Problem: The client is trying to use WPML's AI translation feature but finds the available language options limited. Additionally, they are experiencing an issue with an unwanted globe icon appearing next to the menu language switcher in the Buddyboss platform. Solution: For the AI translation feature, WPML AI is currently available in a limited number of languages, and more are being added over time. Clients can check the list of available languages here. If the current languages do not meet the client's needs, it is recommended to use other translation engines like DeepL. Instructions for changing translation engines can be found here. For the issue with the Buddyboss platform, the client should try the workaround provided in the WPML errata here. If that does not resolve the issue, a CSS solution is available here.

Problem: The client experienced issues with the WPML plugin causing conflicts on a platform using BuddyBoss. When WPML was activated, groups on the listing page were not accessible. Solution: We clarified that BuddyBoss Groups are not translatable by default; only the group title and description can be translated using WPML String Translation. Upon testing with the latest BuddyBoss Platform update, it appears that updating BuddyBoss resolves the issue. If you're experiencing similar issues, we recommend updating your BuddyBoss Platform and checking if the problem persists. Additionally, ensure that you are using the latest version of WPML and other plugins. For further assistance, please visit our support forum.

Problem: The client is unable to activate the WPML String Translation plugin, even after updating all plugins, the theme, and WordPress itself. The issue persists with WPML 4.6.15 and String Translation 3.3.1. Solution: We recommend deactivating all plugins and then reactivating them one by one to identify any conflicts. In this case, the issue occurred with the BuddyBoss Integration and BuddyBoss Platform plugins. Here are the steps to resolve the issue: 1. Take a backup of your site. 2. Deactivate the BuddyBoss Integration and BuddyBoss Platform plugins. 3. Try activating the WPML String Translation plugin first. 4. Reactivate the BuddyBoss plugins. 5. Ensure all plugins are updated to their latest versions.
