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

Problem:

The client is unable to activate the 'Save media translation' button after uploading media in different languages using WPML on their site.

Solution:

We conducted several tests and identified that the issue is likely due to a compatibility conflict with the RT Framework plugin when used with the Medilink theme. We recommend:

1. Deactivating the RT Framework plugin and checking if the issue resolves.
2. If the issue is resolved by deactivating the plugin, consider this as a temporary workaround.
3. Contact RadiusTheme to request them to collaborate with our compatibility team to resolve this issue permanently. Because it is not officially compatible - https://wpml.org/developer/radiustheme/

You can find more information on how to contact and about our compatibility program at https://wpml.org/documentation/support/go-global-program/.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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 the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Hello,

Thank you for the updates and screencast. The Debug.log is not showing any warning or error related to WPML.

This may be a compatibility issue like this ticket - https://wpml.org/forums/topic/i-cant-save-the-translation-pic-from-media/#post-15554107

Therefore to make sure if possible, please do the following steps.

a) Backup your site first[Mandatory]
b) Switch for a moment to a WordPress default theme like 2025
c) Deactivate all the plugins that are not related to WPML
d) Then check whether the issue exists or not
e) If the issue is gone, activate the plugins as a group of three or four to find which one has an interaction issue
f) Switch back to the original theme of the site

Hello,

Thank you for the updates. This requires further testing. So it would be great if you could consider a staging site (a clone copy of the live site in a similar environment). So we can troubleshoot the bug without affecting your live site.

Hello,

Thank you for the updates. I had a few rounds of testing after upgrading to the latest version of the plugins and WPML Troubleshooting steps - https://wpml.org/documentation/support/wpml-troubleshooting-options/

It is working fine when only WPML plugins are active with the default 2025 theme. So I switched back to the *Medilink* theme and activated the plugins as a group of three. It works as expected when RT Framework is inactive. So most probably a compatibility conflict with this plugin.

Please check it now and let us know your feedback. Refer to the attached images for more details.

Hi Bigul,
I see, thank you very much for assistance. RT Framework is required plugin of the theme, what if I after uploading and saving necessary media reactivate RT Framework plugin, will it be good solution, will it work?

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback. You can try it as a workaround for the time being.

The *Medilink* theme and *RT Framework* plugin is not included in our compatibility list.

Therefore it would be great if you could contact RadiusTheme and request them to be in touch with our compatibility team. So we can avoid this bug in the future. Refer to the following links for more details.
