We want to transfer WPML translation from base WordPress instance to another one. We will copy post from base DB to another DB. So we need to copy WPML translation for every post from base DB to another DB.
Is there any command to get all WPML translations for defined post?

Hi there,

There is no command to do this but you could achieve this in the following ways:

1. Migrate the whole site over this of course would also migrate the translations

2. Use a plugin such as WP All Export and WP All Import along with the glue plugin WPML All Import

See here:

https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/export-multilingual-websites-using-wp-all-export-wpml/

Please, let me now if you have any questions.

Hi Bobby,

Thank you for the answer. This is not the solution we are looking for.
We want to forward data post by post. We want copy a post to another DB and all translation of this post. How can I get all transltions for one post only?

In the database, the translations are attached to the default language using IDs

You can see more information on our database here:
https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-tables/

The most recommended way to do a migration post by post would be by using the WPML Import/ Export add-ons , another option would be using WP Sheet -> see here:
