Problem: The client is working on a site under development using WPML and has encountered an issue where two URLs point to the same product category, but one of them should not be available as it is intended for the English site. Solution: We reviewed the site's configuration in WooCommerce Multilingual and WPML Settings and found no initial misconfigurations. However, we identified that a custom permalink plugin might be altering the permalink settings for categories and archives, potentially causing the issue. We recommend: 1. Disabling the "Custom Permalinks" plugin. 2. Resaving the permalink structure by navigating to Settings > Permalinks on your dashboard. 3. Checking if the issue persists after these changes. If the problem continues, consider setting up a testing site to replicate the issue, allowing us to troubleshoot without affecting your main site.

Problem: If you're trying to install and activate WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency and encounter a PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function icl_register_string(), this issue might be familiar. Solution: We recommend checking your database. Specifically, connect to your database, open the wp_options table, and search for the option_value "_wcml_version". Delete this option from the table. If the problem persists, also delete the entry "_wcml_settings" as it might contain outdated language information not currently used on your site.

Problem: You are using pure SQL to duplicate variable products, but the newly created products/variations do not appear in the backend product list or in the product edit page under Product Data => Variations. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend using the wpml_set_element_language_details hook to programmatically set the default language for your newly created products/variations. To batch add records into wp_icl_translations for these products, you will need to manage the related information in the icl_translations table. For more details on handling this table, please visit WPML Tables documentation.

Problem: The client's site is set to Translate Everything Automatically mode, but a newly created product category did not get automatically translated. Solution: We explained that automatic translation is only possible with the Advanced Translation Editor for specific content types such as posts, pages, templates, and other contents covered by our addons. To translate a product category automatically, the client should edit the original product category and then send a product with this category to automatic translation. Alternatively, creating a draft product, assigning all product categories, and sending it to automatic translation will also translate any product category not yet translated. For more details on translating taxonomies, we recommend reading our documentation here: Translating Post Categories and Custom Taxonomies.

Problem: You are developing a site using Elementor with WPML and want to auto-translate links in Elementor icon list items. Despite setting a glossary for the link and resending the page to auto translation, the link remains untranslated. Solution: 1. First, edit the translation of the page. In the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE), use the search option at the top left to find the URL. You can search for the entire URL or just a part of it. For more details, see Translating links with Advanced Translation Editor. 2. If the above step does not resolve the issue, follow these steps: - Go to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration tab and paste the following code:
- Press the Save button. - Modify the original page slightly and press the Update button. - Update the translation via WPML's Advanced Translation Editor. - Re-open the translated page to check if the links are now translated.
