courses. Specifically, look for a function that modifies the course links based on the language. Here is an example of such a function that could cause issues:
function change_link_corsi( $permalink, $post ) {<br /> if ( $post->post_type === 'sfwd-courses' ) {<br /> $resource_terms = get_the_terms( $post, 'ld_course_category' );<br /> $term_slug = '';<br /><br /> // Get the current language code<br /> $language_code = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', null );<br /><br /> // Dynamically retrieve the slug for the current language<br /> $default_slug = 'i-nostri-corsi'; // Default slug in the primary language<br /> $translated_slug = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_translated_slug', $default_slug, 'sfwd-courses', $language_code, 'post' );<br /><br /> // Fallback to default slug if translation is missing<br /> $translated_slug = $translated_slug ?: $default_slug;<br /><br /> if ( ! empty( $resource_terms ) ) {<br /> foreach ( $resource_terms as $term ) {<br /> if ( $term->slug === 'featured' ) {<br /> continue;<br /> }<br /> $term_slug = $term->slug;<br /> break;<br /> }<br /> }<br /><br /> // Build the final permalink<br /> $permalink = trailingslashit( get_home_url() ) . $translated_slug . '/' . ( $term_slug ? $term_slug . '/' : '' ) + $post->post_name;<br /> }<br /> return $permalink;<br />}<br />add_filter( 'post_type_link', 'change_link_corsi', 10, 2 );
Try commenting out or adjusting this function and see if Elementor loads correctly.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues with creating English courses using Learndash on an Italian website. The permalinks for the courses are incorrect and not translated, leading to 404 errors and too many redirects. Solution: 1. Ensure that Learndash is translated using the WordPress Editor. For more details, visit https://wpml.org/plugin/learndash-lms/. 2. Duplicate the course with WPML and set it as independent. Adjust the permalink settings in WordPress and translate the slug in WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation. 3. Take note, that this issue was related to custom code in the child theme's functions.php file and we provided a workaround for the issue. 5.
