Problem: Si estás intentando traducir una cadena con el editor de texto de Elementor al español y notas que el carácter ':' no se muestra en la traducción, además de que las palabras 'Palabra' y 'Entrada de glosario' aparecen pegadas, este problema es específico al usar DeepL en el Editor de Traducción Avanzada de WPML. Se activa cuando la primera etiqueta de glosario es de tipo 'name' y la segunda es 'general term', eliminando el dos puntos entre ellas. Solution: Para resolver este problema, te recomendamos seguir utilizando DeepL para traducir a otros idiomas, pero cambiar a Google o Microsoft Translation Engine para las traducciones al español. Lamentablemente, esta limitación está fuera de nuestro control.

Problem: The client was trying to import 1710 glossary entries from one site to another, where 100 entries already existed. After the import, the new entries were not visible, even though the import process indicated 'Glossary successfully imported'. Solution: We recommended the client to remove all glossary entries starting with a specific letter (e.g., 'A') and then attempt to reimport the glossary entries. This approach was tested and confirmed to show the newly imported entries correctly.

Problem: After moving the site from staging to live, the WPML Menu Synchronization still shows old staging site domain names in custom links, despite them being correct in the menu itself. Solution: 1. We identified that the issue arises because WPML does not automatically update absolute links/custom URLs in the String Translation. These are loaded from .mo files located in wp-content/languages/wpml. 2. Since .mo files are compiled and cannot be edited directly, we recommend checking the corresponding .po files that might contain the outdated URLs. 3. Alternatively, you can try the following steps: - Navigate to WPML > Support > Troubleshooting. - Use the option to clean up the Strings table and regenerate the .mo files. This might help update your .mo files to reflect the current strings. 4. If the issue persists, we may need a full copy of your site or at least staging access to further diagnose the problem.

Problem: The client's plugin developer is encountering an issue with the
flush_rewrite_rules()
function when deactivating a plugin, which conflicts with WPML, leading to a 500 error. The developer has temporarily commented out this function in the plugin's deactivation hook to avoid the error. Solution: We recommend that the plugin developer joins the WPML Go Global Program to collaborate directly with our team for a compatible solution. Details about the program can be found here.

Problem: The client reported issues with images being duplicated in the media library, specifically mentioning images named 'maxresdefault' that seemed to be auto-generated. The client was concerned that WPML might be creating these files. Solution: We clarified that WPML does not directly create image files; it only duplicates existing images in the database when translating them to other languages. The images in question were uploaded by a user and were start images from YouTube videos, likely auto-generated by the Elementor plugin, not WPML. We recommended verifying the image author in the media library and checking if Elementor or another third-party plugin might be generating these images.

Problem: The client reported an issue where HTML paragraph breaks were not being recognized in the Translation Editor, causing all text to appear in one block without proper separation in translations. Solution: We recommended switching to the older version of the Advanced Translation Editor where this issue might not occur.

Problem: The client is trying to translate strings in the Plugin RegistrationMagic and RegistrationMagic Pro, which are not WPML ready. Despite changing a string, the changes do not appear unless 'Mark string for Translation' is activated in String Translation. Solution: We recommend contacting the plugin authors and suggesting they join our Go Global program where our Compatibility developers will assist in making their product fully compatible with WPML at no cost. This issue arises because the plugin is not written in an 'internationalized' way, which is necessary for compatibility with WPML. For more details on internationalization, you can visit WordPress internationalization guidelines.
