Problem: You are using WooCommerce with WPML and have encountered an issue where Quick Edit is disabled for some products. The message displayed is: 'Quick edit is disabled for product translations. Please manage product translations from the Translation Dashboard.' Solution: We have intentionally disabled the Quick Edit option for product translations to prevent potential issues, as product parameters are synchronized with the original product. Unfortunately, there is no option to enable Quick Edit for all products. However, you can try using the bulk edit feature as an alternative method for editing products.
Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case.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 at WPML support forum for further assistance.
Problem: You are encountering an issue where, after running a job every hour to update products and attributes in the primary language, the translated products appear without attributes despite having translated attributes created. Solution: We recommend using WPML API hooks to update the attributes of translated products programmatically after updating the attributes of default language products. Here is an example code designed for a cron job context:
add_action('wssupp_custom_cron_job', 'wssupp_custom_task_function');<br />function wssupp_custom_task_function() {<br /><br /> // update the product attributes of a specific product as a demo<br /> $product_id = 21;<br /> $attribute = 'pa_color';<br /> $term_slug = 'yellow';<br /><br /> $original_term = get_term_by( 'slug', $term_slug, $attribute );<br /> $default_language = apply_filters( 'wpml_default_language', NULL );<br /><br /> // Step 1. Programmatically set product attribute for sample default-language post<br /> wp_set_object_terms( $product_id, $term_slug, $attribute );<br /><br /> // Step 2. Get the translations of the product to other languages<br /> $product_trid = apply_filters( 'wpml_element_trid', NULL, $product_id, 'post_product' );<br /> $product_translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_element_translations', NULL, $product_trid, 'post_product' );<br /><br /> // Step 3. Get the term translations<br /> $term_trid = apply_filters( 'wpml_element_trid', NULL, $original_term->term_id, 'tax_'.$attribute );<br /> $term_translations = apply_filters( 'wpml_get_element_translations', NULL, $term_trid, 'tax_'.$attribute );<br /><br /> // Step 4. Iterate over the product translations and update product attribute for each<br /> foreach ($product_translations as $lang => $product_translation) {<br /><br /> if ( $lang == $default_language ) {<br /> continue; // skip default language<br /> }<br /><br /> wp_set_object_terms( $product_translation->element_id, $term_translations[$lang]->term_id, $attribute );<br /> }<br />}<br />

Problem: The client was experiencing a 502 error when trying to update a product through the admin and save the changes by clicking the update button.
