This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You enabled automatic translation with TPC and need to review translations marked as "Draft - Pending review" in the translation queue. However, when you attempt to review, the translations do not appear.
Solution:
First, ensure that your server meets the minimum requirements for running WPML, which can be found here: https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/.
Increase the WordPress memory limit to at least 256 MB by adding the following code to your wp-config.php file:

define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

Place this code just before the comment:

// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.

If your hosting provider restricts these settings, contact them to make the necessary changes.
After adjusting the memory limit, re-enable LiteSpeed and try accessing a review again.
If the problem persists, it might be due to other issues not covered by this solution. We 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 these steps do not resolve the issue, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.

I enabled the automatic translation with TPC but wanted to review before publishing. The site now has 131 translations to review, which I can see as "Draft - Pending review" in the translation queue, however, when I click on Review, the translation never appears. I refresh the page, randomly select another page and it will present the translation.

The website resources (CPU, storage, RAM) aren't the issue, and the website is responsive.

I also tried using the bulk approval, but that fails as well.

Enabling the LiteSpeed breaks the Review feature. The workaround is to disable it to complete the reviews.

Hello,

It seems the minimum server requirements are not met:
https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/

Could you please increase the WordPress memory limit (WP Memory Limit) to at least 256 MB? WPML requires at least 128 MB.

Your current values ​​are:
PHP Memory Limit 512 MB
WP Memory Limit 40 MB

To do this, you need to connect to your website's server and open the wp-config.php file in a text editor. The file is located in the WordPress root directory.

Add this code to the wp-config.php file to increase WordPress's memory:

define ('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');

Add this just before this comment:

// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.

The current values ​​can be viewed under WPML > Support > WordPress.

These settings can be restricted directly by your hosting provider. Therefore, I recommend contacting them and asking them to change them directly if the changes are not applied automatically.

After adjusting the limit, enable LiteSpeed again and try to access a review.

If this does not solve the issue, please let me know.

Best regards
Andreas

Changing the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT did change the LiteSpeed issue, but I seem to have some translation jobs that are stuck in the queue even though the translations show up as completed. Using the Edit button to open any of these translations displays the translations, and there I can see that the work is 100% complete, so I click the Save and complete button, but the job just goes back to the top of the list.

The jobs on your screenshot are all marked as completed.

Do you have any issues with translations not showing up on the Frontend or jobs not changing their status from "In progress" to "Completed"?
