Problem: You are using WPML with WP Recipe Maker (WPRM) and encountering issues where the recipe card in a translated post does not automatically switch to the corresponding translated recipe. Instead, it retains the original English recipe card, requiring manual replacement to display the correct language version. Solution: This behavior is expected as per the plugin author’s documentation. WPRM treats recipes as independent custom post types, and when inserted via a shortcode like
[wprm-recipe id="123"]
, the ID is treated as a static reference. To address this, you can use the XML configuration approach you've set up. After saving the XML configuration, you should open the translation in the WPML editor, search for the recipe ID, and manually replace it with the corresponding translated recipe ID. This manual step is necessary because WPRM does not support automatic translation or ID switching for recipe cards.

Problem: The client is using WPML with WP Recipe Maker on their food blog and is unsure about the correct workflow for translating recipe cards. When translating a post, the recipe card is not included in the Advanced Translation Editor. If the client edits the recipe card manually in a translated post, it modifies the original recipe because the recipe is shared globally. Solution: We recommend checking if the recipes are already translated, as this might be why they do not appear as available for translation. The client can try filtering by all translation statuses, which will show both recipes that are already translated and those that are not yet translated. If this solution does not resolve the issue or seems outdated, or if it does not apply to your case, we highly recommend opening a new support ticket. Additionally, please check related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verify the version of the permanent fix, and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
