Problem: You are using GoDaddy's managed hosting and encountering a 'cURL error 28: Failed to connect to api.wpml.org port 443 after 10001 ms: Timeout was reached' when trying to register with WPML's automatic installer. Solution: 1. This error typically indicates that your server is unable to reach our API (api.wpml.org) within the allowed time. It might be due to a temporary slowdown between your server and WPML.org. Please try registering again to see if the issue persists. 2. If the problem continues, ask GoDaddy to allow outbound requests to https://api.wpml.org. You may need to temporarily disable any CDN or security layers and ask GoDaddy to specifically whitelist api.wpml.org.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if the solution seems outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket with us for further assistance.
