Problem: You want to translate the 'buy now' button in the Woocommerce Motta theme using WPML, but the translation does not work. Solution: First, ensure that you are using the correct string for translation. Sometimes, there are duplicates of the same string, and only one of them is the correct one that needs to be translated. Here are two methods you can try:
Method 1: Go to WPML > String Translation and at the bottom of the page, enable the checkbox labeled "Look for strings while pages are rendered". Then, visit the page where the 'buy now' button appears and return to WPML > String Translation to search for the string.

Problem: If you're experiencing site crashes when switching languages, it might be due to a PHP fatal error related to incorrect string translation in your theme's WooCommerce catalog file. Solution: We recommend enabling WP debug to check the debug log for errors. If you find an error similar to 'Unknown format specifier "v"' in your WooCommerce catalog.php file, the issue may be resolved by re-translating the problematic string in the WPML String Translation. Ensure that all strings are correctly translated to prevent such issues.
