Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where the 'widget_woocommerce_price_filter' duplicates when WPML String Translation is active, and attempts to delete the widget from WordPress settings result in it reappearing and duplicating multiple times. Solution: To address the widget duplication issue, follow these steps: 1. Navigate to Appearance → Widgets in your WordPress dashboard. 2. Find the existing 'WooCommerce Price Filter' widget in your sidebar or widget area and edit it. 3. In the widget settings, locate the language dropdown menu and set the widget to display only in your default language. 4. For each additional language you want the widget to appear in, add a new 'WooCommerce Price Filter' widget to the sidebar. 5. Assign each new widget instance to its respective language using the language dropdown. 6. If necessary, translate the widget strings by going to WPML → String Translation and searching for the widget's title or other text.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, we recommend checking WPML’s widget synchronization settings and the database for any duplicate widget records. Consider temporarily disabling WPML String Translation to see if the duplication persists, then re-enable it after cleaning up the widgets. Avoid repeating prior widget deletion and language assignment steps as these have not resolved the issue.
If the problem persists, it might be due to outdated solutions or specific circumstances not covered here. 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 necessary, please open a new support ticket for further assistance at WPML support forum.
