Problem:

The client is unable to access the 'Translations queue' to review translations before publishing. The page shows a 'loading' circle and does not load the translated content. Additionally, the client encounters several error and deprecated notices related to WordPress functions.

Solution:

We recommend following these steps to resolve the issue:

1) Create a new post for testing.
2) Navigate to WPML>>Translation Management Dashboard.
3) Select the post for translation or update existing translations.
4) Send it to the Translation Basket.
5) Go to WPML>>Translation Management>>Translation Basket.
6) Assign yourself as the translator and send it for translation.
7) Visit WPML>>Translations queue and translate the post by clicking the 'Translate' button.

For more detailed guidance, refer to our documentation on translating your contents.

If the issue persists, try removing yourself from the translators list and then re-adding yourself:

1) Go to WPML>>Translation Management.
2) Click on the 'Translators' tab.
3) Remove yourself from the translators list.
4) Refresh the page.
5) Revisit WPML>>Translation Management>>Translators.
6) Add yourself back as a translator.

Problem:
The client wanted to know how to hide the '+' buttons in the Posts>>All Posts page to avoid clicking them by mistake instead of the 'duplicate' button.
Solution:
We informed the client that there is no direct option to hide the '+' buttons. We suggested that it might be possible through custom coding, but we have not tested this. As an alternative, we recommended hiding the '+' icons via the screen options on the Posts>>All Posts page. If this solution does not apply or is outdated, or if the client is still experiencing issues, we advise opening a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that the latest versions of themes and plugins are installed.
