Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate pages to Portuguese on twopurpose.nl and make them appear on twopurpose.pt. Here is the link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link. I have also shared a video for reference: hidden link.
Symptoms:
The text should be in Portuguese as well, but currently only the title is translated. I am sure the translation is in ATE, and the cache has been cleared (server, litespeed, and WPML) also synced the ATE and still not showing up.
Questions:
Why is only the title translated and not the text?
What could be causing the translation not to appear despite clearing the cache and syncing ATE?
Hi, the translation shows on the portuguese page now, BUT I don't know how Waqas solved it, so maybe it helps if i understand what the problem was, so i can prevent this from happening in the future.
Besides, there is another problem with the language switcher, for example on
hidden link
if i switch to Dutch (see footer), nothing happens.
The issue with translation was resolved by registering WPML again with new site key, as we did this during the chat. That was a temporary hiccup and you don't need to try that very often.
For the language switcher, I checked in detail. When I save the URL options in WPML -> Languages while "validate on save" is on, I get "Not valid" for .pt domain.
I've also tried by turning off "validate on save" and resaving permalinks, as well as, clearing cache and disabling language switcher cache - to no luck.
I discussed further with the team and they suggested following:
...they should make sure both domain work fine with WPML disabled.
If this works fine, and issue is only when WPML enabled, then something is wrong, either with plugins or config or server.
So please check by disabling WPML? Because in this case, if both domains don't work properly then perhaps you 'll need to check with your hosting or service provider for domain configurations.
Otherwise, please note that I may need to deactivate all other plugins and check with WPML only also, to check for any conflict or other misconfigurations kicking in. This may require some time.
Please let me know.
P.S.: I'll be off over the weekend and 'll be able to attend on Monday.
I disabled WPML and all works fine, website is both available with twopurpose.pt and twopurpose.nl. However, if im visiting twopurpose.pt (homepage) and I hover over the dutch flag in the language selector, the URL to the dutch site is still twopurpose.pt, which actually it should be twopurpose.nl.
Thank you for the updates and taking time to check all about it.
I discussed with the team further and am trying to reproduce the issue on my local environment, to see if I can reproduce the issue. Otherwise I'll then request the backup of your site. However, please allow me some time and I'll get back to you accordingly with next steps.
I prepared a local setup and tried to reproduce the issue, but here it works just fine. I've hidden link">recorded my screen to show the setup, configuration and working. The setup/config part in beginning is just to show and relate with real-world setup (i.e. domains vs DNS, or how they are setup and resolve). While rest of the video shows WPML and how it is working.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. I've escalated the issue to our 2nd tier team for further investigation. I'll update you as soon as there's more to it.
I checked this again and now the links seem to work. Yet, the translations on my homepage stopped working again. I deregistered my site and registered again, but it doesn't solve the ploblem. What is going wrong here?
