Eric	Background of the issue: I am trying to fix an error I am seeing on the homepage of WordPress. The error message is: <code> Database is limited Array ( [language] => en [context] => admin_texts_woocommerce_stripe_cc_settings [gettext_context] => [domain_name_context_md5] => 391cda9772e1f3205537c119fa95e4f5 [name] => [woocommerce_stripe_cc_settings]title_text [value] => Credit/Debit Cards [status] => 0 [translation_priority] => optional [allow_empty_value] => 1 ) </code>. Symptoms: The homepage of WordPress displays an error message: 'Database is limited'. Questions: How can I resolve the 'Database is limited' error on my WordPress homepage? What does the error message mean in the context of WPML and WooCommerce Stripe settings?

Occasionally, warning messages can appear as false positives and may get stuck. To resolve this issue, please follow these steps: 1. Click the small 'x' icon on the warning message to attempt to remove it. 2. Refresh the dashboard to see if the warning message still appears. If the message disappears, everything is likely in order. If the issue continues, please let me know so we can investigate further. For more detailed information, please refer to the following documentation: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-deal-with-error-messages-about-a-broken-table-that-needs-fixing/#problem-with-some-tables-in-the-database

Eric	Hello, thank you for the response. I am seeing the error message gone after closing it out. Do we have a way, though, to check on the site to make sure that the error is not still affecting the site in any way? In other words, what error is the code referring to?

Andrey WPML Supporter since 06/2013 Languages: English (English ) Russian (Русский ) Timezone: Europe/Kyiv (GMT+03:00)	Thank you for your feedback. The warning message you’re seeing is triggered by a specific string in the code that WPML scans for, typically as a precautionary check. In many cases, these warnings are false positives and do not indicate an actual issue with your site’s database or performance.
