Problem: The client wanted one page to display in a right-to-left (RTL) format and another page to display in a left-to-right (LTR) format.
Solution: We explained that text direction is controlled by CSS, and it is the theme's CSS files that determine whether a page is displayed RTL or LTR. We reviewed the client's site and confirmed that the pages were displaying in the correct directions. We also asked the client to verify the source code of the RTL page, which correctly included
dir="rtl" lang="he-IL"
, indicating that the RTL direction was set up correctly.
If you're experiencing similar issues with text direction on your multilingual site, we recommend checking your theme's CSS files for the correct text direction settings. Additionally, you can verify the source code of your pages to ensure that the
dir
attribute is set correctly for RTL or LTR languages.

Problem: The client is trying to translate the Shipping Methods into other languages but cannot find the strings in WPML String Translation. Solution: We recommend clicking on the blue button to scan for strings that are not yet registered for translation. Once the scan is complete, search for the strings again. If found, select the strings and add them to String Translation following the steps outlined in our documentation: Finding strings that don’t appear on the String Translation page.

Problem: The client encountered a 'Critical error' on their website while a page was open in the browser. The error was related to the WPML plugin and was caused by a missing auto-increment on a primary key in one of the database tables. Solution: We recommend checking the ICL tables manually to ensure that they all have at least one primary key and that they are set to auto-increment. This also applies to the
wp_options
,
wp_post
, and
wp_postmeta
tables, which should all have a primary key with auto-increment. If you're experiencing this issue, please verify these database table configurations.
