Background of the issue:
I am trying to manage product translations on my site hidden link using WPML. I want to prevent certain product titles from being translated and ensure that all product details, especially colors, are translated accurately.

Symptoms:
WPML sometimes leaves product colors and certain details untranslated, causing inconsistencies in product descriptions.

Questions:
How can I configure WPML to ensure that product titles remain untranslated across all languages?
How can I ensure that all product details, particularly colors, are always translated accurately and consistently?

Hello There!
Thanks for contacting WPML Support.

I understand your requirements. If the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin is active on your site, all product data, including taxonomies and variations, should translate easily and remain consistent. However, the product title field is programmatically registered for translation. So, if you start translating the product, you'll need to translate its title as well.

To keep the product title consistent across languages, at the time of translating the product, simply copy the title from the default product into the translation. Then, in the translation editor, translate the rest of the content and save the translation. This way, the product title will stay the same in all languages, while other data like taxonomies and variations will be translated properly.

The key is to ensure that the WooCommerce Multilingual plugin is installed and activated on your site, as it will handle the translation of all product data, including variations, correctly. To understand the process of translating the products and their data, please refer to this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/woocommerce-multilingual/

I hope you can understand. Please feel free to let me know if you have any other questions or need clarification. I'll be happy to help.

Best regards,
Prosenjit
