Background of the issue:
I try to correct the Dutch translation of a page using Bricks builder 1.10.3 and WPML, but now the translation seems empty even if it's already translated. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

Symptoms:
The empty field should contain the current Dutch translation, but instead, I got an empty field.

Questions:
Why is the Dutch translation field empty even though it was already translated?
How can I sync Bricks builder 1.10.3 with WPML to correct the translation issue?

Hi,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

Please check this page and apply the first workaround.

After disabling the "I prefer bigger segments" option, please update the page in the default language and then update its translation.

Best regards,

Hello,

You tell me to apply the first workaround but disabling ""I prefer bigger segments" is workarount 2, not the first.

Which one must we apply for our problem please ? Workaround 1 or 2 ?

Thank you.

We disabled the "I prefer bigger segments" but our dutch translation field is still empty even if we already translated it before your updates : hidden link

It's really annoying because this site contains a lot of pages and it's already been fully translated, so I don't understand this bug. I can't imagine deleting the translations and redoing them for all the pages, given the number of pages and products.

Hi,

After disabling the option, did you send the page to translation via WPML-> Translation Management?

Also, please let me know if you update the page in the default language.

Best regards,
Osama

Hello,

Could you show us via Print screen what you mean by "did you send the page to translation via WPML-> Translation Management" please ? I'm not sure to understand.

Thank you.

Hello,

I look your print screen, we were in the same area but we do not understand what you mean by "send the page to translation", we do not see this button (see attached file). We never user the Translation management to translate our website. We translated all the website via the page area and the WPML icon to add language.

Could you be more precise to show us where is the "send the page to translatation" since the page is already translated from EN hidden link to NL hidden link ?

When we select the "About us" english page in the Translation Management, we do not see the translate myself bottom at the bottom. As you can see in our attached file, we only see "automatic translation" and a add to basket translator. any ideas ?

Hi,

Please select "Assign To a Translation". After that, please go to the translation basket and send it to "First Available".

After that, please go to WPML-> Translations and translate the page.

Best regards,
Osama

Seems better, I recorded to show you a small video where I use the technique of Translation Management where it works : hidden link

But at 0' 35'', I click again on "edit translation" to change again the translation and it seems not sync anymore again. I do not understand, we always use the "Edit translation" button, why is it not sync ?

Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for the video. Would you please clear the cache after updating the translation and check if that will fix the issue?

Best regards,
Osama

You were right Osama, it was solved by disabling totally WP Rocket, the purge function was not enought.

Thank you very much, and your help.
Take care,
