Problem: My Footer in Astra / Elementor has strings from Mailerlite newsletter signup form. I managed to have them scanned by adding the plugin to the XML config section.
Now though, after the original English text was changed, it won't update in the string translation panel. The old English text is there, and the translation is not shown.

Solution: I searched in our forum about similar tickets and it seems Mailster plugin is not compatible with WPML, however I found a workaround for this issue: I created a test form that will act as the French form (for testing purposes only) and as I don't know Mailster I just leaved with the text by default. Then I edited the footer and manually switched languages using the admin menu at the top, which allowed me to edit the French version of the Footer. Once in the French version I manually added the shortcode for the new form and saved the changes.

How to show posts from other langauges

Solution:
In order to show the English language to other languages you should duplicate the posts/taxonomies to the other languages. https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/displaying-untranslated-content-on-pages-in-secondary-languages/using-content-duplication/

Further, if you want to show the default languages to other languages without translating the content, you can use display as translated method.

Problem:
Updating an old WPML plugin to the latest version

Solution:

1. Different versions of WPML can be downloaded from this link here, under your WPML.org account - https://wpml.org/download/wpml-multilingual-cms/?section=changelog

2. Please make sure that you first create a full website backup so that you are safe no matter what happens.

3. The oldest version you are able to download from that link is "3.8.3". After that, I recommend that you update to each new major version (3.9, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3).

You can also try to create a full website backup first and then update to the latest version and see what happens - it there's gonna be serious errors and not simple notifications, then please update gradually.

Problem:
I am trying to translate WP recipe maker

Solution:
https://wpml.org/forums/topic/how-to-translate-wp-recipe-maker/#post-4869113

Problem:
When attempting to connect content in one language as a translation of content in another language (pages and posts), some items do not show up in the list and therefore cannot be assigned as a translation.

Solution:
This is due to records in the database icl_translations that indicate that an item is in the process of being translated. This can happen due to a number of reasons but if you are certain that the items are not currently being translated, you can clean up the database manually:

Manually remove icl_translations table:
- Back up the database
- Run the following statement to find translations that are marked as currently being translated:

[php]SELECT * FROM icl_translations WHERE element_id IS NULL
- Find the records you are confident are not being translated and delete them from the database.
