Problem: The client was experiencing issues with the WPML Media Translation plugin where images uploaded while editing in different languages were not being associated correctly with those languages. Solution: We clarified that when using the WPML plugin, any images uploaded while editing a page are automatically associated with the language currently being used. For instance, if you're editing the Spanish version of a page, any image uploaded during this session will initially be linked to Spanish. You can then translate this image into other languages as needed. Similarly, images uploaded while editing the English version will be associated with English. This feature helps WPML determine the original language of media files.
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend checking that you are uploading images in the correct language context. If the problem persists, please replicate the issue on our staging site here: WPML Media Staging Site.
