Problem:
You are developing an e-commerce site and have used automatic translation. Despite adding the brand name 'Glare' to the glossary to keep it untranslated, it was incorrectly translated in product descriptions. Solution:
Currently, there is no feature in WPML to automatically retranslate all products to ensure 'Glare' remains untranslated in all languages. You will need to manually check and correct the translations:
1. Navigate to WPML > Translation Management.
2. Select and send the pages you want to fix for translation.
3. Choose the "Translate myself" option.
4. Go to WPML > Transactions.
5. Open the segments and either:
- Fix the incorrect texts manually for free.
- Use automatic translation for that specific segment, which will cost credits.
Please note that any form of retranslation will incur costs as it involves more than just replacing a glossary entry.

Problem: The client has an ecommerce project named Glare, and they encountered an issue where the project name 'Glare' was incorrectly translated into other languages in their multilingual site setup using WPML. The client created a glossary entry to prevent this but was concerned about updating existing translations without incurring additional costs. Solution: We recommended the client to utilize the WPML glossary feature to manage how specific terms are translated, ensuring names like 'Glare' are not mistakenly translated in future content. For detailed steps on creating and managing glossary entries, visit How to Create and Manage Glossary Entries. Additionally, to address the concern about updating existing translations without extra costs, we informed the client about WPML's translation memory feature, which prevents charges for re-translating the same content. The client can resend the pages for translation via WPML > Translation Management without being charged again for the same translations.

Problem: The client was experiencing an issue where clicking the Slovak flag on their website redirected to an incorrect URL instead of switching back to the Slovak version of the site. Solution: We recommended the following steps to diagnose and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Clear Cache: We advised clearing WPML’s internal cache from WPML > Support > Troubleshooting > Clear the cache in WPML, disabling the Language Switcher Cache, clearing any site caching plugins, and the CDN cache if applicable. 2. Use Footer Language Switcher: We suggested activating a footer language switcher from WPML > Languages to check if the issue persists with a different switcher setup. 3. Test in Minimal Environment: We recommended deactivating all plugins except WPML CMS and switching temporarily to a default WordPress theme like Twenty Twenty-one to see if the issue still occurs. This helps in identifying any conflicts with other plugins or themes.
Ultimately, the client discovered that the issue was caused by incorrect custom codes provided by their hosting service for redirecting www/non-www URLs in the wp-config file. Removing these codes resolved the problem.

Problem: The client is experiencing a 404 error when accessing the www version of their translated domain. The non-www version works correctly, but the www version redirects to an English 404 page instead of the correct language homepage.
Solution: We recommend checking with the hosting support to ensure that both "https://www.titori.sk" and "https://titori.sk" are correctly configured on the server. This because WPML is set up to handle the domain titori.com with the configuration of "Different languages in directories", and the redirections from language folders to domain titori.sk are managed by a separate "301 Redirect" plugin.
