Problem:
You are developing a site using WPML and when uploading a new product in English and translating it to Arabic, you are prompted to translate the image titles, which you find unnecessary and time-consuming.
Solution:
We recommend two possible workarounds to avoid translating image titles:
1) Install the WPML Media Translation Add-On. This add-on automatically hides the media items in the editor by default.
2) If you prefer a manual adjustment, edit the function in your installation at

wp-content/plugins/woocommerce-multilingual/inc/class-wcml-tp-support.php

→

WCML_TP_Support::append_images_to_translation_package

. When Media Translation is not enabled, this condition runs:

if ( ! defined( 'WPML_MEDIA_VERSION' ) ) {<br />    add_filter( 'wpml_tm_translation_job_data', array( $this, 'append_images_to_translation_package' ), 10, 2 );<br />    add_action( 'wpml_translation_job_saved', array( $this, 'save_images_translations' ), 10, 3 );<br />}

To bypass this behavior, add the following constant to your wp-config.php file:

define( 'WPML_MEDIA_VERSION', '666' );

This will prevent the additional media data from being added to the translation package.
